1 00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:34,519 Speaker 1: Well, the weekend's upon us. Welcome. You're at home with 2 00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:38,040 Speaker 1: Gary Sullivan. As we take your calls, we're burying home 3 00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:42,360 Speaker 1: improvement again. Speak about it often being the biggest investment 4 00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:46,480 Speaker 1: in our life and if there's a problem, we gotta 5 00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:51,159 Speaker 1: get it fixed, a little five dollars repair. It can 6 00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:54,720 Speaker 1: grow rapidly if ignored. All right, Our phone numbers eight 7 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 1: hundred and eight two three eighty two five five any welcome? 8 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:04,839 Speaker 1: I Hello, Hello, Yes, Hi. 9 00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 2: I'm calling because I actually heard you talk about this 10 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 2: about a month ago, but I was driving and couldn't 11 00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:14,560 Speaker 2: write it down. I have I live in the Ohio 12 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 2: bad weather. My windows where the top and the bottom 13 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 2: one come together, just a few of them, there's uh, 14 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:25,240 Speaker 2: it's not sealed up real well and air comes out 15 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:26,479 Speaker 2: of it. And I wanted to see if you could 16 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 2: recommend a product for that. 17 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, so. 18 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:33,080 Speaker 3: Go ahead, okay. 19 00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:36,480 Speaker 2: And also my doors around some of them that the 20 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:40,440 Speaker 2: outside doors, some of them there's a little bit of 21 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,119 Speaker 2: a gap or I think probably the whole seal needs 22 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:46,280 Speaker 2: to be replaced. And along the bottom there's a few 23 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:49,840 Speaker 2: little leaks. If you could recommend something that used to 24 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 2: steal that up or what I should do sure. 25 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 1: So regarding the windows, the double hung windows, of course 26 00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 1: they have a lock and they lock the wind that 27 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 1: pulls the window to get but over time, you know, 28 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:06,919 Speaker 1: even though they'd locked, there's a draft. There's a little 29 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:12,799 Speaker 1: weather stripping in there that becomes you know, a little dysfunctional. 30 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 1: And there's a couple of products. One of them is 31 00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:21,520 Speaker 1: a very very old product and very very easy to use. 32 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:26,799 Speaker 1: It's called more Tight mo r t TE And what 33 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:30,680 Speaker 1: it is is it's a clay roping. So it comes 34 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 1: into spool and it's a clay and you it comes 35 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 1: in various you know, there's the roping is I'm going 36 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,720 Speaker 1: to say maybe like three sixteenths or a quarter inch, 37 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:47,360 Speaker 1: but the roping is attached to each other so it 38 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 1: can be much wider if you want. Anyway, you pull 39 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 1: off this roping and just tuck that right into that seal. 40 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 1: It doesn't harden. It's clay, and it just you know, 41 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 1: creates like a stopper, eliminates the draft and comes springtime, 42 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 1: you pull it off now to step up. I said 43 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: that was an older product. There's also a newer product. 44 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 1: There's one called draft stop and there's one called I 45 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:19,920 Speaker 1: think peel Away. It comes in a calking tube and 46 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 1: it is clear. Same thing you would do with any calking. 47 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 1: You can literally any colck the windows closed. So right 48 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 1: between the bottom panel, the ventilator and a stationary panel, 49 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 1: you just run a beat of clear calking. It'll stop 50 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 1: that draft instantly. Again springtime at your fingernail, just pick 51 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 1: at it and just peel it away and you're good 52 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 1: to go. So those would be the two products I 53 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 1: would have talked about for windows eliminating a draft. Perfect 54 00:03:55,480 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 1: for the door, I'm guessing that you need to place 55 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 1: the weather stripping. The kind I would recommend is one 56 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:12,119 Speaker 1: that comes on a metal or aluminum frame, which would 57 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 1: go onto the jam and the door would close and 58 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 1: compress that little vinyl seal and take care of your problem. 59 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,799 Speaker 1: It's good to have maybe two people do that, maybe 60 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 1: one on the inside, one on the outside. They can 61 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 1: position it with their hand on the and make sure 62 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 1: that door is closing tightly on that seal. Maybe get 63 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: a pencil mark where that weather stripping goes and tack 64 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 1: it on for the bottom. That's where the threshold is, 65 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: and there's a number of things. If it's an aluminum threshold, 66 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 1: there's a vinyl gasket in there which could possibly be 67 00:04:56,279 --> 00:05:01,159 Speaker 1: replaced and eliminate the draft if it's not that type 68 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:07,120 Speaker 1: of threshold. Just a just a little draft sweep which 69 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 1: is going to go on the inside of the door. 70 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:15,840 Speaker 1: It's got again aluminum and then a vinyl sweep which 71 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:21,039 Speaker 1: would hang down in a butt of threshold and it 72 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:24,279 Speaker 1: could be screwed onto the base of the door. That 73 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: would be you know, a quick fix for the door 74 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,359 Speaker 1: and eliminate drafts air. And I'll tell you what, people 75 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: don't realize how much error and heated air we lose 76 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:38,960 Speaker 1: without proper