1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,279
Speaker 1: All right, isn't that right? Gary Sullivan?

2
00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:03,680
Speaker 2: That's the last time I checked?

3
00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:05,640
Speaker 1: That was my name is, sir, I said, I'm with

4
00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:07,080
Speaker 1: Gary Salvan. How much better can it be?

5
00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:07,360
Speaker 2: There?

6
00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:10,240
Speaker 1: You go call the garden show, Gary Sullivan, lots of.

7
00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:11,879
Speaker 2: Guests and Ron Wilson.

8
00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:16,360
Speaker 1: You can't have more fun than that? And and and

9
00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:17,880
Speaker 1: what you ready to dive right in?

10
00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:18,479
Speaker 2: Did you?

11
00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:18,720
Speaker 3: Well?

12
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:21,720
Speaker 2: I am I'm just checking. Did you check? How's your

13
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:24,160
Speaker 2: energy bill doing? I'm reading horror stories?

14
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:27,920
Speaker 1: Well twofold it's horrible. And I'm sure you're well, you

15
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:29,520
Speaker 1: know you haven't have you checked even checked?

16
00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:31,560
Speaker 2: Your always checked mine.

17
00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:38,199
Speaker 1: It's it's unbelievably bad. Double yes. From what we have

18
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:43,800
Speaker 1: within the past, that amazing. Yeah, no, it's more than amazing, shocking.

19
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:44,519
Speaker 1: It's shocking.

20
00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:46,239
Speaker 2: And you retired, so.

21
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:48,680
Speaker 1: And yeah, now I'm just looking at the retirement so

22
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:49,640
Speaker 1: you know what can I say?

23
00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:49,760
Speaker 4: So?

24
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:52,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, so you know, you start looking at a company

25
00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:54,480
Speaker 1: that can maybe come and maybe help me out a

26
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:54,920
Speaker 1: little bit.

27
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 2: And that's why we invited Josh.

28
00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:59,200
Speaker 1: And that's why Josh Green is with us this morning.

29
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:01,560
Speaker 2: Yes after now, yes, it is.

30
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:03,120
Speaker 1: Run Midwest Energy Management.

31
00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:05,440
Speaker 2: Josh, Good afternoon, sir, glad to be here.

32
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:07,759
Speaker 1: Can I ask you this. First of all, you find

33
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 1: customers are a little embarrassed to have you come out

34
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 1: to their house. I mean, seriously, I'm not being funny

35
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:14,640
Speaker 1: because you know, you come out and you start walk

36
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 1: because you do the whole walkthrough, right.

37
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:20,080
Speaker 5: That's right. We use a Fleer thermal imaging camera. And

38
00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:21,959
Speaker 5: it is funny you bring that up because they are

39
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 5: a little shy about.

40
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:24,440
Speaker 6: Telling us how high their bills are.

41
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:27,640
Speaker 5: Everybody likes to think that they have the lowest bill

42
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 5: on the street, but that's just not true. So first

43
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 5: we use something called Fleer thermal imaging to find out

44
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:36,160
Speaker 5: all the hidden air leaks, insulation problems, things of that

45
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,040
Speaker 5: nature that could contribute to their high utility bills, so

46
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:41,119
Speaker 5: that we can make a proper recommendation on air sealing

47
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 5: insulating properly.

48
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 1: Now you do the cameras and all that stuff. I mean,

49
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:46,760
Speaker 1: you do the whole nine yards. As a matter of fact,

50
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 1: I brought this. I wanted to show you something, all right.

51
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 1: It's a friend of mine sent me this and you

52
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 1: may not recognize what that is. It's a beehive.

53
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 6: I see, yep, see what the bees are doing. When

54
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 6: was minus six degrees make nice and warm.

55
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 1: Now you need to keep and put work those into

56
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:03,480
Speaker 1: your energy efficiency program.

57
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll work the.

58
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 1: Hives inside the house. What do you think, Oh.

59
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:14,360
Speaker 2: My gosh, some of these smaller, older homes the energy

60
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,960
Speaker 2: builds higher than some of the big newer home and

61
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:18,959
Speaker 2: that's ventilation.

62
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 6: Insulation, everything all together.

63
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 5: So it's important to find a company that I not

64
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,520
Speaker 5: only knows about insulation, but knows about the ventilation and

65
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 5: making sure all the systems are working properly together in

66
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 5: order to achieve true energy efficiency long term. And the

67
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,680
Speaker 5: older homes, even the smaller ones, especially homes like Cape

68
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:39,119
Speaker 5: cod or craftsmen built homes, they're just not built energy efficient,

69
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 5: so we tend to see a lot more of the

70
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 5: problems that to contribute to those issues.

71
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 1: So you come out, you do the inspection, you take

72
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 1: a look around, you do your camera cameras and all

73
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:50,960
Speaker 1: of that. Then you come back to me with a

74
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 1: program and says, here's what I think we should do.

75
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 1: You know, if I'm on some kind of a maybe

76
00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 1: a budget, yep, there are steps that are more important

77
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:03,640
Speaker 1: than others that you would recommend. As we work through

78
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,400
Speaker 1: this thing one hundred per over a period of.

79
00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:10,520
Speaker 5: Time, so we actually show you exactly where the biggest

80
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:13,079
Speaker 5: energy efficiency issues are first that you should try to

81
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:17,600
Speaker 5: tackle first, and give you the most cost effective recommendations

82
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:19,679
Speaker 5: in order to get those achieved in like a cost

83
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 5: effective manner. So the biggest thing would be air ceiling

84
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,960
Speaker 5: before you insulate, a lot of people overlook at it's

85
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:27,799
Speaker 5: very important to.

