And I hope everybody got 19 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:37,399 Speaker 1: through the snow, got through the cold snap, and now 20 00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:41,679 Speaker 1: we're warming up. So I don't know even today after 21 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:46,840 Speaker 1: the holiday Christmas, after Christmas, at least, it's looking pretty 22 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 1: nice where I met. So you know, by that time, 23 00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 1: we'll all be the you know, the fatted calf, and 24 00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 1: we'll be looking for something to do. So well, let's 25 00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 1: kind of make a list of things we can do 26 00:01:58,000 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 1: if it's going to be warm in your area of 27 00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 1: the day after Christmas or two days after Christmas, and 28 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 1: in other words, a little break in the action, talk 29 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 1: a little bit about some things we can check on 30 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 1: the outside of the house. Yesterday I was telling the 31 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 1: story and gosh, it's just it's just funny how things 32 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 1: you can never let your guard down in a way, 33 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 1: you can never quit looking at what could be going 34 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 1: on wrong in your house. And it was it was crazy. 35 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:28,959 Speaker 1: I was pulling in the driveway and I noticed underneath 36 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:33,800 Speaker 1: the dryer vent the brick was all wet. And I 37 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 1: get it. You're blowing out hot moist air through the 38 00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:39,919 Speaker 1: vent and you know it's cold outside. You get a 39 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: little condensation. Maybe that brick should be wet. I don't know. 40 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:44,760 Speaker 1: I looked at it. I looked at it twice. I 41 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:46,640 Speaker 1: kind of stopped the car, looked at it a little 42 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 1: closer and where the screen is at the exit point 43 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: of the vent, I saw some a little lin. I 44 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 1: pulled the car in the garage and I was trying 45 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 1: to think about not going out there and looking closer, 46 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:05,080 Speaker 1: but it was kind of like you better look. So 47 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:10,120 Speaker 1: I went out and it was amazing what I found, 48 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:14,520 Speaker 1: quite honestly. I pulled the screen out and it slides 49 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:17,640 Speaker 1: right out. There's a little channel there and periodically I'll 50 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 1: clean it out. And as I pulled it out, I 51 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 1: don't know what is that maybe maybe three inches by 52 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 1: three inches, two inches by two inches something like that. 53 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 1: There was a layer of lint that was probably three 54 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 1: ace to a half inch thick. I don't kidding, I'm 55 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 1: not kidding, and sopping wet and every every you know, 56 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 1: every inch of that surface was covered. So I scraped 57 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,920 Speaker 1: it out with my hand, and like I said, it 58 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 1: was ringing wet. I mean it was who was not 59 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 1: in good shape, and had about the size of a 60 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 1: small snowball of lint in my hand and went in 61 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 1: pitched it in the trash can, and I walked in 62 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 1: and my wife was doing had the dryer run it, 63 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 1: And I said, hey, Sue, if you had trouble with 64 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 1: the clothes drying. And she says, man, that's funny you 65 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:22,920 Speaker 1: mentioned I was just going to tell you there's something 66 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:29,039 Speaker 1: wrong with his dryer. I said, well, it's fixed, and 67 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,800 Speaker 1: she was, what do you mean? And I was telling 68 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 1: her how much lint was in there, and I was 69 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 1: asking her about the inside lint filter and she goes, well, 70 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 1: I cleaned that up before I use it every time 71 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 1: I used the dryer. Said that's good, and she goes, 72 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:51,240 Speaker 1: you think we need to have the the pipe actually 73 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: cleaned out, and I said, you know, I don't think so. 74 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:57,600 Speaker 1: It's pretty short, there's just one little turn, but I'll 75 00:04:57,680 --> 00:04:59,839 Speaker 1: keep an eye on it. I actually left that screen 76 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,840 Speaker 1: out for about an hour and there was a couple 77 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 1: of little specks that kind of blew out of the 78 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 1: vent without the screen, and I said, I'll check it 79 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 1: in the next couple of days, let me know if 80 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 1: there's an improvement, let me know if it's still not 81 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:19,600 Speaker 1: quite right. And after a couple loads of drying, she's like, man, 82 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:25,479 Speaker 1: what a difference this makes, So put that on your checklist. 