To watch a video version of this podcast, click here: https://youtu.be/eK-WIS7inMUIn this episode, Reuben Saltzman and Tessa Murry talk with Steve Rogers, President of The Energy Conservatory (TEC), about the science behind home performance and why so many HVAC systems fall short of expectations. Steve shares TEC's journey from early prototypes to industry‑standard testing tools and explains how comfort, moisture, and efficiency issues often stem from the building envelope. The conversation dives into blower doors, airflow testing, duct leakage, furnace short‑cycling, restrictive filters, oversized systems, and the key measurements inspectors and homeowners commonly miss, offering practical insights for homeowners, inspectors, HVAC technicians, and building‑science enthusiasts alike.You can check out The Energy Conservatory website here: www.energyconservatory.comTakeawaysTEC manufactures tools that measure building airtightness, duct leakage, and airflow—core metrics for diagnosing home performance issues.Blower door testing became essential because leaky houses waste energy, cause comfort issues, and contribute to attic moisture problems.Early blower door prototypes were expensive and slow; TEC revolutionized the field with affordable, efficient models.Airflow is one of the hardest HVAC metrics to measure accurately; TEC's TruFlow Grid helps techs commission systems properly.Most furnaces and ACs are never tested for correct airflow after installation, which leads to early equipment failure and poor efficiency.High temperature rise = low airflow. This often causes the furnace to hit its high‑limit switch and shut off prematurely.Oversizing is rampant—many homes have furnaces 1.5–2× larger than needed, increasing noise, inefficiency, and comfort issues.Filter restrictions depend on pressure drop, not just MERV rating. Pleat depth and surface area matter more than the number printed on the label.3M Filtrete filters maintain reasonable pressure drops because they add pleats as MERV levels increase.The most important starting point in energy upgrades is a blower door test, not HVAC replacement.Older homes—especially balloon‑framed houses—are extremely leaky and need targeted air‑sealing.Complicated house shapes (L‑shaped, multi‑level splits, many dormers) are typically leakier than simple rectangular designs.Many contractors still do not measure airflow or static pressure, causing repeat callbacks and inefficiency.TEC's tools and apps help HVAC techs commission systems properly—reducing callbacks and improving system performance.Homeowners can access subsidized energy audits through utilities, often including blower door and infrared inspections.Chapters00:00 — Introduction and Guest Welcome02:00 — Steve's Background & The Origin of The Energy Conservatory05:00 — How Blower Doors Were Invented & Early Challenges08:00 — Engineers, Inventors & TEC's Company Culture11:00 — Advances in Airflow Testing: TruFlow Grid Explained15:00 — Why Airflow Is Critical for Furnace & AC Efficiency17:00 — Temperature Rise, High‑Limit Switches & Furnace Cycling20:00 — Common Installation Issues & What Inspectors Should Look For22:00 — The Truth About Furnace Filters & Pressure Drop26:00 — Oversizing Problems & Proper Equipment Matching31:00 — Why Most Homes Have Comfort Problems (and How to Fix Them)35:00 — Blower Door Testing as the First Step in Home Performance38:00 — Moisture, Attic Frost & Air Leakage Pathways41:00 — Styles of Homes That Tend to Be Leakier44:00 — Balloon Framing vs. Platform Framing47:00 — Why the Industry Changes Slowly & The Role of Training52:00 — How Homeowners Can Learn More & Access Energy Audits53:00 — Closing Tho

This podcast is the audio version of the Gear Garage Live Show, where Zach answers submitted questions and talks all things whitewater. In this episode, Zach discusses new one-day safety clinics, dives into the "horrible" customer service at River Hardware, and analyzes whether a 13'9" raft is suitable for multi-day trips. Episode Summary Zach starts the show by introducing a new concept: "a la carte" rescue instruction through Northwest Rafting Company. These one-day clinics allow boaters to focus on specific skills, like throw bags and mechanical advantage, without the time commitment of a full three-day course. He explains that building skills incrementally every year is often more effective than trying to cram everything into one long session. A significant portion of the show is dedicated to a very honest look at his side project, River Hardware. Zach explains that because he is so busy running his main outfitting business, River Hardware offers no customer service. He addresses a viewer's frustration regarding blower adapters for Craftsman tools, explaining the challenges of designing custom parts for every brand and suggesting that those who want traditional support should shop at larger retailers like NRS. The technical discussion shifts to raft design when a viewer asks about using a 13'9" Wing Raft for overnight trips. Zach, who has designed many boats for Wing, explains that while he loves rowing the boat for light trips, its high rocker and smaller tube size make it a poor choice for heavy multi-day loads. He offers advice on better alternatives for those looking to carry a kitchen, groover, and multiple passengers. Topics and links that Zach talked about in this episode Training: One-day Safety Clinics at Northwest Rafting Company. Gear: Blower adapters for DeWalt, Milwaukee, and Makita tools. Raft Design: Wing rafts. Some of the Questions that Zach covered in the Q&A section of this episode Topic: Blower Adapters. "Does the DeWalt adapter work on a Craftsman blower?" Topic: Boat Selection. "Is a thirteen foot nine raft big enough for a multi-day trip with passengers and gear?" Topic: Customer Service. "Why is there no contact link for River Hardware?"