weather stripping. And if somebody's listening right now 77 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:44,040 Speaker 1: any and they don't feel real comfortable doing the things 78 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 1: that I just talked about, there's a lot of very 79 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 1: easy weather strippings. They may not last as long as 80 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,279 Speaker 1: the ones I just spoke of, but they come with 81 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:56,279 Speaker 1: a you know, a little peel away strip on the 82 00:05:56,360 --> 00:06:00,599 Speaker 1: back and it's a real kind of a spongy, heavy 83 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 1: duty rubber foam weather stripping where the door can just 84 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 1: push that and create the seal. There's those door sweeps 85 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:14,040 Speaker 1: at the bottom that I spoke of. They have those 86 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 1: where they're just a plastic type molding and you just 87 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 1: peel off the tape on the back and it's got 88 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:23,360 Speaker 1: an adhesive. You can just stick it onto the bottom 89 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:27,360 Speaker 1: of the door. Position it, you know, obviously straight and everything, 90 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:30,359 Speaker 1: but there's some easy products out there to get the 91 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 1: same results, and you can tighten that up fairly easily. 92 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:38,960 Speaker 2: All right, Well, thank you very much. I think I'm 93 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 2: gonna have to find a handyman in the spring. That 94 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:45,600 Speaker 2: helped me do the door thing more a little more permanently. 95 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 1: Well, you know what, you bring up a really good point. 96 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,119 Speaker 1: That's one of the things I've tried to emphasize the day. Again, 97 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 1: I'll use the phrase our doors tell us a lot 98 00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 1: during really cold or really hot times, temperatures, extremes and 99 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,360 Speaker 1: things like that, and making a note of that, because 100 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 1: you know, once this snow melts and we can all 101 00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 1: get outside and you start having fun, you forget about this, 102 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:11,720 Speaker 1: and you know, just starting a nice little list of 103 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 1: things that need to be corrected when the weather breaks 104 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 1: in the springtime is a wonderful way to take care 105 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 1: of these problems, because if we have a bad winter 106 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 1: next year, you still got the same problems. 107 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 2: Well, thank you very much, I appreciate it. 108 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 1: You're quite welcome, Thank you for the call. Take care 109 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 1: all right, phone lines are open. It's eight hundred eight 110 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 1: two three eight two five five. A lot of times 111 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 1: we have calls also regarding dreams that don't drain, especially 112 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 1: in the vanity. You know the story. I've talked about 113 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:51,239 Speaker 1: it many times, where you know, they just run very slow, 114 00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 1: and I'm talking about getting a zip at stripped down 115 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:56,120 Speaker 1: there and probably a hair clog and pull that hair 116 00:07:56,160 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 1: clog out. I'll tell you what. I've been fooling with 117 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 1: a couple of drains that kept getting, you know, slower 118 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 1: and slower and slower, and finally one day I thought, 119 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 1: all right, we're going to quit playing with a zip 120 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 1: it strip and we're going to take that plunger out. 121 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 1: And it's not a difficult job. If you get on there, 122 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: clean out the bottom of the vanity cabinet. You'll see 123 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 1: the mechanism that's attached to the stopper that you pull 124 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 1: up and close off. And there's a little nut that 125 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:32,840 Speaker 1: should not be real real tight. I mean, it doesn't 126 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 1: have to be real tight. You may need appliers or 127 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 1: something like that. You may not in this case, I 128 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:41,080 Speaker 1: did not. You can just unscrew this and you can 129 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:46,560 Speaker 1: just pull out this rod that is connected to the 130 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 1: stopper that's pulling it up and down. So you unscrew this, 131 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:53,440 Speaker 1: you pull out this little rod, and you can literally 132 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 1: just pull out the stopper. When I pulled out the stopper, 133 00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:03,959 Speaker 1: there was a a plastic disc that rowed up this 134 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 1: drain and it was entangled with all kinds of hair, 135 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:13,520 Speaker 1: and when I was using a zip it strip, it 136 00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 1: was tearing some of that and it was opening up, 137 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:18,560 Speaker 1: and it would go fine for a month or so 138 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 1: and it would get slow running again. So I literally 139 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 1: didn't have to replace the stopper. I had a little 140 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 1: knife and literally just cut and cleaned up this little 141 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:36,080 Speaker 1: plastic disc that was attached to the stopper, put it 142 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 1: back onto the stopper itself, attached it, and put the 143 00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:44,679 Speaker 1: stopper back in the in the in the drain, and 144 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 1: ran my little rod through. Made my adjustment, and I 145 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:51,079 Speaker 1: was back in business. And then I was up at 146 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 1: the hardware store and I was looking at different stoppers, 147 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,960 Speaker 1: and I did not I'm just like you. I did 148 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:02,200 Speaker 1: not necessarily want to replace the entire tailpiece and put 149 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 1: in a new stopper and all that. But I found 150 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 1: a really In fact, I bought one just to play 151 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 1: with it. It was inexpense. It was like four bucks. 