83 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:29,279 Speaker 1: It is easy as heck to forget about that, and 84 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:32,040 Speaker 1: especially when the weather kind of goes south on us 85 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 1: and the telltale signed quite honestly outside of seeing it, 86 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:41,919 Speaker 1: which we are lucky, and she was getting ready to 87 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 1: tell me there was something wrong with the dryer, and 88 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:49,600 Speaker 1: of course when your clothes aren't drying properly, there is 89 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 1: a good chance that there is a problem with the 90 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:58,240 Speaker 1: venting in the vent pipe. Years ago, a neighborhead a problem. 91 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 1: And here's the problem. Not only does it not dry 92 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 1: the clothes, so you end up running the dryer longer 93 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:08,120 Speaker 1: and longer and longer, and it costs energy. Of course 94 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:13,359 Speaker 1: that's just just just an energy hog, but also you 95 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 1: can have the problem where it's not working in the 96 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 1: motor overheats. And years and years ago, one of my 97 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 1: neighbors across the street, I just actually moved into the house, 98 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:28,360 Speaker 1: and that's exactly what happened. I was out mowing the 99 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 1: grass and I see smoke coming out. It was in 100 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 1: the springtime, I think, and we had to everybody had 101 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 1: their windows open, and they had the laundry room was 102 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 1: actually in the front of the house, which is kind 103 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 1: of strange, and it was I could see smoke coming 104 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:48,480 Speaker 1: out of the window, and I grabbed the fire extinguisher, 105 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:55,200 Speaker 1: ran across the street and I shouldn't. I shouldn't say 106 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 1: this gives somebody an idea, But anyway, it's an electric drawing. 107 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 1: He's standing with the hose and that's a big no no, 108 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:06,839 Speaker 1: of course, And the dryer had just started to catch 109 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 1: on fire. Clothing in the dryer started to catch on fire, 110 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 1: and we put it out with the fire extinguisher, and 111 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 1: you know, everything was fine. But you know, a simple 112 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 1: little thing like that, and certainly it can cost you 113 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 1: an abundance of money. It can cost you a little money. 114 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 1: It can just keep your eyes open. So when you 115 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 1: have a vent and it goes outside, just you know, 116 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 1: just check to make sure something's not clogged. Make sure 117 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 1: there's not even lint where it keeps the damper open 118 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 1: that can have cold air rushing in if it's if 119 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 1: there's a screen there and there should be something there 120 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 1: to keep you know, mice from going up and getting 121 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 1: in that vent. Make sure that's cleaned out. There's also 122 00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 1: a vent on the inside usually the dryer. Make sure 123 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:02,679 Speaker 1: that's clean out. And that's just a really good tip. 124 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 1: And especially this time of year, maybe a lot of 125 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 1: guests doing a lot of sheets, doing a lot of 126 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 1: maybe blankets and things like that that have more than 127 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 1: your usual lint, and I think that's really what it was. 128 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 1: So keep your eye open for that. All right, let 129 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 1: me give you the phone number you can join us 130 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 1: happy to talk about maybe something you've discovered around your 131 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 1: home or something you're planning on working on, some maintenance 132 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 1: you're doing.

