In this episode of "A Very Fine House," Pete and Marty, The Home Energy Pros, dive deep into the topic of insulation. They discuss the challenges of dealing with a cold and drafty home, especially in Northeast Ohio where spring can bring unexpected snowstorms. They emphasize that insulation is a year-round concern and not just for the winter months. Marty shares his experience of working with thousands of customers and how he prioritizes individual situations before making an assessment of a home heating concern. They also highlight the importance of conducting other diagnostics and assessments before implementing insulation solutions.
