About this episode
Dean discusses the future of air conditioning and HVAC technology, addressing new standards and answering listener questions.
Dean talks about air conditioning and how HVAC may be changing faster than any other residential technology. New energy standards, new air quality standards, and even fundamental shifts in the theory of how to heat and cool a home. There’s a lot to unpack if a new system is in your future. Dean talks about it all and answers questions about; replacing old color tile in bathrooms and expanding a shower, whether orange oil or heat is the best way to get rid of termites, why hot water pressure in a kitchen is a lot lower than cold water pressure, and whether or not to put a damper on an air conditioning vent to lessen the pressure of the air coming through and to lower the sound.
