In this short podcast episode, Bryan and Roman Baugh talk about indoor air quality and microbial control, specifically MERV 15 filter physics and how it all works when bringing in outdoor air. We filter indoor air to keep dust and particles off the equipment and keep them from circulating through the air. However, we also need to filter fresh air. While indoor air has several pollutants, including dust and VOCs, that make outdoor air dilution a sensible solution, outdoor air also has spores and other pollutants we want to filter out, and its quality can be hard to evaluate. Roman had an ERV that fed his VRF system, and it had significant microbial growth inside; he had some MERV 6 filtration on it, but that didn't capture particles effectively enough. MERV ratings measure the ability to filter particles out, and we use a unit called microns to measure particle size; higher ratings indicate a greater filter surface area and a better ability to filter out smaller particles. ASHRAE 52.2 divides particles into three categories: E1 (ultra-fine particles between 0.3 and 1 micron in diameter), E2 (fine particles between 1 and 3 microns), and E3 (coarse particles between 3 and 10 microns in diameter). MERV 15 filters have a 90% capture rate of E2 particles and a 90%+ capture rate of E3 particles. Fungal spores tend to fall in the E2 or E3 category, and filtration can keep those from coming into the home with fresh air; bringing in fresh air to dilute indoor pollutants is good, but we need a nuanced approach, and good filtration (without bypass) is part of that equation. Filters can also capture much smaller particles due to the way those particles move. Smaller particles move via Brownian motion, which makes them move erratically and more likely to collide with filter media. However, filter use and design, as well as fresh air intake location, can also affect filter efficacy. Filters that don't fit well in the slot enable bypass, and some filters might be restrictive. Exhaust ventilation outlets also play a role, as wind can bring those pollutants back to fresh air intakes. Have a question that you want us to answer on the podcast?

In this live-stream episode, Bryan is joined by Tim DeStasio, John Semmelhack, and Ty Branaman for a deep dive into residential ventilation — the often-overlooked "V" in HVAC. The group opens with quick life updates before launching into a wide-ranging conversation covering the three core ventilation strategies (circulation, extraction, and dilution), how tight home construction changes the ventilation equation, and why there is no single "magic number" that works for every house. A major theme is the physics of pressurization and depressurization. Tim walks through balanced strategies (ERVs and HRVs), positive-pressure approaches using ventilating dehumidifiers, and exhaust-only setups — explaining why exhaust-only, while still code-compliant, is his least favorite option due to the risk of pulling air from crawl spaces, attics, or combustion appliances. Using REDCalc, Tim demonstrates how even modest airflow can swing a tight house's pressure by ten or more pascals, and the group discusses how wind, stack effect, and seasonal conditions constantly change a home's natural air exchange rate. Ty brings a service-focused perspective, emphasizing measurement before intervention — checking CO2, carbon monoxide, and other indicators before jumping to solutions like bigger fans or added dehumidification. He shares real-world stories, including a rental home with elevated CO from an unvented gas range, and stresses that building science problems (duct leakage, poorly placed bath fans, depressurized combustion appliances) often hide behind symptoms that look like simple ventilation shortfalls. Large kitchen range hoods get particular attention: hoods moving 1,200 CFM or more can seriously depressurize a house, and the group discusses code thresholds for interlocked and powered makeup air, along with practical products like the Fantech MUAS. John rounds out the discussion with a walkthrough of a real high-performance home design, showing how an ERV can serve both whole-house outside air and continuous bathroom exhaust, how MERV 16 pre-filtration has become a common upgrade since the 2021—2022 wildfire smoke events, and how an ERV can be configured to boost into a makeup-air role when a range hood kicks on. The episode closes with a look at ventilating dehumidifiers, demand-controlled ventilation, the tradeoffs of leaving blower fans in the "on" position, and recommended resources for anyone wanting to go deeper into building science. Topics Covered The three ventilation strategies: circulation, extraction, and dilution How tight, high-performance construction drives the need for mechanical ventilation Calculating and understanding natural air exchange rates Balanced (ERV/HRV), positive-pressure, and exhaust-only ventilation strategies Using REDCalc to model pressurization and depressurization Why exhaust-only ventilation can create combustion safety risks Designing ventilation with flexibility beyond code-minimum rates Measuring first: CO2, CO, and pollutant levels before choosing a solution Large range hoods, makeup air requirements, and the Fantech MUAS system Passive capture and range hood geometry (corner hoods vs. center islands) A real-world high-performance home ERV design walkthrough MERV 16 pre-filtration for outside air following regional wildfire smoke events Using an ERV in a makeup-air configuration for range hood operation Ventilating dehumidifier strategy and sizing considerations Demand-controlled ventilation and the new ASHRAE 62.2-2025 guidance Risks of leaving blower fans in the "on" position, including duct leakage effects Recommended building science resources: Joseph Lstiburek, Allison Bailes, and TEC classes Have a question that you want us to answer on the podcast?

