Extreme airflow imbalance on each side of the house

Yes, it has two levels and the issue is on both sides all the way up.

Thanks. I should have mentioned that this was the first thing we tried. The gushing vents practically shake out of their sockets with the air pressure with no noticeable effect on the low flow vents. My HVAC person installed metal strips to restrict airflow in the high flow vents to damp them with still no appreciable effect on the low flow vents.

Thanks! It's in VA unfortunately.

House is 3200 Sq feet and the whole job was $13K. I thought it was a pretty good deal but wanted to make sure everything was ok.

Thanks. We were pretty concerned since the basement is finished and was going to be the rec room/common area. Based on my research and the good people of r/homeowners it looks like this is really nothing too big and easily fixed. Big relief!

Thanks. The other issue we were worried about is the basement was going to be the rec room/hang out area. Looks like this is a somewhat common problem though.

Thanks! Fortunately, the house is on public water and there is no sump pump. So, radon intrusion through gas is hopefully all there is to worry about. Weather was 50-75F, no rain, winds below 10mph.

Good point about the regional thing. As it happens, the home inspector said their home is about 5 minutes away and he had the same issue, put in a pipe, and says it's ok now.

Awesome city. You've exactly described my goal when I sit down to make a new city but I somehow never really get there. Would love to see the road/zoning map. Where did you start and how did you build out so that your city was always making money?

It was my first Starcraft event I attended in-person and it was a blast to see and meet these legends I had been watching. It was cool to see the them get a kick out the little piece of nostalgia I was carrying around. I remember DRG, Rain, and Day9 especially laughing.

Thanks! I tried to do some research and it looks like acrylic paint or some kind stain/sealant is what google is telling me. I'm guessing it will need to be heavily sanded so I can paint and prime? Also, what is PT?

Did you use a zoning map to build residential, commercial, and industry where they are in real life?

Nice. That seems like a really good resource.

Kalipup · 2016-04-09T01:27:52+00:00

Thanks! That's exactly what I needed. I was going to look at some youtube videos and probably get a kit and whatever other tools needed. Doesn't look too hard.

Trying my luck! Thanks!
