SHOW NOTES:

  • Home Improvement Advice: Are social media hacks for home improvement really helping? Find out what one survey says.
  • New Caulk Products: Learn about a new line of caulk that’s easy to use and as good as silicone.
  • Summer Insulation: Effective insulation can seal summertime drafts that increase air conditioning costs.

     Plus, answers to your home improvement questions.

    • Circuit Breakers: Why does the air conditioner keep tripping the circuit breaker? Marcie may need a dedicated circuit if the appliance is pulling too much power.
    • HVAC: Michael’s roof-mounted HVAC system wasn’t properly insulated. We’ve got tips on insulating the ducts to reflect UV radiation and lower energy costs.
    • Kitchen Cabinet Odors: Carolyn cleaned mold from inside her cabinet but it still smells. She should look for hidden mold she may have missed and apply a clear finish or primer to seal the surface.
    • Laminate Countertops: Are laminate kitchen cabinets a good choice? We agree that Terry can find a laminate surface that looks great at a fraction of the cost.
    • Trees and Foundations: Lynn is worried about nearby trees damaging her home foundation. She can watch for cracks, but it shouldn’t be a problem.
    • Mold In Windows: Lots of condensation is causing mold in the channels of the windows. It will take regular maintenance to keep them clean and dry, and Don may need to replace the windows eventually.