86
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:31,040
Speaker 6: A hand can lights all that good stuff.

87
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 5: Penetrations like wiring, plumbing stacks, and making sure that when

88
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 5: we see those on the cameras we notate that so

89
00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:40,440
Speaker 5: we get them properly air sealed.

90
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 2: Sir, you know, it's mind blowing to me that somebody

91
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:49,840
Speaker 2: in a eighteen hundred square foot home, can they have

92
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:51,160
Speaker 2: a bill for eight hundred dollars?

93
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's crazy, but you see that all the time

94
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 5: all the time. We actually had somebody that having like

95
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:57,840
Speaker 5: twelve hundred dollars the other day. That's one of the

96
00:03:57,920 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 5: highest ones I've seen.

97
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 2: So when they invite you in, what do you tell

98
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 2: them that payback is.

99
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 5: So our typical return on investment is around five years.

100
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 5: It obviously depends on how high their bills are and

101
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 5: how much square footage we're covering and things of that nature.

102
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:16,480
Speaker 5: But we can see a minimum twenty percent savings off

103
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 5: their utility bills once we do the installation project.

104
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,600
Speaker 2: Do you ever write a five year plan for somebody?

105
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,479
Speaker 2: I know that's what Ron was alluding to, so you

106
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 2: know where it says like, I haven't got the cash

107
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 2: to do this. I know my paybacks in five years,

108
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 2: but can we do a five year plan?

109
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,560
Speaker 5: We do one hundred percent, zero down, no interest financing,

110
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:38,160
Speaker 5: and we do that for up to two years. And

111
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 5: then obviously we break it down for them as far

112
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:42,560
Speaker 5: as how much it's going to pay them back for

113
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,560
Speaker 5: their return on investment. We show them there right in

114
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,719
Speaker 5: the house how long the project takes to pay for itself.

115
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 1: Josh Green is with us today. He's from Midwest Energy Management.

116
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:55,599
Speaker 1: The website is Midwest Energy Dashmanagement dot com. Correct, that's correct,

117
00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:57,760
Speaker 1: and it's a great website and I went on there

118
00:04:57,839 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 1: last night. I was working through that thing is huge.

119
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 1: And when you talk about Cincinnati Greater Cincinati's insulation experts,

120
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 1: you're not just talking about blowing insulation. You guys do

121
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 1: it all. Including I've been raising the country and have

122
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 1: the farm and stuff. You get involved with agricultural insulation

123
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:18,600
Speaker 1: and barns and sheds and things like that as well.

124
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 6: That's right, that's right.

125
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:23,039
Speaker 5: We have specific products for specific types of buildings, and

126
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 5: one of our products is called ag barrier. It's specifically

127
00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:29,159
Speaker 5: made for things like pole barns, horse barns, anywhere you

128
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:32,159
Speaker 5: have like animal confinement buildings, things of that nature.

129
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 1: And you know you used to be the old pole

130
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 1: barn and of course they were drafting whatever. Now you

131
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,720
Speaker 1: guys come in. When I was looking at that last night, Yeah,

132
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:40,840
Speaker 1: that's pretty dark. Cool, seal that thing up next.

133
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:40,960
Speaker 7: Thing.

134
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,719
Speaker 1: You know, you've got a pretty warm environment without any

135
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:45,600
Speaker 1: heaters or anything inside those buildings.

136
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 5: And then in the summertime it also reduces the temperature.

137
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 6: That's right, because you.

138
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:51,520
Speaker 1: Get pretty pretty warm in those pole barn.

139
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 2: So very hot.

140
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:52,920
Speaker 6: It's all metal.

141
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:54,360
Speaker 1: You spend a lot of time in pole barns.

142
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 3: You know.

143
00:05:56,600 --> 00:06:00,599
Speaker 2: One of the things I've coined this winter was pay

144
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 2: attention to your house. It's telling you things.

145
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:03,880
Speaker 1: Yep.

146
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 2: You know ice dams, you know, snow melting on the roofs. Yeah,

147
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:12,000
Speaker 2: and I'm going like write these things down in a month,

148
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,360
Speaker 2: you're gonna forget about them. They're all clues, They're all clues.

149
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:18,160
Speaker 2: Your house is talking to you right now. And that's

150
00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 2: so very true.

151
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 6: And I couldn't agree more.

152
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:20,840
Speaker 2: I couldn't any more.

153
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:22,840
Speaker 5: So there's things we look for, like with the things

154
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 5: you mentioned, like ice dams, snow melting before the neighbors,

155
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 5: that will indicate that you have an insulation issue.

156
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 2: I got a question. It came up today. I didn't

157
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,919
Speaker 2: have an answer. He had an R forty eight in

158
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 2: his attic and he had snow melt on his roof.

159
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,080
Speaker 2: And I think he said he had ice dams. But

160
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:46,520
Speaker 2: don't hold me to that, but he was going on

161
00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 2: what I said, Well, you're under in slaty right, and

162
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:51,640
Speaker 2: I'm preaching that. And I said, the only other thing

163
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:56,040
Speaker 2: I can think of direction the sun and windows. Hitting

164
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:59,159
Speaker 2: a glancing blow with the sun can melt vinyl sighting.

165
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:02,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, do you think of anything else, I mean, aside

166
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,720
Speaker 5: from them, maybe a ceiling proper ventilation or having an

167
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:07,960
Speaker 5: air seal issue that doesn't have to do with the insulation.

