By Home with Dean Sharp

August 2, 2025

Dean takes you from the attic to the electrical panel with practical advice for homeowners looking to make smarter decisions about comfort, efficiency, and safety. First, Dean breaks down the differences between fiberglass insulation and spray foam in attic spaces — especially when you're converting to a conditioned attic. He also explains how baffles work and why proper attic ventilation is critical, even with modern insulation materials. Then, a caller asks about tinted windows. Dean shares the pros and cons of window films, how they compare to low-E glass, and what to consider when upgrading for heat control and privacy. Later, Dean dives into pest control, focusing on termite prevention and elimination. Learn the warning signs of an infestation and which treatments are most effective without overpaying for unnecessary services. To close out the show, another caller wants to do some electrical upgrades without damaging their walls. Dean walks through clever ways to run wiring with minimal disruption, and when it’s best to call in a professional.
