Money doesn't buy happiness, and apparently it doesn't buy a good HVAC system either. I know this was a cost-no-object project where they wanted the best of the best, no questions asked, and instead they got one of the worst-designed and installed systems I've ever seen. Three huge variable-speed units, two whole-home dehumidifiers, a partridge and a pear tree, and they still got moisture issues. You got to get your HVAC system properly designed, and then tell the contractor to just install that system. This is nuts. Give yourself a gift or comfort and contact me before you do something stupid. I'll take the money.

Have you ever met a real estate agent who looked like the head shot on their yard signs?

Mold gets all this attention like it's this big bad boogie man, but mold is everywhere. There's no such thing as a mold-free house. We live around mold every single day. Yes, there are some people that have a sensitivity or intolerance to mold or to other microbial growth that might show up in your house, but mold isn't the real issue.

Mold is a communicator. Mold is trying to tell you something, just like the raccoons getting into your trash can are telling you you need to put a lock on your trash can and stop putting sweet, tasty raccoon treats in there. Mold is sending you a message, and that message is wet and moist. Water, moisture, and humidity management is by far the most important part of maintaining a home or any building, for that matter.

If you have elevated moisture or humidity, you're going to get growth or other unwanted microorganisms hanging out in your house, watching Netflix and leaving their towel on your bed. Every healthy home has to maintain a moisture level of less than 60% relative humidity, or all kinds of growth is coming to hang out. If you see growth, or if somebody in the house is consistently sick, check the moisture levels. If you can't figure out where it's coming from, that's where I come in. I can tell you where it's coming from. I want to help make your home healthy.

All praise be to at Landshark Promotions in downtown Mobile and my sweet and wonderful Julie, who works the phones and keeps me from giving away everything for free.

We're thinking about selling these things. Would you buy one? Maybe I'll bring him to the BS and B**r networking meeting at Fairhope Brewing in Downtown Mobile, AL on Wednesday, November 11. You're going to be there, right? Good, can't wait to see you.

Maybe, or can you come up with some cool custom apparel ideas? Definitely never seen anything like this. I don't like to do anything run-of-the-mill.

You're in mobile, Al and have an interest in building science, construction, home repair, or home maintenance, or else you wouldn't be seeing this.

We finally get a chance to meet, hang out, and discuss houses and how we can make them safer and healthier for our families. My house just has to keep two dogs healthy, so I don't really get to work on my house much. I'd love to talk to you about yours, about the projects you've been working on, and what we can do to strengthen the network of home service providers that just want to do better.

There's a huge problem where you just flat out can't trust anybody coming to work on your house anymore. I'm excited to build a network of people that want to do better or need to do better. If you're a homeowner that's taken an interest in how to better maintain your home, come on. If I can't answer your question, somebody there will.

Can't wait to see you there Wednesday, November 11, at Fairhope Brewing in downtown Mobile. It's going to be a good time, even if you don't drink. I don't drink either, so we can hang out in the corner and laugh at all the drunk people.

Vented crawl spaces are doing damage to houses, and there's no way to sugarcoat it. The science is in, and the facts are confirmed: vented crawl spaces were never a good idea.
*There is data to support vented crawl spaces in the Pacific Northwest

If you've ever had to have foundation work done under your crawl space, more than likely it could have been prevented if the crawl space was encapsulated. If you've ever had mold or subfloor rot under your house, it would have been prevented if it had been encapsulated.

Encapsulation basically means bringing that space inside of the conditioned envelope, which means:
- Sealing it up tight
- Putting a v***r barrier down to stop moisture from coming up from the ground
- Putting in a dehumidifier to keep any moisture coming in through air leaks down
- In most cases, you'll need a perimeter French drain and a sump pump to capture groundwater and get it away from the house

If anyone tries to tell you otherwise, they are wrong. There is no data, science, or testing that shows that there's a good way to vent a crawl space, especially in a hot and humid climate in the summer here in Mobile and all along the Gulf Coast. You're attempting to dry a wet space with extremely wet air, and the only thing moving more air down there will do is possibly slow down condensation. Ultimately, it isn't going to work.

If you can't afford to encapsulate, you got to start saving now. Encapsulation takes some maintenance:
- You got to get down there and check the dehumidifier.
- You got to make sure the sump pump is working.
- You got to make sure anybody that works down there doesn't puncture the v***r barrier.

Even with that added maintenance, you're still better off than having gross, nasty, humid air from the crawl space getting into the house. If your house is old and you want it to last for another 50 years, this is going to have to happen. It doesn't matter if your house has good bones or not. If the foundation is bad, the whole house is bad.

ADHD does give you some superpowers:
1. We can read minds.
2. Hyperfocus.

Boy, the hyperfocus has got a hold of me the last couple of months. I've really zoned in on so much about home performance and building science and air conditioners and ductwork and filtering and blower doors and just all of this super cool stuff that I'm so incredibly excited to bring to my business to help as many people as possible.

I definitely feel like this focus on home performance is going to help a lot more people than changing ceiling fans and patching sheetrock. This has been one hell of a journey these last few months, and I can't wait to screw it all up and get to learn a valuable lesson from it.

Don't let fear of failure stop you. Welcome failure, look forward to it, and encourage it. You'll never learn anything if you don't screw something up every now and then.

I have been searching for the perfect air filter, or ionizer, or air scrubber, or whatever. I could make an attempt to not have to dust, and it turns out there is no way around it. You're just going to have to dust.

One of the only luxuries I ever want to be able to afford in life is to just not have to clean my own house. I hate cleaning. I get it: it sucks.

I've been in several homes where they had concerns about indoor air quality, and I had to tell him, "Well, step one is you got to get all this dust out of here. You got to get all this dog hair out of here. You got to get this cat litter box at least into a different room."

People get all concerned about mold and bacteria and viruses floating around in the air, but every surface around him is covered in a potential food source. Don't start looking for any air purifiers or any other way to clean the air around you until you've cleaned all the surfaces. Dust, clean, change the air filter in your air conditioner regularly, then we could talk about other stuff later.

Building Science and B**r (BS & B**r) is. Networking group Working its way across the nation. I’ve been to two meetings, one in Dallas and one in New Orleans. They were both absolutely phenomenal opportunities to get to meet like-minded people that care about quality work and have an interest in building or fixing homes and buildings that have failed. They were about what we can do together to make life a little better for those around us and those that we care about.

Come hang out with me Wednesday, November 11, at Fairhope Brewing in Mobile, Alabama, downtown. The official start is 5:30, but I’ll probably get there early. We can chit-chat as long as you want.

If you’re interested, take this video and send it back to me so I can just kind of gauge how many people might show up. I don’t want to deal with signups or anything like that. Just try to make it easy on everybody.

Hope to see you there. It’ll be fun.