168
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:10,880
Speaker 5: So anytime you have hot and cooling mixing, it can

169
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 5: cause moisture and things of that nature. And then obviously

170
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 5: if you have your warm condition air leaking out and

171
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 5: getting right to your roofline, it's gonna meld all that snow.

172
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 2: See. The air ceiling is really important, very.

173
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,239
Speaker 1: Important, And I don't think he mentioned the damns.

174
00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 4: See.

175
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:26,679
Speaker 2: Well, that's how you've become.

176
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 1: So that's how I know so much about home improvement. Yeah.

177
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:32,240
Speaker 1: See see. And when I was being serious when I

178
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 1: first said to are people embarrassed because you would come

179
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:36,200
Speaker 1: to my house right now we have a forty year

180
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 1: old condo that needs a lot of things to be changed.

181
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 1: I would be embarrassed that my list would be about

182
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 1: a ten page print out.

183
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 5: We'd come in with our cameras that look like a

184
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:46,680
Speaker 5: nuclear bomb went off.

185
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 1: It would it would unbelievable. I'd be ashamed of all

186
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 1: the stuff you're gonna tell me I need to do.

187
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:53,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, but the good news is it's not as expensive

188
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 5: to fix it as you might think. You know, the

189
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:57,920
Speaker 5: return on the investment is the big thing.

190
00:07:58,120 --> 00:07:58,240
Speaker 1: Right.

191
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:01,600
Speaker 5: We try to keep our prices very competitive, and our

192
00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:04,240
Speaker 5: insulation systems are guaranteed for the life of your home,

193
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:06,920
Speaker 5: as opposed to just blown in insulations about a ten

194
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 5: year product. It keeps settling, it's subject to heat degradation.

195
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:12,880
Speaker 5: Once we do our thing, it's done for the life

196
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:15,119
Speaker 5: of your home, and that's transferable if you ever decide

197
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 5: to sell your house.

198
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 1: Very very important. And you do crass spaces too.

199
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 6: We do complete air sealed.

200
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 2: Boy, they needed to the whole house encapsulation thing's a

201
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:24,560
Speaker 2: big thing though. It is.

202
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 5: Even if your attic is properly insulated, if you have

203
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 5: a lot of air leaks down in your crawl space

204
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 5: or basement, it creates something called the stack effect that

205
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,400
Speaker 5: pushes the cool air in and it just pushes it

206
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:34,280
Speaker 5: all right off the top.

207
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 1: I saw a story on the news last night about

208
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,960
Speaker 1: the people in cross spaces and where bears live. That's

209
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,240
Speaker 1: become a real popular hibernation areas to.

210
00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:43,800
Speaker 6: I didn't know they crawl in there.

211
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 1: They love cross spaces and if you had finished off

212
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 1: the cross space, it would be really warm in there.

213
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,200
Speaker 6: They'd bring all their cups in there.

214
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:52,280
Speaker 1: They have everybody in there.

215
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:53,559
Speaker 2: You got to seal it.

216
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, well that was the warning they said. They try

217
00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,360
Speaker 1: to tell everybody to seal up. Their pictures sealed up.

218
00:08:58,800 --> 00:08:59,000
Speaker 2: Yeah.

219
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 5: So the product for the crawl space is called Triplex

00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 5: Crawl Barrier. It's a revolutionary product. It's an air seal,

Speaker 8: You know in nineteen twenty five we started with a

255
00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:26,560
Speaker 8: screen roll screen. It used to be the Roll Screen Company.

256
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:29,840
Speaker 8: And the newest products we have today are surprisingly screens.

Speaker 2: Repair, I've been replaced again.

262
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:43,920
Speaker 8: Now we've got hidden screens that We've always had screens

263
00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:47,720
Speaker 8: that roll away on our crankouter case casement windows, but

264
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:51,720
Speaker 8: on double hounds screens on the outside, they get dirty,

265
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,640
Speaker 8: they wear out, they wear out people, the sun beats them.

266
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:56,960
Speaker 8: People take them in and out the storm and then

267
00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 8: get beat up. Now you can put a window in

268
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:03,120
Speaker 8: for Pella only from a Pella that in many of

269
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:04,839
Speaker 8: our lines we have what we call a hidden screen,

270
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 8: so it either retracts into the frame or it has

271
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:12,200
Speaker 8: a compressed uh screen that hides in the sill. You

272
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:13,240
Speaker 8: don't have to look through it.

273
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:15,560
Speaker 2: Well, I was just going to say. One of my

274
00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 2: tips I used in the winter time in Head for

275
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:19,720
Speaker 2: years is take your screens out. You increase the light

276
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:22,240
Speaker 2: in your house twenty percent in a winter easily. That's

277
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 2: a big deal.

278
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:24,880
Speaker 8: Yeah, So imagine not having to store them. They're just

279
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:27,200
Speaker 8: built into the frame and when you open the window

280
00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:29,600
Speaker 8: to vent it, screen comes with it. Now you don't

281
00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:30,839
Speaker 8: have to store it, you don't have to look through

282
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:31,680
Speaker 8: it when it's closed.

283
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 1: It stays clean.

284
00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:34,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, it doesn't wear out in twelve to fifteen.

285
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:39,640
Speaker 1: You didn't come up with that, slacking all those things

286
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 1: you could, You know that you could have.

287
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,079
Speaker 2: We could be retired like you if I would have

288
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:46,880
Speaker 2: invented that, you know, Yeah, you're speechless.

289
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:50,600
Speaker 8: Yeah, alright, it's a first yeah, bazillion dollar idea.

290
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:51,120
Speaker 4: You know.