In this engaging episode of the HVAC School podcast, host Bryan Orr sits down with Leo and Paul Sharkey, a father-son duo of mechanical engineers who made the leap into the HVAC business. Leo and Paul share their remarkable journey of purchasing an HVAC company in September 2020 and quadrupling its revenue within five years. Their engineering backgrounds bring a refreshing, data-driven perspective to an industry that often relies on rules of thumb and outdated practices. The Sharkeys operate in the challenging Northeast market, where homes can date back to the 1600s and 1700s. They discuss the eye-opening discovery that traditional HVAC sizing methods—like the simplistic "one ton per 400 square feet" rule—fail dramatically in older housing stock. Their commitment to running thousands of Manual J calculations has transformed their approach, often resulting in smaller, more efficient systems than competitors propose. The conversation dives deep into the unique challenges of working with centuries-old New England homes, including extreme infiltration rates, non-linear heat loss curves during harsh winters, and the complications of mixing modern additions with ancient construction. Beyond sizing, Leo and Paul tackle the practical realities of heat pump installations in cold climates. They explain why turndown ratio is critical, how they handle homes with heat loads that triple their cooling loads, and when backup heating systems are truly necessary. Their consultative approach rejects the "one-size-fits-all" mentality that has flooded the market with incentive-chasing installations. They candidly discuss the problems created by Massachusetts' generous rebate programs, which have attracted fly-by-night operators who prioritize rebate qualifications over proper design and long-term performance. The episode also explores the balance between ductless and ducted systems, revealing when each approach makes economic and technical sense. The Sharkeys share fascinating case studies, from a 1748 house with the equivalent of a full-size door's worth of air leakage to underground concrete dome homes requiring specialized dehumidification. Their willingness to take on complex projects that other contractors avoid demonstrates how engineering thinking, combined with trade expertise, can solve challenging HVAC problems. This conversation is essential listening for anyone serious about understanding cold climate HVAC design, building science principles, and what it takes to deliver quality comfort solutions in real-world conditions. Topics Covered Engineering background transition to HVAC - How mechanical engineering experience in semiconductors and manufacturing informed their HVAC business approach Manual J calculations and proper sizing - Running 7,000-9,000 Manual J calculations over five years and why they typically specify smaller systems than competitors Old New England housing challenges - Working with homes from the 1600s-1700s, extreme infiltration rates, and heat loss characteristics of ancient construction Heat load vs. cooling load imbalances - Managing homes where heat loads can be triple the cooling loads and how this affects system design Heat pump turndown ratios - Why equipment turndown capability is critical for shoulder seasons and preventing short cycling in cold climates Cold weather performance and derating - Equipment capacity loss at low ambient temperatures and the importance of proper backup heat sizing Ductless vs. ducted system economics - When to choose multi-zone ductless over ducted systems based on home layout, infrastructure, and cost Retrofit complications in mixed construction - Dealing with homes that combine 200-year-old sections with modern additions on the same heating system Massachusetts incentive programs - How Mass Save rebates (up to $25,000 financing + $10,000 rebates) have impacted market quality and contractor behavior Installation challenges at low temperatures - Field issues including undersized ductwork, poor equipment placement, defrost cycle complications, and electric backup heat requirements Building science fundamentals - Blower door testing, weatherization impacts, infiltration effects on heat load, and wind loading considerations Consultative sales approach - Rejecting one-size-fits-all solutions and customizing system recommendations based on home characteristics and homeowner needs Backup heating strategies - When and why fuel-based backup systems are necessary, including power outage considerations and client comfort levels Complex project examples - Case studies including underground concrete dome homes, storage closet air handler installations, and severely under-designed retrofit corrections   Learn more about Leo and Paul's business, Jay Moody HVAC, at https://jaymoodyhvac.com/.  Have a question that you want us to answer on the podcast?