Just take your halvar, put some potato chips 198 00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:57,560 Speaker 5: in it, and he'll go in there like he was 199 00:12:57,640 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 5: going to the feast of the all Karaze. 200 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:03,320 Speaker 1: But is that right? Well, I'll tell you Tom another 201 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 1: thing you know that I'd like to impress on everybody, 202 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:10,559 Speaker 1: quite honestly. Animal removal is fine. Have heart traps are great, 203 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 1: They are wonderful. And of course you figured out the 204 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 1: bait that would be good. But a lot of different 205 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:20,840 Speaker 1: states and states we're talking to right now, they'll have 206 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:25,960 Speaker 1: different laws in different rules on what to do once 207 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 1: you trap an animal. So the one thing I would 208 00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:34,560 Speaker 1: recommend to people is if you suspect there is an 209 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:38,720 Speaker 1: animal in the attic, just to find out if you 210 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:44,080 Speaker 1: decide to do that yourself, which you know, if you're 211 00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:49,079 Speaker 1: confident in doing that, have edit, but know what you're 212 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 1: getting into. Know what you can do with that animal 213 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:56,800 Speaker 1: after it's been been trapped. I think that's real important. 214 00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 1: Be safe. You know, there's animals that could be have 215 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 1: rabies and things like that. But really the important thing here, 216 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 1: and this is one of the things we talk about 217 00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:14,439 Speaker 1: a lot, is the prevention, you know, the maintenance. I'm 218 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 1: not an insurance kick right now, and I'd even asked 219 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 1: several insurance brokers about you know, is that covered, because 220 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:25,680 Speaker 1: these animals, once they get in your attic, they can 221 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 1: do a lot of damage, especially start nesting up there. 222 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 1: And the insulation. I mean, it's nice and warm, but 223 00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 1: it's their birthing room, it's their bathroom, it's their bedroom, 224 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 1: and it's your insulation. And I've said many times, you know, 225 00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 1: there's people that have the expertise and the confidence to 226 00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 1: get up there and the mobility to get up there 227 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 1: and trap the animal and then you know, do what 228 00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:57,560 Speaker 1: you can do with that animal in your state, which 229 00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 1: is by law, and then you know that might be 230 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 1: the easy part, and the hard part might be the cleanup, 231 00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:09,920 Speaker 1: and maybe even a little bit of the dangerous part 232 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:14,960 Speaker 1: is the cleanup. So you know, the areas that are 233 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 1: subject to being the weak link where animals can get 234 00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:25,560 Speaker 1: in your home would certainly be the ridge vents. Just 235 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 1: kind of pay attention to activity on your roof. Also 236 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:37,280 Speaker 1: around the gutters, the soffet boards, if they're not tightly 237 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 1: calked and tightly nailed and you know, properly painted, and 238 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:46,840 Speaker 1: the wood isn't soft or dry rotted, those are areas 239 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 1: they love with their claws. They can just pull that 240 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 1: s facia board back a little bit and get right 241 00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:57,560 Speaker 1: into their attic. I've seen it in countless times. And 242 00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:03,720 Speaker 1: also gable vents. So you know, I was talking in 243 00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:05,560 Speaker 1: the next few days, we're going to have a couple 244 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 1: of nice days and walking around and inspecting that house. 245 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:17,520 Speaker 1: It would be well worth your time. And I encourage 246 00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 1: everybody kind of do that. Just see what's going on. 247 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 1: We just got to finished a season of all the 248 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 1: leaf drops, and did we get time to clean out 249 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 1: the gutters. Did we I hope so, because you know, 250 00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 1: it snows and nice and then we got ice dams. 251 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:36,920 Speaker 1: I think we were talking about ice dams last week. 252 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 1: And some of that is, you know, clogged gutters from 253 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 1: the leaves never got cleaned out, or we didn't have 254 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:48,560 Speaker 1: gutter guards to prevent that from happening. And also it's 255 