The Desk Was Restricting Air Flow

The Desk Was Restricting Air Flow

Nick September 25, 2023

Last week, I was promoted at labor plus I was happy! Not only did I gain a spend money increase, even though I was given a private office space. The office was what I was most excited about because I’d always worked in a shared area with all the people else. I was also excited because the private office had its own heat plus air system plus thermostat that I would have access to 24/7. One of the worst things about the shared office space was that there was no control over the thermostat. One of the employers had access to the thermostat plus it was locked by a clear protective box so that nobody could change it. One of the first things that I did when I moved all of my things into the office was change the thermostat settings because I could. I adjusted the furnace up a few degrees plus I heard the heat trying to enter my space. As I was sitting at my desk though, I observed that the furnace would kick on plus only run for a moment before shutting off again. The temperature of the office wasn’t adjusting like I had set it to. I walked about the room plus tried to find the problem, when I observed that there was a huge reason the temperature wasn’t changing. The back of my desk was covering the air vent on the wall so the air couldn’t enter! This was confusing the furnace plus causing issues. Thankfully, once I moved the desk to a new position, the furnace started heating the room properly again.