In this episode of The Manufacturing Culture Podcast, Jim sits down with Chris Humphrey, Business Development Manager at AirPro Fan & Blower Company, to explore how purpose, people, and love of neighbor shape lasting manufacturing cultures. From growing up in a motorcycle dealership to hiking the Appalachian Trail during a “quarter-life crisis,” Chris shares how his journey through machining, engineering, and leadership led him to rediscover the true purpose behind manufacturing — building communities, providing meaningful work, and caring for people along the way.Together, they unpack what culture means beyond the walls of a company, how leadership grounded in empathy can transform performance, and why AirPro's employee-owned model has created one of the most authentic examples of modern manufacturing culture today.What You'll Hear:Chris's early years in machining and how vocational education shaped his careerThe “quarter-life crisis” that changed his perspective on work and purposeWhy every manufacturing job supports six others and how that drives community impactLessons from the rifle industry on culture, stress, and leadershipHow AirPro Fan & Blower built a thriving employee-owned culture around love of neighborThe difference between condemning managers and leaders who come alongsideWhy culture, not compensation, is the real key to long-term retentionHow manufacturing can reclaim its image and attract the next generationThe future of manufacturing through technology, AI, and purpose-driven leadershipKey Quotes:“Manufacturing supports my community. That realization changed everything for me.”“Love of neighbor is a culture driver. It changes how you lead, how you sell, and how you care for people.”“People remember who you are, not just what you did.”“When a company puts care at the center, success takes care of itself.”Topics Covered:Manufacturing culture, leadership, purpose, employee ownership, community, vocational education, business development, supply chain, culture change, mentorship, AI in manufacturing, future of work.Jim's Take:Chris's story is a reminder that culture isn't a policy — it's people caring for each other. His journey from shop floor to business development shows how purpose evolves but never disappears when it's built on the right foundationMed Device Boston — The go-to med tech sourcing and education expo, September 30th–October 1st at Boston's BCEC.

Bryan Orr and Steve Rogers dive deep into measuring power consumption in HVAC blower motors, particularly focusing on the differences between PSC (Permanent Split Capacitor) and ECM (Electronically Commutated Motor) technologies. The discussion stems from a question raised at an educators' conference about the accuracy of clamp-on meters in measuring blower motor watt draw, as specified in the ACCA Standard 310. Steve shares insights from extensive testing conducted with different types of motors and power meters. The tests compared PSC motors with constant torque and constant airflow ECM motors across various static pressure conditions. One key finding was that two out of three field-available clamp-on meters tested were capable of accurately measuring true power at levels expected in residential blower motors. However, one meter showed significant inaccuracy at low power levels, highlighting the importance of carefully reviewing meter specifications before use. The conversation delves into the concept of power factor and its crucial role in understanding the true power consumption of ECM motors. Steve explains that ECM motors often have a low power factor (around 0.6), which can lead to misconceptions about their efficiency if only the current draw is measured. The discussion emphasizes the need for proper measurement techniques, including simultaneous voltage and current readings with the blower door on, to accurately assess motor efficiency. Key topics covered in the podcast: Differences between PSC and ECM motor technologies Importance of power factor in measuring true power consumption Accuracy of field-available clamp-on meters for power measurement Impact of static pressure on motor performance and efficiency Misconceptions about ECM motor efficiency and longevity Proper measurement techniques for assessing blower motor watt draw Relationship between duct system design and motor efficiency Implications of ACCA Standard 310 for HVAC installations Challenges in comparing constant torque and constant airflow ECM motors The role of control algorithms in ECM motor performance Importance of understanding meter specifications for accurate measurements   Have a question that you want us to answer on the podcast?