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 1: caused by a lack of insulation. We had a long 256 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:55,840 Speaker 1: discussion about that. Not to just kind of pile on here, 257 00:16:55,920 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 1: but one of the things you certainly consider, with or 258 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:06,919 Speaker 1: without an animal suspect up in the up in the attic, 259 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:09,920 Speaker 1: but to get up in the attic and see what 260 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:14,639 Speaker 1: kind of insulation you have, and see how much insulation 261 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:20,879 Speaker 1: you have, because boy, you know, I keep hearing it, 262 00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:23,000 Speaker 1: You keep hearing it, you keep seeing it, and I 263 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 1: keep seeing it. The price of heating, the price of energy, 264 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:35,680 Speaker 1: it's it's not going down, it's going up. And you know, 265 00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 1: get up there with the yardstick and just see how 266 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 1: much insulation you have. Every inch of fiberglass inches is 267 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:49,359 Speaker 1: usually about the value of an art two point five 268 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 1: two and a half. You can find out what the 269 00:17:53,560 --> 00:18:00,199 Speaker 1: Department of Energy warrants in your area pretty easily. The 270 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:04,360 Speaker 1: bag of every insulation. They have zones and our areas 271 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 1: are thirty eight new construction R forty two for remodeling. 272 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 1: And then what's that sixteen inches seventeen inches or something 273 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 1: like that. You can do the math, and boy, if 274 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 1: you go up there and you measure and you got 275 00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:24,159 Speaker 1: ten inches of insulation, you're woefully under insulated. And you 276 00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 1: can mix different kinds of insulations on top, whether you 277 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 1: got batting or you got fiberglass, just get some insulation 278 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:32,879 Speaker 1: on top. Be careful that you don't cover up the 279 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:36,359 Speaker 1: soft events. You may have baffles up there now to 280 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:40,000 Speaker 1: protect the insulation from going over the soffits, because if 281 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:44,600 Speaker 1: you don't have good ventilation, that insulation is going to 282 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:47,800 Speaker 1: be helpful, but it's not going to perform it its 283 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 1: top peak if in the summertime you're holding all that 284 00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:56,040 Speaker 1: hot air in that attic. But yeah, we went from 285 00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 1: that to critters in the attic. But there's a lot 286 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:02,199 Speaker 1: that can be going on up there, and some of 287 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:04,959 Speaker 1: us don't pay attention to it. We dismiss it. Just 288 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:07,440 Speaker 1: like when I was talking about the dryer event. If 289 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:10,240 Speaker 1: you hear noises in the attic, you may not even 290 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:12,479 Speaker 1: know what kind of animal it is.

But I think most of us 346 00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:50,800 Speaker 1: always think about outdoor lighting as a summer thing. But 347 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:55,400 Speaker 1: I'm telling you it's important in the wintertime, even from 348 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 1: a safety standpoint. I'm sure you agree with that. 349 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:02,680 Speaker 6: I sure is. And uh, this time of year, it's 350 00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 6: always you see you see more than you see it 351 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:06,400 Speaker 6: during the summer. Actually it's it's a lot of fun 352 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:07,160 Speaker 6: driving around. 353 00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 1: The neighborhoods, right right. Well, I'll tell you one thing. 354 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 1: You know, I have the lighting on my home and 355 00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:18,600 Speaker 1: you've got it. You've got unique lighting at Haven Lighting. 356 00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:24,400 Speaker 1: And you've saved me so much time because I have 357 00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:28,439 Speaker 1: a program on your lighting that makes my house green 358 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:32,800 Speaker 1: and red. And I've incorporated some outdoor lighting on the 359 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:35,919 Speaker 1: bushes and it looks outstanding. I wanted to tell you, 360 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:38,880 Speaker 1: I've had more compliments on it than ever before whenever 361 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:42,120 Speaker 1: I've decorated. So tell me how old that work? 362 00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:46,920 Speaker 6: Oh, it's uh, it's it's great technology. And I think 363 00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 6: I think, as we you know, as we move forward, 364 00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 6: the we start to seeing more and more color and 