152 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:18,200 Speaker 1: It was plastic. So if you are paranoid about those 153 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 1: mechanical stoppers and you're going like, I don't want to 154 00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:26,560 Speaker 1: screw this thing up. I just don't want to try 155 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:29,319 Speaker 1: and put this together. I don't want to replace the tailpiece. 156 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:33,839 Speaker 1: I wanted to go away. Listen if you pull that 157 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:37,960 Speaker 1: metal tailpiece out or the stopper in the tailpiece and 158 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 1: you don't want to connect that back up again. They 159 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 1: had these little things. They were white, so you know, 160 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:51,720 Speaker 1: and they're plastic. I mean they're inexpensive, but they looked 161 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:57,320 Speaker 1: really good. And it fit directly in. So it comes 162 00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 1: in a one inch and a one in a quarter 163 00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:03,800 Speaker 1: inch and it fits in that. It doesn't go down 164 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:05,959 Speaker 1: into the pipe.

I 234 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 1: mean there's there's several things. You know, from a maintenance perspective, 235 00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 1: that's one option. From a cosmetic look what you're trying 236 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 1: to get it to look like, that's another thing, and 237 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 1: I think that helps make your decision. You know. So 238 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 1: I don't know when you say a metal post, what 239 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,720 Speaker 1: kind of metal fence? Would you be thinking? That'll be 240 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 1: probably the more expensive way, but you know it might 241 00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:47,520 Speaker 1: be less maintenance. 242 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 6: Right, It's just like they've been doing lately. They just 243 00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:55,440 Speaker 6: got the post and then and then that's two by 244 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 6: four in between, I mean two by four, yeah, two 245 00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 6: by four in between, you know as far that. But 246 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 6: there's a metal because one of them, the homeowner before me, whatever, 247 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 6: they had metal and it ride it out and rested away. 248 00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 1: Also, yeah, there's also some cast aluminum stuff out there. 249 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to be a wise guy here, but 250 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 1: I think, Mike, really what you need to do is 251 00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:25,120 Speaker 1: go shopping, to be honest with you, because there's so 252 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:29,160 Speaker 1: many choices. I mean, you can get you can certainly 253 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 1: use pressure treated wood. You could also put a concrete 254 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:38,240 Speaker 1: pad and put the post on top of the pad, 255 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 1: or put the post into the concrete, and then you 256 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 1: could put a PVC slide over the you know, over 257 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 1: the pressure treated wood to hide that if you wanted 258 00:16:54,520 --> 00:17:02,080 Speaker 1: another look. You got steel fencing, you got cast aluminum, 259 00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:07,880 Speaker 1: which is very decorative. You've got composite fencing, and then 260 00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 1: you can use wood posts there too. I think you 261 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:16,760 Speaker 1: really first got to decide when you look at fencing, 262 00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:20,840 Speaker 1: it's you know, the looks are a lot different, and 263 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 1: you're that's the one I want. And then you're going 264 00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:26,040 Speaker 1: to get the cost, and you're gonna find out. Then 265 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 1: you're gonna ask questions about your maintenance and then maybe 266 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:33,920 Speaker 1: you go perfect, or maybe you go, no, that's more 267 00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:35,720 Speaker 1: than I want to spend on this. I think I 268 00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 1: would rather do this. There is no right or wrong way. 269 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,960 Speaker 1: I guess I'm you know, taking you. I mean, if 270 00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:49,359 Speaker 1: you get a pressure treated wood post, I think I 271 00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:52,080 Speaker 1: think that would be really good, especially if it was capped, 272 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 1: and even a composite fencing that they're really you know, 273 00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:59,160 Speaker 1: how they have the composite decking out. Now, I think 274 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:04,080 Speaker 1: that's a pretty good maintenance free product, but it's not cheap, 275 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 1: so I think you got some shopping to do first, Okay. 276 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:12,880 Speaker 6: I checked out the pressure treated and sometimes afterwards they 277 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:15,680 Speaker 6: kind of warp, you know, they had a bow in them. 278 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:20,720 Speaker 6: Redwood they pretty much stay straight. Oh yeah, if I'm 279 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:22,360 Speaker 6: leaning towards redwood. 280 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, if you're comparing, and I should have said that, 281 00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 1: if you're comparing redwood to pressure treated wood, go redwood. 282 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:38,639 Speaker 1: I mean, go Reday because pressure treated wood, you know, 283 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:44,439 Speaker 1: it's it's it's it's pine that's pressure treated, and that 284 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:49,240 Speaker 1: pressure treatment is only down into that wood probably I 285 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:52,520 Speaker 1: don't know, five sixteenths of an inch, maybe even just 286 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:56,760 Speaker 1: a quarter of an inch. And when people always think 287 00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:59,680 Speaker 1: pressure treated wood is like, man, it's awesome. I put 288 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,680 Speaker 1: it up. I let it age. It's pressure treated. It's protected. 289 00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 1: Now in Nevada where you're at that sun or just 290 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:10,159 Speaker 1: it'll eat that up, it'll dry it up, it'll crack it. 291 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 1: You'll stay that thing every every two to three years. 292 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:17,520 Speaker 7: Okay, So so my other question. 293 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:20,199 Speaker 1: Let me put you on hold.

