So, I just moved to Atlanta from Michigan into an apartment owned buy a guy who had to move to california for a job (So really, it's a condo, but I'm renting from him)
Anyways, it's older, but recently renovated and overall pretty nice however there is one problem. It has central air that works (it's cold), however, all the registers are on the floor, and so is the air return. This means, that all the cold air is at the floor, and just gets sucked down the return and the A/C runs more than it should. Its always colder at the floor than standing up. (quite noticeably) How can I fix this? fans blowing the air from the registers up? Can you get fans that go into the floor registers to get the air flowing more? Any other ideas?
The return also is right beneath the thermostat, which I don't think helps matters. (at least, I'm pretty sure it's the return, I haven't seen any other vents that could play the part)