365 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:57,199 Speaker 6: smart and smart lighting in all the neighborhoods. And and 366 00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:58,960 Speaker 6: hopefully you didn't have to even do anything. It just 367 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:03,960 Speaker 6: turned green red automatically that it was supposed to Thanksgiving, Yep, 368 00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:05,160 Speaker 6: it did. 369 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 1: And like I light up everything, I mean, the gutters, 370 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:13,720 Speaker 1: the roof, the peaks of the house. And then I 371 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:17,399 Speaker 1: did some regular Christmas lighting on a couple of bushes 372 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 1: with bulbs that kind of really even intensified it. The 373 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 1: first few years I didn't do that, and I've added 374 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 1: a couple just a couple things. It took it took 375 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 1: me every bit of fifteen minutes to put the additional 376 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 1: bulbs on, but it just made everything really pop. So 377 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:39,040 Speaker 1: I'll let you explain to people how all that works, 378 00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:42,879 Speaker 1: because I'm thinking I've seen people, you know, there's so 379 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:46,200 Speaker 1: many people now that are hanging Christmas lights. They're having 380 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 1: their homes professionally decked decorated, and I've talked to some 381 00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 1: of the owners. They're like, it's like three thousand dollars 382 00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:56,400 Speaker 1: every year, and it's like, what's going on. I can 383 00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:57,280 Speaker 1: do my whole house. 384 00:24:57,320 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, that's right. The technology is very, very easy 385 00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 6: to use, and that's one of the things that you 386 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:09,240 Speaker 6: get with Ayman is the app is is super simple. 387 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:11,880 Speaker 6: There's a picture of your house and and every light 388 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,160 Speaker 6: that you have is a is a is a little 389 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 6: dot on the picture and you can select one and 390 00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:18,760 Speaker 6: change it whatever color you want, and then and then 391 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,919 Speaker 6: save different scenes to schedule them all year around. And 392 00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 6: the idea like at my house and hopefully your house 393 00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 6: is you don't really you don't ever touch the app. 394 00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:30,720 Speaker 6: It just automatically happens for Memorial Day weekend it'll be red, 395 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,879 Speaker 6: white and blue, and and and for Christmas it'll be 396 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 6: red and green, and then and then the rest of 397 00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 6: the year, or however you want it can be. It 398 00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 6: can be white. And I know you like our color 399 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:42,600 Speaker 6: sunset more than more even than the white. 400 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:47,160 Speaker 1: So I do I doibility. In the summertime, I don't 401 00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:50,359 Speaker 1: use white. I use the sunset. And really, if you 402 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:53,960 Speaker 1: think of a summer sunset, you know, late in the 403 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:57,840 Speaker 1: day or in the evening, late in the evening, it 404 00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 1: is kind of an orange yellow. And I'll tell you what. 405 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:04,600 Speaker 1: In the summer, I don't think i'd use it in December, 406 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 1: but I think I usually have it from uh, you know, 407 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 1: June through August. And I just love that color. 408 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 6: Yeah, it looks, it looks great. You're right. I think 409 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:17,159 Speaker 6: in the winter you want a little more colder, colder 410 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:20,440 Speaker 6: white than than than that color. But the great thing 411 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 6: is the flexibility you have is you basically have any 412 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 6: color that you want any time of year, and and 413 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:29,600 Speaker 6: hopefully it's scheduled and you don't have to touch it, 414 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:33,399 Speaker 6: and remember to put out Christmas lights and and and 415 00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:36,480 Speaker 6: if you do accent a couple of bushes along during 416 00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:38,200 Speaker 6: Christmas time. I think I think you're right. I think 417 00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:41,640 Speaker 6: it does. It does add just just a ton of 418 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:43,120 Speaker 6: flair for the Christmas time. 419 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:46,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, and what's really neat is, you know, I certainly 420 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:53,360 Speaker 1: with your with your lighting. I've accented some trees normally 421 00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:58,639 Speaker 1: and bushes which go red and green, but just the 422 00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 1: forward bushes where they're you know, adding some smaller bulbs there. 