291
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,840
Speaker 1: You know we talk about Pella windows, sir, all right,

292
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,679
Speaker 1: it's Apella does a lot more than just windows. We do,

293
00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 1: and I know we want to talk about windows, but

294
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,079
Speaker 1: you know again and we've talked before, but I was

295
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 1: on your website again yesterday. It's amazing what else you

296
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:08,719
Speaker 1: do Awnings, Awnings, custom windows, every shape Gary. Did you

297
00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 1: know they redid the reds, broadcast booth windows.

298
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 8: All those foul balls got them? Yeah, we put laminated

299
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,720
Speaker 8: glasses there. Oh, existing windows.

300
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:20,439
Speaker 1: Were falling down. Ours won't fall down. Remember when Bay

301
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:22,400
Speaker 1: windows were really hot. You know, everybody had to have

302
00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 1: a bay window. My parents would pay the extra bucks

303
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:26,800
Speaker 1: for the bay windows. Pella does bay.

304
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 3: Windows, sliding windows, bay windows.

305
00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:32,480
Speaker 1: What's the window that tilts out, that's a that's what

306
00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:35,439
Speaker 1: we call it on A. Yeah, I think still think

307
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 1: that's one of the greatest things.

308
00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 2: We had an old jealousy porch growing them those little

309
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 2: four that's but that's different, I know, but it's the

310
00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:43,199
Speaker 2: tilts out.

311
00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 1: If this is a Pella window, that's Pella made that great.

312
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:48,760
Speaker 1: It's but you all pull that thing out and then

313
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:51,560
Speaker 1: it could be raining, you know, like a Joe Strecker's house.

314
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:53,080
Speaker 1: He loves it when it's raining. You can hear the

315
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:56,200
Speaker 1: thunder and lightning. You could open that thing up smell

316
00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 1: the rain. It's my favorite window over like a kitchen sink.

317
00:12:58,960 --> 00:12:59,160
Speaker 2: Yeah.

318
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:01,720
Speaker 8: I typically see like twin crankouts or maybe a double

319
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:03,920
Speaker 8: hon kind of hard to reach. Put it on, looks

320
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:05,720
Speaker 8: like a picture window. You got better view and then

321
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:10,040
Speaker 8: pop it open and just like Rob that perfect.

322
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:13,199
Speaker 2: When you said, what's old is new again? You know

323
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 2: what I thought about?

324
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:14,559
Speaker 3: What's that?

325
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:15,960
Speaker 2: Black windows?

326
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 8: I'll tell you the gift that keeps on giving. Black

327
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 8: windows it's huge.

328
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:21,319
Speaker 2: Owen.

329
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:23,040
Speaker 1: I would say, if you noticed an increase in the

330
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,240
Speaker 1: request for black windows about a year and a half ago,

331
00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:27,040
Speaker 1: White House us.

332
00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:30,200
Speaker 8: Say it's been started about almost ten years ago, believe

333
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:32,720
Speaker 8: it or not. And over the last five six years

334
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:35,400
Speaker 8: we're talking about it. I've been I've been personally with

335
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:39,160
Speaker 8: thirty a little over thirty years, and I cannot don't.

336
00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:41,720
Speaker 8: I don't understand it to some extent why black is stuck.

337
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:46,440
Speaker 8: But it looks great. It looks phenomenal inside and or

338
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:50,079
Speaker 8: outside in It used to be very limited when it

339
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:51,559
Speaker 8: came out to where you could only get it, say,

340
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,400
Speaker 8: aluminum windows, and then people started putting it in. Our

341
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:57,600
Speaker 8: fiberglass technology has it and vinyl. You dark colors on

342
00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 8: some windows could be a problem, but the engineering taking

343
00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 8: care of that now so you can put black on.

344
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 2: Or lives in Charlotte in the historic District, tore the

345
00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:08,040
Speaker 2: house down, put a house up that was white with

346
00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:12,640
Speaker 2: black windows. I go black windows, and she goes, oh

347
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:13,280
Speaker 2: my god.

348
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:14,760
Speaker 1: It's beautiful black shutters.

349
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:16,520
Speaker 2: I guess she showed me again.

350
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:17,719
Speaker 1: So yeah, we've got it.

351
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:20,240
Speaker 8: We've got a new line's not here for the show,

352
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,120
Speaker 8: but we have a new line that will come out

353
00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:24,360
Speaker 8: later this year. That it's all aluminum, our first all

354
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:27,960
Speaker 8: aluminum product the Fellows put out, and it comes in

355
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,400
Speaker 8: like seventy seven colors, and the color they want us

356
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:33,240
Speaker 8: to display is black because it's the one that everybody

357
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:34,400
Speaker 8: wants and.

358
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,800
Speaker 1: Then you should display we are just that makes sense

359
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:38,000
Speaker 1: to me.

360
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:42,440
Speaker 8: Of course Garyott has three different black color of its

361
00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:45,720
Speaker 8: shadowy black, cold right.

362
00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:47,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh god.

363
00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:49,440
Speaker 1: So that's pretty select changing.

364
00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:52,880
Speaker 2: So that so how many different types of windows do

365
00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:53,440
Speaker 2: you guys make?

366
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 8: Well, you know, I think that's nine trillion combinations if

367
00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,680
Speaker 8: you if with all the configurations of course size offering,

368
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:01,040
Speaker 8: you know today's work.

369
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:02,120
Speaker 2: Wasn't that materials?

370
00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:02,400
Speaker 4: Oh?

371
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:03,600
Speaker 1: That that thing?

372
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 2: Well, because that's.

