Alright, some of you guys in the South, show me some defects up there in those hot attics. I want to know if you went up in the oven to find those defects. :mrgreen:
(They installed a Horizontal unit and return inside an attic full of vermiculite and a dead Bat.
Vermiculite and blowers do not play well together Marcel.)
Came across this one today. Seller wondered why the one room was so hot in the summer and cold in the winter. At Least with 103 temp today the attic was fairly cool. And yes, ALL the duct needed replaced. The attic was cooler than the house.
Cut wires to the humidifier just hanging out there in the breeze in one pic and the other of the furnace dere hey up in the attic, well it speaks for itself meeee thinks.
You should have got a load of the stench when we fired that puppy up…too bad we don’t have scratch 'n sniff…
Not much wrong in this picture except that the whole ridge looked like that from inside the attic but on the outside the ridge was equipped with full length ridge venting.