423 00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 1: It did really really accent. But you know, a lot 424 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:13,760 Speaker 1: of people, I guess, how how much does this industry growing? 425 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:16,000 Speaker 1: When I was a kid, everybody had, you know, a 426 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:19,400 Speaker 1: light post in their front yard, except our house did 427 00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:22,200 Speaker 1: not have one, but a lot of people light posts 428 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 1: were big. And now we've just incorporated, and your business 429 00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:29,080 Speaker 1: has got to be grown because I even start thinking 430 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:30,119 Speaker 1: about the backyard. 431 00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's we're growing like crazy. This this last quarter 432 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:40,440 Speaker 6: was was insane. So we've I've been working, working a lot, 433 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 6: but it's been a lot of fun. And sure, you know, 434 00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:45,959 Speaker 6: the latest trend is really this roofline lighting, like you mentioned, 435 00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:50,320 Speaker 6: oh my gosh, for people paying for for putting it 436 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:53,879 Speaker 6: on Christmas lights. And we offer three different We manufactured 437 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,400 Speaker 6: three different styles of roofline lighting to kind of give 438 00:27:56,440 --> 00:28:01,680 Speaker 6: the people, there's there's differ there's different looks of it. 439 00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:03,639 Speaker 6: And one of the things one of the challenges that 440 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:07,160 Speaker 6: I think roofline lighting has uh and I think one 441 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:10,720 Speaker 6: that we have solved is when I see it. One 442 00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 6: of the one of the challenges that the that I 443 00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:15,680 Speaker 6: have with most of the roofline lighting out there is 444 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:19,719 Speaker 6: it just doesn't feel like Christmas. It just doesn't. The 445 00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:22,200 Speaker 6: balls are a little bit different, they're they're facing down, 446 00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:25,640 Speaker 6: the colors mix and it just doesn't give you that 447 00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:28,480 Speaker 6: Christmas kid feeling that you have when you were a kid. 448 00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:31,480 Speaker 6: And and uh and and when we developed ours, we 449 00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:34,320 Speaker 6: put some samples up in our showroom and and I 450 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:37,600 Speaker 6: walked in, I'm like, yeah, that's you get that feeling 451 00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:38,479 Speaker 6: and you just know it. 452 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:43,520 Speaker 1: So these so my outdoor lighting and what a lot 453 00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 1: of people's outdoor lighting is spotlights. When you're doing roof lighting, 454 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:51,120 Speaker 1: I see the homes and I can pick them out 455 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:57,840 Speaker 1: immediately because they're balls that go across and it's got 456 00:28:57,840 --> 00:28:59,640 Speaker 1: the chords on it. You got to take them all 457 00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:04,680 Speaker 1: down with yours. It's not spotlights, it's actually bulbs up there. 458 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:09,320 Speaker 6: Then right, Yes, it's a it's a track system that 459 00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:10,760 Speaker 6: you put up, and like I said, we have a 460 00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:13,280 Speaker 6: couple of different varieties depending on what you want. One 461 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 6: is completely linear, so if you want it to and 462 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:17,840 Speaker 6: then you can make that do whatever you want you to, 463 00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:19,600 Speaker 6: make it look like balls you can make you can 464 00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:22,680 Speaker 6: make it completely linear and do some really cool stuff. 465 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:25,400 Speaker 6: Whether there's some flag we have some flag effects that 466 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 6: on a moral day we can look ridiculously cool, but 467 00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:33,240 Speaker 6: but you can you can do whatever you want. And 468 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:35,240 Speaker 6: then all the way from linear and then we have 469 00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:39,440 Speaker 6: we have a Christmas style like look to one version, 470 00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 6: and then we have a more of a down like 471 00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:44,720 Speaker 6: version that are that are much more spread out, that 472 00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:47,160 Speaker 6: look like you know, some soffit down lights, but they're 473 00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:49,480 Speaker 6: programmable so you can make them do all kinds of 474 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 6: patterns and red and green for Christmas and things like that. 475 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:56,800 Speaker 6: So you know, we've kind of attacked all three varieties 476 00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:59,320 Speaker 6: because different people like different different styles. 