Standard 310 is a technical workflow created by ACCA, ResNet, and ANSI for grading the installation of HVAC systems, typically in new home construction. It plays a crucial role in obtaining Energy Star certification, which can qualify homeowners for tax credits under the Inflation Reduction Act. The five steps of Standard 310 are design review, duct leakage test, total system airflow, blower fan watt draw, and refrigerant charge verification. In this podcast episode, host Bryan Orr is joined by guests Chris Hughes and Eric Kaiser to discuss Standard 310 and its implications for HVAC contractors. The standard aims to ensure that HVAC systems are installed correctly and operate as designed. The process involves a third-party HERS rater conducting various tests and measurements, which contractors need to be prepared for. Proper duct sealing, airflow settings, and refrigerant charging are critical for passing the assessments. One of the challenging aspects highlighted is the refrigerant charge verification step. The standard requires either non-invasive testing (which has temperature limitations) or weigh-in verification with geotagged photos. Chris Hughes suggests manufacturers could develop more consistent commissioning protocols to streamline this process. Topics covered in the podcast: Overview of Standard 310 and its five steps Importance for Energy Star certification and tax credits Role of HERS raters and HVAC contractors Duct leakage testing and proper sealing Airflow measurement methods Blower fan watt draw challenges Refrigerant charge verification options Need for consistent commissioning protocols Coordination and documentation required Future improvements to the standard   Have a question that you want us to answer on the podcast?

You can read the case study in the “Literature” section at https://www.santa-fe-products.com/about-us/media-resources/ or https://hvacrschool.com/case-study.  Blower door tests and ZPD revealed that the home was leaky, and the crawlspace was also not properly encapsulated. The options were to tighten the building and/or mitigate the problem by improving the HVAC system. The homeowners chose to improve the HVAC, which Genry did by installing a ventilating dehumidifier (Santa Fe Ultra98H), reducing system tonnage (3.5 to 2 tons), and putting in new ductwork. One of Genry's key tips to address intermittent moisture issues is to pay attention to fluctuating pressures, not just under the blower door test conditions. Ongoing monitoring is crucial in these studies to measure the home under several different typical conditions. He also relies on blower door tests to determine if encapsulation is necessary or needs improvement, as insulation and encapsulation can bring new issues in their wake.  Extensive testing and working with other contractors (such as home insulators) are the best ways to get a solution that makes the homeowner happy. We need a holistic approach to design to achieve a homeowner's IAQ and comfort goals, not necessarily following strict design guidelines to a T. Nikki, Genry, and Bryan also discuss: Zonal pressure diagnostics (ZPD) Dehumidifier ductwork Dehumidifier selection Attic encapsulation, condensation, and duct leakage MAD AIR The importance of IAQ case studies and the insights we can get from them Effects of insulation Dehumidifier performance in part-load conditions Mechanical equipment design Consulting the ACCA design manuals Maintaining equipment and sustaining positive results   Stay tuned for the companion tech tip.

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend! I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks…   Summer: Hi doc! I would love your thoughts on calcium hydroxide or pickling lime, mainly for preserving eggs. Hens naturally slow way down in egg production in the winter so I'm looking for ways to preserve our excess farm eggs during the summer to have in the winter. Preserving the raw eggs in pickling lime is one option and I'm just not sure whether it's a good idea or not! Basically you submerge clean, raw, unwashed, day old eggs or freshly layed eggs in a solution of 1 oz lime to 1 quart water in jars or buckets. They are supposed to be good for up to a year and can be used just like a fresh egg. Just a bit skeptical of calcium hydroxide. Thanks for everything!   Patti: Hi, hope all is well. Any connection with calcium supplements & breast cancer? Thank you   Lacey: Diagnosed with early onset osteoporosis. Was only told I need to go on a pill and that still wouldn't fix it. What are lifestyle tips and steps to take to change this diagnosis??   Noreen: Hello Dr Cabral! Thank you for your commitment to health and well being, and for being such a great educator and practitioner. Have enjoyed your podcast for many years. Question - I have not seen you address or review the Terahertz Healing Wand or Blower. I heard about it earlier this year via the Budwig Center, which I follow, and then recently from a distributor. Gather it has been in the states for a few years and coming into use in alternative health care practices. Should your interest and time permit, would love to hear what you think in a future podcast. God's best to you and yours!   Anonymous: Good Morning Dr. Cabral! I recently had a small leak in my waterline (underground in my front yard) that was going one for around 3 months. During this time, I also noticed that the water coming out of my faucets was slightly cloudy and sometimes had a very subtle bad smell (like rotten eggs). I just had the leak identified and repaired, and the water is much clearer and odorless now. I always filter all drinking/cooking water through my Berkey filter, but while the leak was ongoing I was still exposed to certain unfiltered water (i.e. dishwasher, shower, sink, brushing teeth). My main question: is it possible that something leached into the water supply that could have affected my metabolism? During this time, my metabolism slowed a crazy amount (even though same exercise/diet)    Thank you for tuning into this weekend's Cabral HouseCalls and be sure to check back tomorrow for our Mindset & Motivation Monday show to get your week started off right! - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/2753 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?