373
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:06,160
Speaker 1: That is a great question.

374
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:08,480
Speaker 8: So we have we're known for and have been making

375
00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:12,200
Speaker 8: the longest wood windows. So we have wood windows mostly

376
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:16,080
Speaker 8: with the aluminum exteriors. We still do wood steris for historic.

377
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:20,280
Speaker 8: So that's two types of windows right there. Fiberglass came

378
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:22,720
Speaker 8: on the scene about fifteen fifteen, eighteen years ago. We

379
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:26,280
Speaker 8: make a full a true fiberglass windows. Some companies mix

380
00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 8: wood fibers with fiberglass and do some other composites and

381
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:32,200
Speaker 8: what have you. We have a true full fiberglass product

382
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:35,960
Speaker 8: made in Murray, Kentuck people Internet, and then of course vinyl.

383
00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 8: The predominant material in single family residences is a vinyl window,

384
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:43,280
Speaker 8: and at least in most of the United States. And

385
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:45,960
Speaker 8: of course we have two different vinyl lines. We see

386
00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 8: there are different grades of vinyl. Obviously when you're thirs,

387
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:52,200
Speaker 8: there are there's a there's what the industry would call

388
00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:54,920
Speaker 8: builder grade and and it's really just the price point

389
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 8: Pela grade, and then there's peligrade and that's where we start.

390
00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:01,040
Speaker 8: Now we have our two fifty series, which is good

391
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:04,800
Speaker 8: for new construction, but it's really built for replacement like

392
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 8: those and all the colors and sizes on the ence

393
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:11,120
Speaker 8: casements will happen. Wow, and alluminum was coming, Luminem's coming

394
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:11,520
Speaker 8: this fall.

395
00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 1: If I have a house and you have a custom

396
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:18,720
Speaker 1: color windows in my home, storm hits blows out a

397
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:23,040
Speaker 1: couple of windows, damage, totally, no problem rematching, that.

398
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 8: Not a problem at all. You know, we've been making windows,

399
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:29,080
Speaker 8: like I say, for over one hundred years. There are

400
00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:31,720
Speaker 8: you know, eventually you get styles that you can't get

401
00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:34,280
Speaker 8: in service parts. But anything in the last twenty years

402
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 8: and most most home owners can always get service parts

403
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:39,440
Speaker 8: and we service our own products. So yeah, you have

404
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:43,160
Speaker 8: a storm, you have you have some even wear and

405
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:45,360
Speaker 8: tear just you know, they wear out. We've got all

406
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 8: the parts and pieces and a great service team, one

407
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:48,800
Speaker 8: of our best teams that we you know.

408
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:50,440
Speaker 1: The other thing I thought was pretty cool is that

409
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:53,880
Speaker 1: if for a lot of folks buying historical buildings, older

410
00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:56,920
Speaker 1: homes that that want to keep that look, that's hard.

411
00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,520
Speaker 1: How do you replace those you know, curves and all

412
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 1: that you guys have gotten into that.

413
00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:04,320
Speaker 8: We are totally into that. Uh you know, if you're

414
00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:06,000
Speaker 8: doing it by the book, which you should do.

415
00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:06,879
Speaker 1: We we try to do.

416
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:09,080
Speaker 3: You've got to be you got to go through the

417
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:10,080
Speaker 3: appropriate authorities.

418
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 8: You have to get approvals with the with the municipalities

419
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:15,160
Speaker 8: that you live in, and you got to have products

420
00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:19,000
Speaker 8: that are what the overriding uh board that oversees that

421
00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:22,679
Speaker 8: as a national parks association. You have to be approved.

422
00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:24,679
Speaker 8: And we are all all of our aluminum clad and

423
00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:28,200
Speaker 8: wood products are well not all of them, but they

424
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:33,280
Speaker 8: we have historically approved windows and it's all custom, all custom.

425
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:34,080
Speaker 1: Unbelievable.

426

Speaker 8: and all the trims and everything.

428
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:40,359
Speaker 1: If you moved into a home, you bought another home

429

551
00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:07,000

552
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:09,160
Speaker 9: if I could get my stuff out, I would love

553
00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:11,679

554
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:15,120
Speaker 9: barrier by offering the storage trailers and we can even

555
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:17,280
Speaker 9: provide assistance and moving some of the stuff.

556
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:19,320

Speaker 1: All right. So so so I've got it, I've agreed

568
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:51,919
Speaker 1: to it. You're gonna come out. I think you got

569
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:54,879
Speaker 1: like a four step process that you go through to

570
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:55,919
Speaker 1: put this on the my floor.

571
00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:58,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, So let me ask you.

572
00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:02,240
Speaker 1: First of all, is there a concrete that's too damaged,

573
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:06,239
Speaker 1: too much car oil, too much stuff that you just

574
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:07,120
Speaker 1: can't do this?

575
00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:11,240
Speaker 9: Very seldom do we run into that. But there are

576
00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:12,680
Speaker 9: some concrete you.

577
00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:14,159
Speaker 1: Know because you have jerries.

578
00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:17,760
Speaker 4: Yeah this is bad. Yeah, yeah.

579
00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:20,639
Speaker 9: Sometimes the concrete can be too soft to where you

580
00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:23,720
Speaker 9: know it's pin pitted and in eroded away to where

581
00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:25,520
Speaker 9: you know the product will stick to it. But if

582
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:28,639
Speaker 9: the concrete integrity isn't there, you know, it's you're not

583
00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:31,360
Speaker 9: doing anybody any favors by going ahead and doing it.