477 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:02,400 Speaker 1: So I'm sure somebody same boy, if we're lighting up 478 00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 1: that much of the outside of the home, what's this costing? 479 00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:07,480 Speaker 1: But with LED, probably not that much. 480 00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:12,040 Speaker 6: Huh, it's not too bad. I mean, if you're definitely 481 00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:14,640 Speaker 6: if you're paying for somebody to put up Christmas lights, 482 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:19,720 Speaker 6: this will definitely be very, very attractive to you, you know. 483 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:23,280 Speaker 6: And I started the business just because I was out. 484 00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:25,520 Speaker 6: I literally was outside putting up Christmas lights, and I 485 00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:27,240 Speaker 6: was like, I don't want to do this anymore. 486 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 1: So is a lot of your business is it just 487 00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:36,840 Speaker 1: is it individual homes or is it commercial or I'm 488 00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:40,240 Speaker 1: sure it's both, but because I see a lot of commercial. 489 00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 6: Properties, it's definitely a mix of both. So we do. 490 00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:48,280 Speaker 6: We're about thirty percent commercial seventy percent residential, and we 491 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:51,800 Speaker 6: do some really cool commercial projects. You know, with our 492 00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:54,600 Speaker 6: with our technology, you can interface it with sports teams. 493 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 6: So the University of Kentucky has our lives all around 494 00:30:57,280 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 6: their football stadium so when they score, they can I 495 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:03,160 Speaker 6: make the light dance automatically and do all kinds of stuff. 496 00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:06,120 Speaker 6: It's it's it's super cool technology, the way the way 497 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:07,280 Speaker 6: that all that works. 498 00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:09,560 Speaker 1: Yeah. And when you talk about the cost, you're right. 499 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:12,280 Speaker 1: I mean that's what prompted my call is I look 500 00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:16,840 Speaker 1: at these beautiful homes that are lit up, and then 501 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:19,280 Speaker 1: I start talking about the costs and somebody coming up 502 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:22,280 Speaker 1: and putting all this stuff up every year taking it down. 503 00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 1: I'm thinking, like, I don't even I don't even flip 504 00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:30,160 Speaker 1: a switch. It just happens. Granted, I put a couple 505 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 1: of lights on some bushes just to accent and build 506 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,800 Speaker 1: on it. I was feeling guilty. It was so easy, 507 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:39,200 Speaker 1: and uh, I'm thinking, like I got to get Chris 508 00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:42,000 Speaker 1: on here, because I don't know how many people know 509 00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:50,520 Speaker 1: about the flexibility of of of color, you know, I mean, 510 00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:54,680 Speaker 1: it's more than just putting a light fixture in the ground. 511 00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:58,120 Speaker 6: So yeah, I think one of the I think one 512 00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:01,840 Speaker 6: of the misperceptions is that just because you have color 513 00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:05,600 Speaker 6: doesn't mean that you it doesn't mean that you can't 514 00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:07,880 Speaker 6: have white most of the year and make white look 515 00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 6: really really nice and people wouldn't you drive you by, 516 00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:12,920 Speaker 6: People wouldn't really know that they were color lights. So 517 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 6: I think one of the misperceptions is you either have 518 00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 6: one or the other. And with our with our technology, 519 00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:19,560 Speaker 6: that's that's not true. You can have it white most 520 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:22,680 Speaker 6: of the year and then and then celebrate and make 521 00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:25,600 Speaker 6: your house look super cool for the kids and grandkids.