Let's go back and 338 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 1: chat with mikey and another question. Mike welcome. 339 00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:51,240 Speaker 6: Okay, So I decided on going with floor by floor redwood. 340 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,679 Speaker 6: And so when I do the cement, should I wrap 341 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:59,160 Speaker 6: on it where the cement goes like with bitchitane? 342 00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 1: You know you can? You can? I mean that that 343 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:07,439 Speaker 1: would be helpful. Are you gonna bury it? I know 344 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:11,439 Speaker 1: you're in Nevada. Do you put in a concrete footer? 345 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,720 Speaker 1: Are you thinking about it and then setting the wood 346 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:16,720 Speaker 1: in the concrete? 347 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm gonna just dig the hole down two foot 348 00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 6: put it in the concrete. 349 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 1: Yeah. 350 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:24,199 Speaker 6: And then I was thinking maybe bitch pain around the 351 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:27,639 Speaker 6: top and then and also with the cement, maybe make 352 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:29,640 Speaker 6: a dome out of it so that way the water 353 00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:31,760 Speaker 6: will grain off of it does Yeah. 354 00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:34,359 Speaker 1: A little bit of a little bit of slope would 355 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:37,880 Speaker 1: be beneficial. And there's also a really neat product. It's 356 00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:42,959 Speaker 1: called geocil, and it's a tripolymer silicone. It can be 357 00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:48,879 Speaker 1: brushed or trialed. Obviously you would brush it's clear, it's uh, 358 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:53,720 Speaker 1: it's super waterproof. It's gonna last longer than the other 359 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:55,919 Speaker 1: and that's really what i'd recommend. 360 00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 6: Sweet Well, I really appreciate it. Yeah, everything I. 361 00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:04,720 Speaker 1: Needed, very good. Thank you much for the call. Appreciate it, 362 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:09,280 Speaker 1: all right, take care, all right again, You've got the 363 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:12,200 Speaker 1: phone number eight hundred eighty two three eight two five 364 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:14,480 Speaker 1: five spots for you. Al welcome. 365 00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:18,400 Speaker 3: Good to be back with you, Gary, Yes, sir, very 366 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:21,680 Speaker 3: one to pick your Yeah, good morning. When to pick 367 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:25,880 Speaker 3: your brain. Regarding addic ventilation, you spoke earlier at nauseum 368 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:28,399 Speaker 3: about it, and we live in the south and have 369 00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 3: a uh. I'm improving the insulation. I want to eventually 370 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:39,879 Speaker 3: get up to our fifty seven and I'm playing with 371 00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:43,639 Speaker 3: let me back up much. The issue is during the 372 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,359 Speaker 3: hot summer months, the att attempts get up to about 373 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:50,359 Speaker 3: one hundred, approaching one hundred and forty high forty. 374 00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 1: I like that. 375 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:55,359 Speaker 3: The previous show you mentioned about one ten being a 376 00:24:55,400 --> 00:25:00,000 Speaker 3: good goal to try to achieve, so the only one 377 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:07,440 Speaker 3: I haven't been able to. There's adequate ridge betting and 378 00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:13,000 Speaker 3: softwa betting, you know, for the aspects that you've spoken about. Well, 379 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:16,639 Speaker 3: my question to you is I looked at uh attic 380 00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:21,880 Speaker 3: fans Okay, I could install one in the trap door 381 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:27,679 Speaker 3: in the garage and then another uh strategically placed in 382 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 3: the attic to induce air flow kind of if you 383 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:35,480 Speaker 3: will counterclockwise the airflow to eliminate or to attempt to 384 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:38,560 Speaker 3: reduce the attic temperature to the more tolerable level. Because 385 00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:40,960 Speaker 3: the where we live, the h v C is in 386 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,719 Speaker 3: the attic and you know, hundred and four day degrees 387 00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 3: in the air condichine don't mix grew well. So I 388 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 3: want to pick your brain about UH. I can't remember 389 00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:56,679 Speaker 3: if you discuss addic ventilation UH using a you know, 390 00:25:56,920 --> 00:26:04,600 Speaker 3: a high quality fan or I've done everything I can 391 00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:07,199 Speaker 3: for the installation and the venting standpoint, I feel, and 392 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:10,480 Speaker 3: my only option now is would be the an attic 393 00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:13,680 Speaker 3: paramatic dam Your thoughts. 