Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased to report that the malfunctioning circulating pump that effected hot water supply last fall has been replaced, and hot water is consistently flowing through the building. The malfunction was caused by a blackout in this area of Philadelphia, and our receipt and replacement of the part were unfortunately delayed by significant supply chain issues. We acquired The Republic late last summer with the intent of making upgrades to improve your quality of life, and the issues you have mentioned are informing our investment plans for the property through 2023 and beyond.
