    Curtis, on the 1st house, you were thinking of putting an Air handler in the corner of the utility room next to the water softener. That wall on the right had an electrical panel on it. In my area, you can't block access to an electrical panel. The area directly in front of the panel must have 36" clearance in front and 30" wide, that's NEC code. Whoever hooked up the DHW was no plumber, flex hoses and no shut offs, that's an insurance claim waiting to happen. I suspect the realtor is going to lose his shirt on this project. This is one of those jobs you should have brought Riley. Riley would have taken one sniff and dragged you back to the Van and safety.

    You really see some stuff Curtis, God bless. The first house needs a bulldozer. It costs more to completely gut and redo all they need than to rebuild. To each his own I guess. You can bet those windows will be changed or should I say should be. The second call, I had to blink twice, I thought you were in the same place. The last call, most definitely needs a changeout. Good video, stay safe out there.

    @Garth2011 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I would hope the owners of the first house replace all windows and exterior doors, insulate the walls and attic before they consider central air and heat. With the condition of the property as it is, it seems they will be fixing it up quite a bit. Also, if the air handler will fit in the attic, I would put it up there to keep the existing space they have now for other needs. Now would be the time to do the upgrades or tear it down and start over. While they are in limbo, they might want to get all of the overgrowth in the yard removed.

    • @Vfh........y
      @Vfh........y 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Would be very difficult to insulate the walls and you just don't see many people doing that but as far as the attic goes yes you can pile it in deep and put some exterior doors and some decent windows in would help a ton

    • @Garth2011
      @Garth2011 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@Vfh........y Yes, but in this home, its very likely they might be tearing into some walls for windows etc. If they do, the place is empty, its a mess and one more step to help the HVAC work as well as sound deadening etc. it could be worth their time if they get into the exterior walls. Obviously, if no...wall insulation would be a large job on its own.