394 00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:16,159 Speaker 1: Well, my thought first is I wonder why it's not 395 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:18,680 Speaker 1: cooling below one hundred and forty degrees. Do we have 396 00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:21,800 Speaker 1: enough air coming in to push that hot air out? 397 00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:24,520 Speaker 1: That would be one. I'm gonna just tell you what 398 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:27,400 Speaker 1: my concerns are and then you can correct me. So 399 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:31,199 Speaker 1: that would be one concern. The other concern is is 400 00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:34,760 Speaker 1: there something else where that ridge vent is drawing the 401 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 1: air from outside? And we're not getting a complete lift 402 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 1: of the heated air in the attic to go out 403 00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:46,359 Speaker 1: the ridge vent. Example, if we have a ridge vent 404 00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:49,479 Speaker 1: and we have a shoe box event, or you know, 405 00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:52,640 Speaker 1: a little vent in the roof that's two feet down, 406 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:56,200 Speaker 1: three feet down from the ridge vent, that ridge vent's 407 00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:59,959 Speaker 1: probably pulling air right through that vent in the roof 408 00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:02,439 Speaker 1: and going right out the ridge vent, and it's not 409 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:07,159 Speaker 1: lifting the air all the way down from the bottom. Also, 410 00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:10,800 Speaker 1: the soffage venting, if that could be clogged, maybe you 411 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:14,680 Speaker 1: have enough, but for some reason, you know, somebody painted 412 00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:17,640 Speaker 1: over it, there's spider webs that are clogging it, there's 413 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:21,320 Speaker 1: you know, insulation got over it. Is it? You know? 414 00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:24,600 Speaker 1: So trying to find out why that's not working would 415 00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:26,040 Speaker 1: be the first thing I would do. 416 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:31,280 Speaker 3: Good point, I can answer your question. The house. The 417 00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:36,159 Speaker 3: front of the house spaces south and there are three gables, 418 00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:39,800 Speaker 3: each of which has a triangular event at the top 419 00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:44,160 Speaker 3: of the near the roof, and it's probably just round 420 00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:48,440 Speaker 3: numbers eighteen tall, like thirty six wide, and there's three 421 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:51,679 Speaker 3: of those across the front. So I was I like 422 00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:53,919 Speaker 3: your we're kind of on the same page. I was 423 00:27:53,920 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 3: thinking maybe that those three gable ants are counter productive 424 00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 3: and that was the idea of the fans. That's, you know, 425 00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 3: to induce an airflow and push air out and of 426 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 3: course dry and push air up. And I on the 427 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:16,640 Speaker 3: this is on my Gary SOLIVM list to go through 428 00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:19,359 Speaker 3: and pop a couple of the SAB events is to 429 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:23,879 Speaker 3: ensure that panic insulation hadn't been blown over about twenty 430 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:25,879 Speaker 3: five years bald and we bought a use, so we 431 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:29,160 Speaker 3: don't know what happened in the past, right, But I 432 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:31,480 Speaker 3: those are two areas that I was going to address. 433 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:35,119 Speaker 1: Yes, yes, And I think that ridge vent is probably 434 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:37,920 Speaker 1: drawing air from those gable vents. 435 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:39,959 Speaker 3: I'm sure get the issue. 436 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:43,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, so you're not getting a full lift out of there. 437 00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:46,520 Speaker 1: But you know, having said that, a fan down like 438 00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 1: to the trap door and the garage and blown up, 439 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:53,520 Speaker 1: that's that's fine. You know, that's fine. That's going to 440 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,560 Speaker 1: help it. My biggest question is you may not need 441 00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 1: it once you kind of close up the other things. 442 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 1: If there's some in the you know, in other words, 443 00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 1: the convection system works, but there's got to be good 444 00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 1: balance and good airflow in at the right levels. 445 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, and balance is the key, and that that issue 446 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:16,280 Speaker 3: with the air with the top. You know those those 447 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 3: three uh the gable vents that they solve into the sun. 448 00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:24,960 Speaker 3: That that could be kind of back winding the air intakes. 449 00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 3: So we're not getting a lift, right, We're not getting 450 00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:31,920 Speaker 3: that convection airflow from the soffits. We might be coming 451 00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:33,080 Speaker 3: into the front vents. 452 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:37,200 Speaker 1: What you're saying, think about the attic as a chimney, okay, 453 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:39,600 Speaker 1: And your ridge vent is the opening of the chimney 454 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:42,640 Speaker 1: on the top. And if you took that chimney and 455 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 1: you drilled holes, you know, uh, four feet down on 456 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:51,120 Speaker 1: the chimney all the way through, you know, how good 457 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 1: would their drawl be in your fireplace? You wouldn't have 458 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:57,640 Speaker 1: any smoke could be coming out of those holes and 459 00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:02,000 Speaker 1: everything else. So I'm sure that's kind of I'm sure 460 00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:05,360 Speaker 1: that's what it is. You're not getting the full effect 461 00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 1: of it. And I hear it a lot. I read 462 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 1: all kinds of articles regarding insulation and ventilation. It's amazing 463 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:14,360 