Word for Today:James 4:16 ERV..you are proud and boast about yourself. All such boasting is wrong.ReflectionNot everything God blesses you with needs to be publicly displayed. What seems like harmless boasting can expose your vulnerabilities and give room to those with wrong motives. Celebrate with gratitude, but guard your life with wisdom.
God chooses people to do things who seem like the wrong choice to normal eyes. For example, He calls high school dropouts to start colleges, medical doctors to open art galleries, and so on. God specializes in using people who are seemingly the wrong person to do amazing things. If God called you to do it, then you are the perfect person to do it. __________ Corinthians 1:26–29 NIV, Exodus 3:9–10 ERV, Exodus 4:10 ERV, 1 Samuel 9:17,21 ERV, Matthew 13:54–56 KJV, John 1:45–46 KJV __________ Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com __________

Dzīvā daba ir tik daudzveidīga, arī pārsteidzoša un brīnišķīga. Viens no šādiem īpašiem dabas brīnumiem ir spāres. Spāres ir viens no senākajiem kukaiņiem uz mūsu planētas un miljoniem gadu laikā tā aizvien ir paturējusi sev dažas tai raksturīgās pazīmes. Kukaiņu pasaules pirmrindnieki – tā arī varētu dēvēt glītā paskata spāres, kas, izrādās, ir nadzīgi plēsēji. Ko zinām par spārēm senatnē un kāda ir spāru daudzveidība Latvijā? Par spārēm raidījumā Zināmais nezināmajā stāsta biologs un sugu un biotopu eksperts Mārtiņš Kalniņš, uzklausām arī paleontologu, Latvijas Universitātes profesoru Ervīnu Lukševiču. Bet vispirms izzinām, kas paludikultūra un kāda loma tajā ir niedrēm un vilku vālītēm? Iespējams, ka kāds jau sen ir audzē tādus augus kā miežabrālis vai melnalksnis, taču nav zinājis, ka to var dēvēt par paludikultūru. Un varbūt atklājums ir arī fakts, ka šos un citus augus, to biomasu var izmantot produktu ražošanā, sākot no ārstniecības līdz pat celtniecības materiāliem. Par paludikultūrām saruna ar Ezeru un purvu izpētes centra valdes priekšsēdētāju Ilzi Ozolu. Pēc izpētes centra dibināšanas 2016. gadā Latvijā pamazām ieviestas paludikultūras, balstoties Vācijas kolēģu ilgākā pieredzē. Savukārt aizvadītā gada rudenī Vācijas pilsētā Greifsvaldē liela mēroga konferencē par paludikultūru izmantošanu pulcējušies zinātnieki un praktiķi, un te bijusi iespēja iepazīt visdažādāko paludikultūru produktu prototipus. Ieviešot reālu produktu, ražotājam svarīgi, ka izejviela vēl ilgu laiku būs pieejama lielos apjomos, tāpēc tas var būt signāls kādam lauksaimniekam – ja viņa pārziņā ir teritorija ar kūdru un paaugstinātu ūdens līmeni, to nav obligāti jāsusina, jo tajā var audzēt ko neierastu un vērtīgu. Ko tad īsti nozīmē paludikultūras, skaidro Ilze Ozola.
It's another stellar episode of Time Signatures with Jim Ervin as Erv welcomes renowned guitarist and soulful storyteller, JP Soars. JP recently joined forces with acclaimed violinist, vocalist and songwriter, Anne Harris. Together, the two have collaborated to produce “Gypsy Blue Revue”, a 9 track masterpiece, which drops this Friday the 29th EVERYWHERE. The album flows seamlessly between Blues, Soul and even some Gypsy jazz music, featuring JP's skillful guitar licks and Anne's mastery on fiddle and mandolin.