584
00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:32,399
Speaker 2: It doesn't hold stuff.

585
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:33,359
Speaker 4: I mean, that's right.

586
00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 2: How do you get all the oil up? The oil?

587
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:38,000
Speaker 9: You know, by diamond grinding will take some of the

588
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:41,280
Speaker 9: surface oil out, But there are enzymes that you can

589
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:43,359
Speaker 9: put down that will eat away at the oil. You

590
00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:46,399
Speaker 9: can even burn it out, So there's different ways.

591
00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:49,480
Speaker 4: No, I haven't used it.

592
00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:53,680
Speaker 2: Sometimes it's used in the oil oil fields. Okay, it's amazing.

593
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:57,080
Speaker 2: It is an enzyme, but it actually eats it right

594
00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:00,520
Speaker 2: and disappears right, So it's a C T clean.

595
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:06,080
Speaker 1: I don't know, but I eat oil and then disappear.

596
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:09,000
Speaker 2: It does, trust me. It's great for the waterways too.

597
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:10,919
Speaker 2: You know, people use stuff and then use the squirt

598
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:13,320
Speaker 2: water all over disappeared.

599
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:15,280
Speaker 1: It wouldn't be in the way.

600
00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:17,720
Speaker 2: They don't have to do that, right, it's all right

601
00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:21,440
Speaker 2: anyway I dignreze. But you know, so getting it cleaned.

Speaker 9: stuff like that, it's going to eat into the time

633
00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:48,879
Speaker 9: you have for the day. But you know, most residential

634
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,200
Speaker 9: garages are not a problem to be done in a day.

635
00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:53,200
Speaker 1: And those flakes or chips that you put in there,

636
00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:55,119
Speaker 1: you can pick colors, right.

637
00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:57,480
Speaker 9: Oh yeah, yeah, there's stock colors that we have, but

638
00:26:57,680 --> 00:26:59,200
Speaker 9: you can make your own piece.

639
00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:03,240
Speaker 1: Of America the UK the floor outstate, the floor.

640
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:04,320
Speaker 4: Absolutely all right.

641
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:06,280
Speaker 2: How does it hold up against salt? That's a big

642
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:08,520
Speaker 2: problem right now after all the winter.

643
00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:12,479
Speaker 4: Yeah, so it is. The salt will not harm it.

644
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:15,919
Speaker 9: The top coat is a polyspartic, so you know, short

645
00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:19,240
Speaker 9: of you know, you know, paint thinner, zyleen, you know,

646
00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:22,639
Speaker 9: something that's very harsh chemical. It's not going to affect

647
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:26,400
Speaker 9: that top coat, so it seals. So it just keeps

648
00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:29,560
Speaker 9: the oil or anything from penetrating through to stain the floor.

649
00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:33,320
Speaker 1: So I protection did you ask? I mean, how long

650
00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:34,919
Speaker 1: does that? How do you clean that?

651
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:37,119
Speaker 4: It's very simple to clean.

652
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:39,919
Speaker 9: You can just you know, use simple Green if you

653
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:41,439
Speaker 9: need it, but most of the time you can just

654
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,680
Speaker 9: pose it down. If you've got any stains or something,

655
00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:46,920
Speaker 9: you can kind of agitate it with a push broom

656
00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:49,560
Speaker 9: and then rense it off. You don't need to pressure

657
00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:50,560
Speaker 9: wash this product.

658
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:54,119
Speaker 1: Sorry, Gary, So yeah, I love Yeah, he likes to

659
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:56,120
Speaker 1: pressure wash. Yeah.

660
00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:58,080
Speaker 4: So it's it's very easy to keep clean.

661
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:01,000
Speaker 9: That's one of the benefits for that is, you know,

662
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:04,680
Speaker 9: it's it makes a really nice space because we tell

663
00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:07,280
Speaker 9: people like your garage for most people that park in it,

664
00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:09,720
Speaker 9: that's your front door. So that's where you ent or

665
00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:13,000
Speaker 9: into your home, and it's nice to have like a

666
00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:15,000
Speaker 9: really nice ope. You know, when you open the garage door,

667
00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:16,840
Speaker 9: it looks very nice, clean organized.

668
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:18,520
Speaker 4: So it's a very good benefit.

669
00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:21,360
Speaker 1: And it's more than the garage floor, right, it's the patio.

670
00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:27,119
Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, we do ye pools correct, Yes, right, stuff slick.

671
00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:31,040
Speaker 9: We have a quartz product that's actually gonna lead more

672
00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:33,760
Speaker 9: of like a sand texture, so it's gonna still mimic

673
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:35,840
Speaker 9: like kind of that broom finished texture that you have

674
00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:38,600
Speaker 9: on your existing concrete. And that's what we would use

675
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:39,600
Speaker 9: around like pool decks.

676
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:41,760
Speaker 1: Right, folks, want to get in touch with your website?

718
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:39,960
Speaker 1: an issue. Everybody loves it when he comes to their house.

719
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:42,720
Speaker 2: Chris, welcome again. I don't know how many years in

720
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:44,680
Speaker 2: a row this is that we've chatted, but it's been

721
00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:49,240
Speaker 2: quite a few. At least two minutes, at least two

722
00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:53,760
Speaker 2: minutes at least so before we even get started. What's

723
00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:58,520
Speaker 2: new in the whole heating and air and all that

724
00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:02,560
Speaker 2: good stuff terms of efficiency and efficiency?

725
00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:05,200
Speaker 7: Every year it creeps up a little. Yeah, I mean,

726
00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:09,800
Speaker 7: technology just keeps bringing it on. The new refrigerants are

727
00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:12,440
Speaker 7: out pretty much you can't get.