Speaker 1: how much ventilation is done wrong. And you know, I 464 00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:16,640 Speaker 1: know the old adage, you know, if you had two 465 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:19,000 Speaker 1: big gable vents. I grew up in a house they 466 00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:21,280 Speaker 1: had two big, great gable events. On both sides of 467 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:24,280 Speaker 1: the attic or on the sides of the house. And 468 00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:27,000 Speaker 1: my dad had a big old fan that just pulled 469 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:29,600 Speaker 1: air all the way across one gable vent, all the 470 00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:32,479 Speaker 1: way across the attic and exited out. It was before 471 00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:36,880 Speaker 1: ridge vents were even invented, and that attic was you know, 472 00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:39,000 Speaker 1: it was a hot attic, but it wasn't one hundred 473 00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:39,840 Speaker 1: and forty degrees. 474 00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:44,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, but he simulated that couch ventilation. You know, 475 00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:46,880 Speaker 3: it was just huge. That did the home. You have 476 00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:50,520 Speaker 3: any sofets to were restricted, We're relying on those ridge vents. 477 00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 1: It was just those yeah, yeah, yeah, on the gable events. 478 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:56,880 Speaker 1: He just, like I said, they had no soft events 479 00:30:56,920 --> 00:31:00,560 Speaker 1: back then. And uh, I was a young kid, but 480 00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:04,520 Speaker 1: I think now back that fan did the whole thing. 481 00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 1: Was a big old noisy fan in one that pulled 482 00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:11,920 Speaker 1: all the air from the other gable vet and all 483 00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:14,239 Speaker 1: the way through the attic, and man, it kept it 484 00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:14,680 Speaker 1: all right. 485 00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:18,240 Speaker 3: Life was good, Life was comfortable. Yeah. I did do 486 00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:20,440 Speaker 3: a little experiment. I set a little piece of I 487 00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:22,680 Speaker 3: lowered the stairs and put a little piece of plywood 488 00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:26,360 Speaker 3: up there and just set at a sixteen inch fan 489 00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:29,360 Speaker 3: up up there and you know what, it don't gone up, 490 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:32,160 Speaker 3: that didn't reduce the temperature. I'm going to say probably 491 00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:35,840 Speaker 3: about seven eight degrees. It took him from those high thirties, 492 00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:39,440 Speaker 3: high one thirties maybe into a one hundred and twenty 493 00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:42,320 Speaker 3: eight hundred and thirty in that ring. That's what stimulated 494 00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:46,760 Speaker 3: my thinking here about this, you know, the installing some 495 00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:51,680 Speaker 3: fans in the attic to create a you know, a 496 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:52,480 Speaker 3: good airflow. 497 00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:56,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, it'd be interesting all the time. If you want 498 00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:58,800 Speaker 1: to go another step further, just interest, it'd be nice. 499 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:01,080 Speaker 1: You just got some plastic, can cover it up those 500 00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 1: vents that you're you know, you were talking about those 501 00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:06,560 Speaker 1: triangular vents, and then put the fan there and see 502 00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:08,680 Speaker 1: where it is. Then I bet it drives it down 503 00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:09,280 Speaker 1: even further. 504 00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:13,000 Speaker 3: Good point. Good point. That'd be a good little test. Yeah, 505 00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,720 Speaker 3: I appreciate that. Any other Pearls wisdom. I know you 506 00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:17,440 Speaker 3: have other callers waiting, and. 507 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:19,760 Speaker 1: Oh, I think you just got to do a little 508 00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:22,960 Speaker 1: bit more experimenting. I think you'll get it rectified one 509 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:24,400 Speaker 1: way or the other. I mean, if we got to 510 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:26,360 Speaker 1: run a fan in there because maybe we don't have 511 00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:30,200 Speaker 1: enough soft events or for whatever reason. But I think 512 00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:35,240 Speaker 1: if you block off those triangular and let the ridge 513 00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:38,520 Speaker 1: vent do the labor. And you got enough air coming in. 514 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:40,880 Speaker 1: I think you'll be fine if you don't. If you 515 00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:43,160 Speaker 1: want to boost it and you know, crack the garage 516 00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:46,320 Speaker 1: door and put a fan in there. I think that 517 00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:46,880 Speaker 1: would help. 518 00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:54,000 Speaker 3: It can't hurt. Yeah, okay, good, those are Yeah, we're 519 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:57,800 Speaker 3: on the same page. But I appreciate you bringing that 520 00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:00,840 Speaker 3: that covering of the gable. That that would be huge 521 00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:03,560 Speaker 3: right there. That would take a determination. So what we 522 00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:07,760 Speaker 3: had there good, Okay, tell you what. I got another question, 523 00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 3: but I'll say it for another time and it's another 524 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:12,800 Speaker 3: subject and I'll let you get back though.

