Air Conditioning Unit

Hi All,

Dealing with an issue at the moment and would like some advice.

I currently live in a unit that is located above shops which was fine until a new shop opened underneath me.

The air conditioning unit for the shop is on top of my roof. The air conditioning unit is old and has now started a very audible, very annoying vibrating noise. The new tennants run their air conditioning constantly its on from 9am till 9:30pm.

I wrote to my strata company and complainted and they sent a serviceman out who “insulated” it to the best of his ability and advised me he was going to recommend they get a new unit as the existing one was very old. Eventually strata came back to me and said the quote was $6,000+ and therefore not approved.

I might also add that my units strata is $850 per quarter. We have no lifts, no facilities nothing. I must admit i didnt think about this when i purchased although when i purchased the strata was $650pq.

What more can i do? I cant stand the noise its driving me mad!! Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
