Misc Discussion

Section titled “Misc Discussion”

HVAC update - out for repairs but not all online. About 8 of them are units are heating, the rest are offline.

Q: are they looking at the heat exchangers? Yes for the units that were knocked down.

Tim suggests we get Carbon Monoxide detectors in the space as a safety feature. (Jay suggests perhaps something that ties into the honeywell system… Tim suggests changing a few of the honeywell thermostats out with the thermostat with CO monitoring)

Infra updated Cameras and merged them onto a server… security is back to where we were.
