Hey Friends!
I’m preparing to replace all the interior doors in my apartment (Chicago), and I am wondering if the laundry and furnace rooms require special doors.
Ideally, I would love to slap some solid core doors on there to reduce sound, but it’s unclear to me if I need to install doors with ventilation, and if so, how much.
Does anyone know what best practices are here?
Thank you all <3
We are replacing the doors because, currently, we have a bunch of cheap, flat, hollow-cored doors that look terrible. We wanted to upgrade to some nicer doors. Both rooms currently have hollow-core doors with a small Louvered panel at the bottom.
Gotcha. I definitely do recommend solid core doors. The flippers I bought my place from made a lot of questionable choices, mostly driven by saving a buck, but they did install solid core doors everywhere and it makes a big difference.