Hey? 580 00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:04,040 Speaker 1: Fine? 581 00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:11,279 Speaker 7: Those good The fluorescent lamp I've been fighting with for 582 00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:16,160 Speaker 7: a while anyway, they're called fluorescent lamp holders. One of 583 00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:20,000 Speaker 7: them out of four looks like the ear broke off 584 00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:23,320 Speaker 7: or something because they won't hold those those two prongs 585 00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:26,240 Speaker 7: that the lamp has. Do you insert them? 586 00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:26,560 Speaker 1: Oh? 587 00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:32,480 Speaker 8: The spring Spring series, Yeah, inside that I'm looking at 588 00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:37,520 Speaker 8: it right now, But the one looks different from the other. 589 00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:40,600 Speaker 7: The other two on the right side, and then the 590 00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:44,480 Speaker 7: wires are color coded. Of course, they're not hard to replace. 591 00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:47,920 Speaker 1: I think, no, I don't want to usually, I mean 592 00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:50,719 Speaker 1: I can't see it, and I'm assuming they're pretty much 593 00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 1: all the same, at least as far as I know. 594 00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:58,200 Speaker 1: You know, you shut off your electricity and then they 595 00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:01,680 Speaker 1: I believe, you know, the made a plastic and they 596 00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:04,000 Speaker 1: have a channel on the side of the holders where 597 00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:07,239 Speaker 1: they just kind of slides in and there there's a 598 00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:11,000 Speaker 1: little yeah those two yeah, yeah, and then disconnected. I 599 00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:13,680 Speaker 1: don't know if they screw the wire, screw on push 600 00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 1: in or are soldered on that I don't know, but 601 00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:20,400 Speaker 1: it looks like a clip. Yeah, it might be a clip. 602 00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:26,160 Speaker 1: I mean, so my point is, are they difficult to reinstall? No? 603 00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:30,560 Speaker 1: I think they would be relatively easy quite honestly. You 604 00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:32,400 Speaker 1: can bind them at the hardware store. I know that. 605 00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:36,839 Speaker 7: Yeah, but it costs four dollars for two of them. 606 00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:39,480 Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, it's a new fixture. 607 00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:43,040 Speaker 7: My dad used to say, if you don't know what 608 00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:46,440 Speaker 7: you're doing, don't that's it. 609 00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:48,360 Speaker 1: That's a very good advice. 610 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:52,040 Speaker 7: Al Yeah, And I was a kid then and I 611 00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:53,799 Speaker 7: don't understand it, but I understand it now. 612 00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:55,960 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, I guess the way to look at that 613 00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:58,439 Speaker 1: right now is you know it's not going to work, right, 614 00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:00,600 Speaker 1: I mean, it is broken. If we shut off the 615 00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:04,080 Speaker 1: electricity and we give it a whirl and we can't 616 00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:06,160 Speaker 1: get it fixed. You're kind of right back where you 617 00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:08,560 Speaker 1: were right and you're out four bucks. 618 00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:11,880 Speaker 7: You got it. Well, there was a guy that was 619 00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:15,160 Speaker 7: doing work on the other houses over here, and he says, 620 00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:17,680 Speaker 7: you don't want to call us, we'll charge here. Yeah, 621 00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:22,719 Speaker 7: just some ridiculous amount. I'll try to tackle it. 622 00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:25,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, try and tackle it or another way to do it. 623 00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:30,160 Speaker 1: And not to be rate electricians or anything. I mean, 624 00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:34,480 Speaker 1: they charge what they're worth, and they're worth a lot 625 00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:38,440 Speaker 1: of money. They're expertise and everything. But on something like that, 626 00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:42,440 Speaker 1: if I were to weigh or scale the project, you know, 627 00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:46,239 Speaker 1: it's not a ten. Okay, it's maybe a three. But 628 00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:49,160 Speaker 1: if you're not comfortable with it, there's handy men that 629 00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:52,160 Speaker 1: can do it, they're gonna be half the price. So 630 00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:55,000 Speaker 1: you know, just keep that in your mind too. If 631 00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:58,200 Speaker 1: you're not comfortable doing with it, find somebody that is. 632 00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:00,560 Speaker 1: But maybe doesn't have to be an elect attrition. 