In this episode of the Build Show Podcast, Matt Risinger sits down with Jordan Smith to work through the full spectrum of residential HVAC mechanical systems — from the bare minimum to the over-engineered. The conversation moves quickly from what not to do (single-stage compressors with flex duct in unconditioned attics) to what actually performs: separate air handlers per floor, dedicated dehumidification, and ERV systems for continuous fresh air. For two-story homes, both agree that zone dampers are a dead end and that two independent systems are the only real solution. The middle-ground sweet spot they land on is dual single-stage units paired with at least one dehumidifier and a basic fresh-air intake strategy. A recurring theme is that equipment brand matters far less than installer quality — a well-installed Goodman beats a poorly installed premium unit every time.

“Wisdom begins with fear and respect for the Lord. Knowledge of the Holy One leads to understanding. Wisdom will help you live longer; she will add years to your life.” - Proverbs 9:10-11 ERV
Bible Study Most believers already have a good basic knowledge of what God has called them to do because God has not been hiding it from them. He has revealed it to them throughout their lives. The real issue is that many of us have not accepted our calling. We are full of self doubt and excuses. However, until we willingly accept our calling, we won't have clarity about our calling. __________ Exodus 3:10–14 ERV, Exodus 4:1,8,10–17 ERV, Luke 4:16–22 NLT, Judges 13:5 NIV, Judges 16:18–19 NIV, Judges 16:26–30 NLT __________ Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com Leave a Comment: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/comments __________

This band has taken the worlds of the Blues, Roots, and Soul and turned them on their collective heads to form a completely unique Blues-related genre known as “Mem-Phunk”. From the famed Ryman Auditorium to Beale Street, this band has deep ties to music that crosses generations, and the two are here to talk about the foundations of the band, featuring Kim's now deceased uncle, the genesis of the band's iconic name, their 22 month run on the Top 50 Blues-Rock Album chart, their three songs from the album ‘Alive' that were mainstays on Sirius XM's B.B. King's Bluesville, and their 2020 Blues Blast Award or Best Debut CD.