728
00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:15,120
Speaker 2: You can still hard to get the old stuff.

729
00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:17,480
Speaker 7: Hard to get the old stuff, but it's still available

730
00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:21,120
Speaker 7: to maintain existing equipment. But the new refrigerant is pretty

731
00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:24,720
Speaker 7: much full force now. Yeah, it's called our four fifty

732
00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:29,080
Speaker 7: four B or R thirty two, makes no difference. It's

733
00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 7: just another refriger We just.

734
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:31,120
Speaker 1: Work with it.

735
00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:33,720
Speaker 2: You that s at lasting longer or not as long

736
00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:35,840
Speaker 2: as a general I.

737
00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:39,160
Speaker 7: Would say, a general average air conditioners. You can still

738
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:43,720
Speaker 7: get that twelve, yeah, twenty I was at one two

739
00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:48,840
Speaker 7: weeks ago. And it was thirty three years old. Did

740
00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:53,560
Speaker 7: they ever use it? Same owner? He said, no, they

741
00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 7: keep it. I'm seventy seven, you know, a little warmer

742
00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:59,200
Speaker 7: than most. But he says, you know, maintenance every year.

743
00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:00,920
Speaker 7: And I said, well, why do you want to get

744
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:03,000
Speaker 7: rid of it? He said, the electric bills getting a

745
00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:04,040
Speaker 7: little too high.

746
00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:07,640
Speaker 1: Seventy seven, I don't know. Yeah, yeah, they well they

747
00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:11,720
Speaker 1: I'm jealous. My wife makes us keep ours at sixty three.

748
00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:12,040
Speaker 2: Yeah.

749
00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:15,520
Speaker 7: Well, the beauty is keeping community levels down down well,

750
00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:18,640
Speaker 7: round fifty percent or lower, and you can raise the

751
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:19,920
Speaker 7: thermerstead a couple degrees.

752
00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:22,280
Speaker 2: That's a good thing to talk about too, because it's

753
00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:24,960
Speaker 2: not just the cool air and the warm are it's

754
00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:27,200
Speaker 2: humidity in our homes. Humidity is the bigot.

755
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:32,720
Speaker 7: The big bugaboo is maintaining and controlling humidity. You talk about,

756
00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 7: you know whatever dry inert humidity control. Right, we have

757
00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:42,080
Speaker 7: fresh air dehumidifiers for community control, plus the equipment has

758
00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:43,000
Speaker 7: humidity control.

759
00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:46,360
Speaker 2: I think my humidity control is not controlling humidity. It's

760
00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:47,880
Speaker 2: so dry in our house right now?

761
00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:51,840
Speaker 1: That's is that an automatic? You know what? You want

762
00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:53,520
Speaker 1: to know how old my unit is? I have the

763
00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:56,240
Speaker 1: one that you get turned it on and off. Yeah,

764
00:32:56,280 --> 00:32:59,240
Speaker 1: you adjust it to whatever percent you want, but I

765
00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:00,720
Speaker 1: have to go down at the end of the you know,

766
00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:05,160
Speaker 1: and seasonally, yes, seasonally yeah, sometimes I remember and sometimes

767
00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:07,080
Speaker 1: I don't correct. Yeah.

768
00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:10,240
Speaker 7: And basically now our thermostats to take care of that problem, right,

769
00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:12,680
Speaker 7: they control the humidity summer and winter.

770
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:15,600
Speaker 2: Still got maintenance to do with them, though, And that's probably.

771
00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:20,200
Speaker 7: Something I know we've been opining for what twenty I.

772
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:22,600
Speaker 2: Know, I talk about it a lot, change the pad

773
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:25,680
Speaker 2: and if you're not getting it, maybe it's the celenoid

774
00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:28,120
Speaker 2: valve or something along nose linesday.

775
00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:31,200
Speaker 7: Back back in the day when my grandfather started a company.

776
00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:34,400
Speaker 7: Even then he opined that it's you know, the old

777
00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:38,640
Speaker 7: coal furnaces and some of the newer back then gas furnaces.

778
00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:41,479
Speaker 2: You know, have them checked every It's not a problem

779
00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:43,800
Speaker 2: until there's it's a problem. Ye.

780
00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:45,640
Speaker 1: Do people still have the steam?

781
00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:53,000
Speaker 7: He absolutely new, not new anybody existing older homes, Uh,

782
00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:57,560
Speaker 7: probably from the forties older, I would say that'd be

783
00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:01,640
Speaker 7: about it. Will steam and residential homes, but hydronic or

784
00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 7: hot water still doing them today. And very nice systems,

785
00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:12,560
Speaker 7: very comfortable, not really as complex as you think. But

786
00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:14,440
Speaker 7: you got to think a little bit on and how

787
00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:18,799
Speaker 7: to put them in properly make things work. Efficiencies of

788
00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:21,040
Speaker 7: water boilers have come along the way. They're up in

789
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:26,120
Speaker 7: the high ninety five percent range. They just don't blast anymore,

790
00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:29,399
Speaker 7: you know, just full heat. They modulate just like our

791
00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:34,440
Speaker 7: some of our gas furnaces do very nice, very dependable equipment.

792
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:40,640
Speaker 2: Now, folks at Zimmer, you're a carrier dealer, correct, and

793
00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:45,040
Speaker 2: you have choices. And I get asked a lot what's

794
00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:50,200
Speaker 2: the difference and the difference of different brands. Certainly we're

795
00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:52,000
Speaker 2: all familiar with the carrier name.