633 00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:05,480 Speaker 7: All right. One other thing was the condensation and the 634 00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:10,759 Speaker 7: big picture window. It's been there for almost a year now, 635 00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:13,920 Speaker 7: maybe more that compensation. You just have to replace the 636 00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:14,840 Speaker 7: whole window, right. 637 00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:18,120 Speaker 1: So when you say, in the picture window, it's in 638 00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:21,879 Speaker 1: between the two panes of glass. 639 00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:24,399 Speaker 7: I'm pretty sure there's two. There's got to be two. 640 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:29,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's So when you say condensation here, I guess 641 00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:34,280 Speaker 1: you know. You can have condensation on the outside portion 642 00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:38,000 Speaker 1: of the glass on the inside of the home, or 643 00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:40,160 Speaker 1: it can be in the two in between the two 644 00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:42,880 Speaker 1: panes of glass. It's probably in between two panes of 645 00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:45,080 Speaker 1: glass if it's been there for a year and it's 646 00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:48,560 Speaker 1: kind of foggy a little bit also, And what that 647 00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:55,399 Speaker 1: is is the seal has broken and it's allowed air 648 00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:58,799 Speaker 1: to go in there and that's creating the condensation. Yeah, 649 00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:03,520 Speaker 1: one option is replace the window. Another option is you 650 00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:09,279 Speaker 1: may be able to replace the panel of glass, and 651 00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:15,600 Speaker 1: another possibility. And this came out a number of years 652 00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:18,480 Speaker 1: ago and it hasn't really grown. It was a service 653 00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:22,080 Speaker 1: where they drilled a little micro hole and put a 654 00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:25,560 Speaker 1: micro valven and almost vented it. It was like eighty bucks. 655 00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:29,239 Speaker 1: And I haven't heard much about the companies that used 656 00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:31,520 Speaker 1: to do that anymore, but you might check with like 657 00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:36,480 Speaker 1: the Glass Doctor. That's a franchise, but anybody that does 658 00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:41,640 Speaker 1: glass repair or seal repair. But those seals when they 659 00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:44,400 Speaker 1: first started they were only guaranteed for like ten years. 660 00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:48,239 Speaker 1: Now they're twenty years. Sometimes they're even lifetime. So we 661 00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:51,760 Speaker 1: weren't quite there yet. And there certainly is see seal 662 00:41:51,920 --> 00:41:55,360 Speaker 1: failure and you might be able to replace that panel 663 00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:58,839 Speaker 1: rather than doing the whole window, so you know, try 664 00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:01,800 Speaker 1: the glass doctor or some it gets into window repair. 665 00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:06,920 Speaker 7: Thank you. I'm sure glad you have a show because 666 00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:10,759 Speaker 7: that's more information I had fifteen minutes ago. 667 00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:14,359 Speaker 1: I'll tell you very good.

And when they first started, well, 672 00:42:29,360 --> 00:42:33,640 Speaker 1: you know, I'm gonna say, I don't know, replacement windows. 673 00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:36,560 Speaker 1: When did we really start selling a lot of replacements? 674 00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:41,000 Speaker 1: I don't know before my time might be seventy years ago. 675 00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:46,600 Speaker 1: But you know, over the years, the quality of replacement 676 00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:51,800 Speaker 1: windows has just increased dramatically. Right, But in the beginning, 677 00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:56,520 Speaker 1: you know, you get ten years out of a seal, 678 00:42:57,200 --> 00:43:00,319 Speaker 1: and boy, and whether like we're having a cross the 679 00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:04,239 Speaker 1: country right now, really cold weather, a lot of that 680 00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:07,920 Speaker 1: expansion contraction and take place and it break the seals. 681 00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:11,560 Speaker 1: In fact, I even remember back early in the days 682 00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:16,960 Speaker 1: where windows would even crack. Double pane windows would sometimes crack. 683 00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:21,279 Speaker 1: There'd be so much movement. And but yeah, we don't 684 00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:23,640 Speaker 1: get the seal failure as much as we used to. 685 00:43:23,680 --> 00:43:28,160 Speaker 1: In fact, replacement windows.
