Uh… does your room temp actually get negative? Cuz if so, you probably don’t need to worry about the PC you couldn’t afford, but should spend money and energy figuring out how to fix your heater. Negative indoor temps can easily cause death, this is actually not a joke and is a serious issue - as the above post said it would be illegal for a rental property to not provide heating for this reason. If you own your house, obviously it’s on you…. But that isn’t something to neglect, if your house is freezing, pipes will freeze, and expand, and will cause pipes to burst which will turn into a massive issue.

 

But, thankfully, no, the AIO likely won’t freeze as fast as pure water. So as your freezing to death over night with pipes that are likely going to burst…. You can rest assured your AIO is likely ok since its likely a glycol mix.

Isn't that, like, a legal requirement for occupancy? Either way, I feel like "fix the heat" is the right answer to the unstated question.

Who owns this house..? Because if it actually is getting below freezing, honestly anything below ~50f, that is a legal safety hazard. I am not sure at what temp it because an actual legal issue, but below freezing certainly is.

my father like we had some i guess humidity issue? idk tbh but a little piece of my ceiling caved in because it got wet, i should def tell my father to do something about it because in summer it gets extremely hot in my room like prob 90 degrees in the middle of the summer so i have to have my fans on full blast to keep it to atleast 80

I/the forum members are not in the business of telling people what to do in their personal lives, but seriously, if your room temperature is actually freezing, that is a serious problem and it has to be solved. If anyone in an official capacity knew that… child protective services would (and should) be called.
 

You do realize freezing is 32 degrees Fahrenheit correct? If it’s getting anywhere near that temperature, you have a very serious, no joke, life threatening problem.
