Good afternoon everybody the AC is humming it is 81° outside sure glad I did my wire run this morning the sun is out and it would be HOT in the attic.
Afternoon all.
Yes working in an attic can be miserable.... and if it is loaded with insulation very itchy.
Yep it can be very itchy if you are sweating, after getting up in the attic I need to add some more my 4" has shrunk to 1.5" high AC bills and AC not able to keep up no heat in the building as it is not used much in the winter time. Looking at the choices there is one that is made from old blue jeans not itchy. Working in a hot attic can also be deadly.
A couple of years ago I had the entire attic vacuumed, then had all the exterior soffits opened, sprayed 3" inches of high density foam over entire ceiling and filled to an R60.
You noticed the change immediately, particularly in the hot weather. The airflow in the attic was up so the hot air exhausted through the roof vents and the insulation prevented the heat from radiating downward.
Another nut shooting and killing kids at a Fla High School!!!!!!! You can't send your children to school these days without worrying if they will come home. Think we need armed guards at all our school now. This really upsets me.
Multiple people died, U.S. Senator Bill Nelson of Florida told MSNBC.
"There are a number of fatalities," Nelson said, citing a conversation with the superintendent of schools.
