I want you to save as much money on your energy bills as you possibly can. My goal is simple: to help you make insulating and weatherizing your home as easy as possible.
I have three sections in my home where I plan on dropping the hot recirc line down into the cavity (between 16" oc 2x4's) and back up to allow it to get as close to the fixture as possible. I'm having a difficult time coming up with a solution to both insulate the pex with closed cell tubing AND securing it to the sides of the 2x4. I can't find any stand off pex support brackets. I'm curious if I split rockwool insulation in half and great stuffed the seems of the framing off if that would do the trick or work even better?
The metal walls are all that is needed. Concrete pools are more expensive. As long as you keep water in it then it wont cave in. You say its cheap but you dont know what you’re talking about
I REALLY LIKE your video...I have a wall in my master bathroom that is on an exterior wall. I would like to use your ideas that you suggested in your video...what type of foam board should I get. I have no idea which brand or R rating of Foam Board I should get...or the type of insulation I should purchase...Would appreciate your thoughts on the best product to get for the Foam Board and Insulation...thanks in advance for your time - greatly appreciated.
Your wire is to tight going to your boxes. Code is to leave 6 inches of wire after your last staple going into your box in case you break wire in your box, and you need to pull some excess wire into your box.
I don’t know what you are vacuuming the ash out of so easily. We have a shelf at the bottom of the chimney and a heavy insert in the box. Would have been great if you covered alternative situations.
If you want to make it easier on yourself don't use the machine for cellulose use the one for fiberglass its alot faster and cleaner but you need to know the secret how to use the fiberglass artattic machine.
Ok, so by this logic if air slows down heat, why put insulation in in the first place? Why not just maintain an empty wall cavity with 100% air to slow the heat down? There must be some part of the explanation missing as to why this works in regards to the insulation material itself and not just the amount of air pockets. Am I overthinking as usual?
Hey there....i just wanted to let you know that I watched your videos like 10 years ago and followed all of your advice when we bought our first home! I just realized I was still subscribed to your channel and rewatched all the videos for nostalgia! Anyway, hopefully all is well with you and thank you for the help and knowledge when I needed it!
You need aluminum foil tape and make sure to insulate that riser duct or else it will mess up ur drywall when it gets really cold it sweats ive been doing hvac since 16 now im 27 and ive never seen a riser duct not insulated haha
