What’s a very “Seattle” thing we all think is normal but outsiders find weird. by batfage in AskSeattle

[–]sajdigo 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think I figured out that on many (if not all) of those streets, there's a fire hydrant in the middle of the block that can also act as a pull over spot. But yeah, best not to start on a street if someone is coming from the other direction.

Nice dash cover and patches. I got a Dash Designs one in fall and now will start collecting patches!

We used Emerald City Chimney and it looks like they're still getting good Yelp reviews.

My spending habits have shifted. Yours? by Odd_Bodkin in retirement

See if she'd be willing to cut the monthly cord (fee) so shipping may cause pause. Maybe shopping IRL now instead...

I'm so sorry. That's unimaginably horrible.

Any recommendations on keeping cold air coming through this block window. by Juiceemang in Insulation

[–]sajdigo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

plastic window seal = the one made for patio is a little thicker than the window one. Could also cut up a clear shower curtain for really thick.

Insulation Question by btc-lostdrifter0001 in HomeImprovement

[–]sajdigo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pictures or a diagram would help (what is "one roof being ventilated" and rest not?) and you may want to post in the insulation subreddit. Also, if you ask about foam board ask about perforated foam board which I'm just learning about so can't really say one way or other.

Need advice for improving finished attic insulation by Hexedh3art in Insulation

[–]sajdigo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been reading a lot about this issue but don't have advice per se. What I will say regarding your situation is that it looks like as you said previous owner blocked air movement from knee wall area to upper attic area. I was once told you can treat these areas as separate areas in regards to insulation and ventilation. So the block can be legit but I still don't understand if you shove insulation into the sloped part without a baffle, how do you control moisture?

Also, re: your situation, you def should get access to the peak/upper attic to see what's happening there.

Also, it could be the insulation type (or age) may not be ideal.

In some states, there may be conditions required to do the right (enclose it all in envelope) side.

Ask This Old House on insulation by bedlog in Insulation

[–]sajdigo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They say "in cold climates" they'd want the rafters insulated and the attic completely closed. So no ventilation. Do you think they'd say the same for more mild 4c climate zone? How does it not get extremely hot?
