Re: Blower Door Testing Prior To Remodeling

@Mike Guertin: I totally agree. Get an energy audit through a BPI Certified professional. If you are interested in becoming BPI Certified, you can get the training and the testing through the company, CleanEdison. They have training programs all over the country, takes a couple days and a test and you are ready to perform energy audits safely and thoroughly. check them out!

Re: Is your vac compliant with EPA lead regs? (hint: who knows...)

Be careful with the EPA, they are enforcing the rule against contractors working without being certified to work with lead paint. It can be a huuuge fine. tens of thousands of dollars. But you can get certified through CleanEdison's training program. go to http://www.cleanedison.com/certified-lead-renovator-training.html It is a great way to make sure you avoid getting hit with fines upwards of $35k! It is definitely not worth the risk of getting fined, get certified today!
