New Stuff | Hour 2

Dean takes listener calls this hour! Leigh from Lompoc calls in to talk about her large 3,000 sq ft home—should she downsize or invest in some help to maintain it? Dean offers advice on using her equity to reduce her workload and suggests hiring a landscaping service and housekeeper before considering moving. Plus, elevator retrofits are more affordable than you might think! Then, caller Gabe wants to know how to optimize ventilation in his 90s two-story home with no eave vents. Dean explains how to vent the attic or consider turning it into a conditioned space using spray foam insulation for maximum thermal efficiency.