What's 662 00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:14,480 Speaker 1: the issue? 663 00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:20,759 Speaker 9: No, Well, the issue is, well I had I had 664 00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:24,840 Speaker 9: somebody get up there and put tar down all around, 665 00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:27,000 Speaker 9: you know, And he had to do that about probably 666 00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:31,279 Speaker 9: about eight years ago too, or seven years ago, Yeah, 667 00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:33,919 Speaker 9: you know, because I was getting water, but I'm not now, 668 00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:38,280 Speaker 9: And that's probably the leaking out of there and getting 669 00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:41,160 Speaker 9: right on the root, right on the roof there, you know, 670 00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:44,520 Speaker 9: and he packed it all up and it's self felling 671 00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:45,480 Speaker 9: all with the water. 672 00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:50,160 Speaker 1: Though, Well is you know, is the pipe? I mean, 673 00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:52,319 Speaker 1: so let me just go through some of the things. 674 00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:55,160 Speaker 1: It can be. I can't tell you what it is. 675 00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:58,160 Speaker 1: I mean, you got water in the pipe? How's the 676 00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:01,120 Speaker 1: water getting there? I guess one of the things on 677 00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:06,200 Speaker 1: some vent stacks, A lot of them are just opened 678 00:41:06,239 --> 00:41:08,160 Speaker 1: by design. But if you live in an area where 679 00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:12,480 Speaker 1: you get a lot of wind or heavy rain, sometimes 680 00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:17,680 Speaker 1: that cap is installed. Sometimes there is no cap. Sometimes 681 00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:20,160 Speaker 1: that cap has been blown off. That could be one 682 00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:23,640 Speaker 1: reason why we get an excessive amount of water in there. 683 00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:28,799 Speaker 1: That the vent pipe itself, it could be made of 684 00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:31,960 Speaker 1: cast iron, it could be made of PVC. If it's 685 00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:35,160 Speaker 1: cast iron, the vent pipe itself could be cracked. 686 00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:42,640 Speaker 7: And then I have a lot of trees in the area. 687 00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:47,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, well there could be debris in there. Sure, yeah, 688 00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:50,000 Speaker 1: I know, so it could be. You know, you're talking 689 00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:56,799 Speaker 1: about adding the you know, flashing patch and stuff like that. 690 00:41:56,880 --> 00:42:00,640 Speaker 1: But around those vent pipes is also a rubber booted 691 00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:05,080 Speaker 1: as a lifespan of about ten years, and that boot 692 00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:10,239 Speaker 1: has to be replaced. Condensation a lot of times warm 693 00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:13,960 Speaker 1: air gets up there, hits that pipe in cold temperatures, 694 00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:17,200 Speaker 1: and you know, that's usually not a lot of you know, 695 00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:21,600 Speaker 1: steady water, but certainly some dripping just had some snow 696 00:42:21,719 --> 00:42:24,279 Speaker 1: and ice that could melt, that could get in there. 697 00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:28,760 Speaker 1: But if there's debris in there also along with that water, 698 00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:32,919 Speaker 1: and it's clogged and it's kind of plugged up, the 699 00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:36,279 Speaker 1: only way, Mike, you're going to really know that is 700 00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:39,520 Speaker 1: to get somebody in there, run a camera down through that. 701 00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:43,080 Speaker 1: It's kind of like a snake with a camera on it. 702 00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:47,480 Speaker 1: They'll see exactly what the issues are and then they 703 00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:50,320 Speaker 1: can alleviate the issues. And the main way they would 704 00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:53,960 Speaker 1: do that is pretty much with an augur just like 705 00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:57,160 Speaker 1: you would have a clogged drain and they would you know, 706 00:42:57,520 --> 00:43:03,319 Speaker 1: solve that issue for you. So that's so you're gonna 707 00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:08,680 Speaker 1: have to have it inspected thoroughly, and you can rent 708 00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:13,120 Speaker 1: those cameras at a tool rental. But we we just 709 00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:17,239 Speaker 1: we can't assume things, is what I'm saying. There's a 710 00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:20,839 Speaker 1: reason and a cause for everything. You know, for as 711 00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:23,600 Speaker 1: many pipes as you got going down, you have the 712 00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:26,560 Speaker 1: same amount of pipes going up to those vents so 713 00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:32,560 Speaker 1: that it flushes or the sinks flow better. So if 714 00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:35,719 Speaker 1: it's clogged, there's parley water in it. How it got there, 715 00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:38,239 Speaker 1: I don't know. I just gave you some places to check, 716 00:43:38,640 --> 00:43:40,920 Speaker 1: but I'm sure there's debris down there also. And you 717 00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:42,960 Speaker 1: get a camera down there, you find out where it's at, 718 00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:46,759 Speaker 1: what's causing it, and you alleviate the problem, all right. 719 00:43:46,840 --> 00:43:49,759 Speaker 1: Our phone number is eight hundred eight two three A 720 00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:52,160 Speaker 1: two five five.