796
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:56,480
Speaker 7: Over the history of our company, originally starting as a

797
00:34:56,520 --> 00:35:00,680
Speaker 7: Bryant dealer, working our way through some other brands, uh

798
00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:05,680
Speaker 7: back in the day with ge and train. Is what

799
00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:09,240
Speaker 7: brand is going to take care of me? Or company

800
00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:12,120
Speaker 7: to take great care of our customers?

801
00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:16,040
Speaker 2: All right, That's that's the one.

802
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:20,520
Speaker 7: And we've gone through some other brands and it's basically,

803
00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:24,520
Speaker 7: mister Zimmer wants you buy it. It's your problem, you

804
00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:24,879
Speaker 7: know what.

805
00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:26,560
Speaker 2: How I answer that question all the time, and you

806
00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:29,319
Speaker 2: just answered it. So what brand should I get? And

807
00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:31,000
Speaker 2: I said, the first thing you do is you find

808
00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:35,239
Speaker 2: a good HVAC company because that particular person is going

809
00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:37,680
Speaker 2: to be working you know, if their top shelf, they're

810
00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:39,480
Speaker 2: going to be working on the people that are going

811
00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:43,400
Speaker 2: to stand behind their product because your reputation's on that.

812
00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:48,240
Speaker 2: Not necessarily carriers they're gonna call you, they're not called carrier.

813
00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:51,480
Speaker 1: If I don't have carrier, you'll still come out and

814
00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:55,080
Speaker 1: take care of me absolutely, Okay, hoping that somewhere mine

815
00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:56,480
Speaker 1: breaks down so I get a carrier.

816
00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:59,839
Speaker 7: That's that's the goal. But then again we want to

817
00:35:59,840 --> 00:36:03,040
Speaker 7: make that as far out as right possible, and that's

818
00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:06,879
Speaker 7: where annual maintenance will do. That will help you out

819
00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:10,400
Speaker 7: get more longevity. Now, we've been at homes where we

820
00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:15,000
Speaker 7: started when the furnace was ten years old, been abused

821
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:18,279
Speaker 7: a little bit, new owners. You know, we get to

822
00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:20,600
Speaker 7: clean up or like, hey, it's doing everything you supposed

823
00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:23,880
Speaker 7: to do. It's working properly efficiency. You know, then we

824
00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:27,680
Speaker 7: get the question how long is it going to last? Well,

825
00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:30,040
Speaker 7: since we did not install and everything, we're like, it

826
00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:32,600
Speaker 7: could quit this fall, or it could go another ten years,

827
00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:36,359
Speaker 7: who knows, and just try to keep it tuned up

828
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:37,560
Speaker 7: and working properly.

829
00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:38,800
Speaker 1: No different.

830
00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:41,320
Speaker 7: Like but when you buy a house with an existing system,

831
00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:43,600
Speaker 7: no different than like buying a used car.

832
00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:47,880
Speaker 2: Well, I tell people that, you know, with something like HVAC,

833
00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:51,600
Speaker 2: it's important to have a relationship with the dealer, yes,

834
00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:56,760
Speaker 2: and do the regular maintenance because when things break usually

835
00:36:56,840 --> 00:37:00,640
Speaker 2: during the worst possible time, the hottest day, the coldest day.

836
00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:03,880
Speaker 2: And I'm sure you swear by that. But if you

837
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:07,279
Speaker 2: have a relationship and you have its service, you're going

838
00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:10,480
Speaker 2: to gain I don't know what, maybe an extra four

839
00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:13,120
Speaker 2: or five years for that unit. Very positive said about

840
00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:14,600
Speaker 2: what the industry says.

841
00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:17,400
Speaker 7: Yeah, you can get you know, let's say a typical

842
00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:22,880
Speaker 7: furnace is fifteen twenty years. You quite possibly get an

843
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:23,840
Speaker 7: our five plus.

844
00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:27,680
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah. And then when you're you're and

845
00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:30,480
Speaker 2: then you've got a relationship and a business relationship, the

846
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:33,160
Speaker 2: trust factors there. You don't have to waste your time

847
00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:33,640
Speaker 2: run all.

848
00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:35,960
Speaker 1: Over you know the system. Yeah, you know what we

849
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:37,919
Speaker 1: did and you scared me. I think it was last

850
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:40,080
Speaker 1: year or year before when you told me that you

851
00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:42,239
Speaker 1: can actually set it up so you know exactly what

852
00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:43,200
Speaker 1: my system is doing.

853
00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:49,000
Speaker 2: Yes, oh yeah, So many applients are like that now. Yeah.

854
00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:52,200
Speaker 7: Yeah, today's world, I mean we have it to where

855
00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:55,040
Speaker 7: if you have an issue at your home, whether your

856
00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:58,480
Speaker 7: furnace or your air conditioner. We will receive an email.

857
00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:01,400
Speaker 2: Was it four blinks and you didn't change your filter again?

858
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:01,960
Speaker 1: Yep?

859
00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:07,279
Speaker 7: We get several of those too, Yeah, an alert that

860
00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:10,719
Speaker 7: home owner needs to change your filter. And usually within

861
00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:13,399
Speaker 7: a week it goes away. But if it comes back

862
00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:15,200
Speaker 7: at second time, we know it's a second time.

863
00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:16,640
Speaker 2: That's where the phone call comes in.

864
00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:19,000
Speaker 1: I know so many people that get that postcard in

865
00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:21,920
Speaker 1: the mail and it triggers something. They just I just

866

Speaker 1: called them and have them come out and service that thing.
