Yet another homeowner from Durham with an Apollo problem. Original Apollo unit, circa 89/90. slab foundation. Definitely has had efficiency issues for the two years we've lived here (a HVAC company was consulted, and ultimately, it was just a sales pitch). Now our living room is wet because of a leak in the system that appears to have been going on for some time judging how wet the carpet padding is and far it goes. is there, and where/what would a water shutoff valve look like for this system? is there a DIY list of easy possibilities we could possibly fix on our own? is this unit even worth fixing at this point? One of the returns doesn't even suck air at all (the upstairs one) and our peak AC and heat times have astronomical bills. no clear answer from previous HVAC evaluation that makes sense-- their suggestions were to basically try shots in the dark. does someone have a recommendation for finding a credible HVAC specialist for this type of unit? ugh.