Ready to turn your home into a haven of fresh air? Join me, Eric G, and my buddy John Dudley as we dive into the world of ventilation with our good friend Ken Nelson from Panasonic Eco Systems. We're tackling the big stuff—like why proper ventilation is the unsung hero of home comfort and health. Spoiler alert: it's not just about avoiding that funky bathroom smell; we're talking about keeping your indoor air quality top-notch and preventing that delightful mold garden from sprouting in your garage. So, if you're ready to breathe easier and maybe learn a thing or two about how to keep your air (and your home) feeling fresh, then stay tuned! If you've ever walked into your garage and thought, 'Wow, it feels like a swamp in here,' then boy, do Eric G. and John Dudley have a treat for you! In this lively episode, they sit down with Ken Nelson from Panasonic Eco Systems to tackle the often-overlooked topic of ventilation. Spoiler alert: it's not just about avoiding that horrid bathroom fog! Ken dives deep into the world of Energy Recovery Ventilators (ERVs) and how they can transform your indoor air quality from ‘yikes' to ‘ahh.' We learn that moisture isn't just a bathroom problem; it lurks in your kitchen and garage too, ready to wreak havoc on your precious belongings. Ken humorously shares his personal experiences with Panasonic products, emphasizing their longevity and efficiency. The trio explores the absurdities of building codes and how they often miss the mark on practical ventilation solutions. Plus, they discuss the importance of maintaining those fancy gadgets to keep your home breathing easy. So, grab a drink, kick back, and get ready to rethink your home's air flow!Takeaways:Ventilation is not just about the bathroom; it's crucial for kitchens and garages too, so stop ignoring those moisture issues, folks!Panasonic's ERVs can reject up to 90% of moisture, meaning if it's 80% humidity outside, you could be breathing in a cool 55% inside. No more sweaty living!Mechanical ventilation is key because relying on open windows is like hoping for a miracle every time the wind blows—let's be real, it rarely works like that.The right ventilation system can save you big bucks on energy costs, so invest wisely instead of going for the cheapest options that just gather dust.Don't skimp on filter changes in your ERV; that filter is your home's first line of defense against the nasty outdoor air, and ignoring it is just asking for trouble.If your ventilation is only as good as your building code allows, you're basically living in a barely legal house—time to step it up!Companies mentioned in this episode:Panasonic VentilationPanasonic EcosystemsThanks for listening to Around the house if you want to hear more please subscribe so you get notified of the latest episode as it posts at https://around-the-house-with-e.captivate.fm/listenIf you want to join the Around the House Insider for access to the back catalog, Exclusive Content and a direct email to Eric G and access to the show early https://around-the-house-with-e.captivate.fm/support...
Daily Study Many Christian entrepreneurs want God to increase their business, but growth does not always stop for financial or strategic reasons. This Daily Word examines a leadership principle from 3 John that reveals how truth must be able to move freely through a business for God to scale and sustain it. Using the examples of Gaius, Diotrephes, and Demetrius, this message shows how hospitality allows truth to flow, ego blocks correction, and integrity sustains long-term growth. It also highlights John's warning not to imitate what is evil, explaining how unguarded success can quietly reshape standards and undermine alignment. Christian entrepreneurs are encouraged to examine whether their leadership posture allows truth, accountability, and goodness to govern their decisions so God can trust their business with increase. __________ 3 John 1 CSB, Hebrews 13:1-2 TPT, Romans 12:13 TPT, Proverbs 16:18 ERV, James 4:6 NLT, Proverbs 11:3 MSG, Luke 16:10 NLT __________ Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com Leave a Comment: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/comments __________

In this special "Best of RESTALK 2025" episode, host Bill Spohn looks back at the ideas and conversations that defined the year across the RESNET® ecosystem. Rather than a simple highlight reel, this episode weaves four major themes that kept surfacing—from sweeping QA modernization efforts to the market forces accelerating HERS adoption to the emerging leaders reshaping the industry to the on-the-ground projects proving that high performance and affordability can coexist. Across conversations with QA directors, software leaders, conference fellows, builders, lenders, and RESNET® founder Steve Baden, 2025 revealed an industry that's both maturing and reinventing itself. The year's strongest clips capture this mix of evolution and momentum: real-time QA replacing annual reports, financing that rewards low-carbon construction, programs nurturing new talent, and innovative housing models—from 3D-printed concrete to all-electric Habitat townhomes—delivering measurable results for families. Whether you're a rater, builder, program manager, lender, policymaker, or simply someone who cares about the future of housing, this episode connects the dots on where RESNET® is headed—and why the next few years will be pivotal for quality, credibility, and impact. Major Themes Covered 1. QA as the Backbone: Apps, Automation & Trust Episodes: EP137, EP140, EP144, EP146 How RESNET® is modernizing QA with real-time data, tech upgrades, stronger staffing, and clearer processes—protecting the credibility of HERS® as volumes scale. 2. Market Signals, Money & Scaling HERS® Episodes: EP136, EP138, EP142, EP145, EP146 Why HERS® grows fastest where incentives and financing tools align—and how products like C-PACE and tax credits are turning performance into business value. 3. The People Pipeline: Conferences, Emerging Leaders & New Roles Episodes: EP136, EP137, EP138, EP146 The next generation of raters, analysts, and QA specialists entering the field, and how programs like Emerging Leaders keep the talent pipeline strong. 4. High-Performance, Affordable & Innovative Housing in Practice Episodes: EP139, EP141, EP143, EP145, EP146 Real projects—3D-printed homes, ERV best practices, net-zero-ready Habitat homes—showing that innovation and affordability can move together. Featured Guests (Across 2025 Episodes) Scott Doyle – Managing Director of QA, RESNET® Laurel Elam – Senior Director, RESNET® Steve Baden – Executive Director & RESNET® Founder Tricia Baker – Senior VP of Strategy & Impact, PACE Equity Carl Pier – In-house Engineer & HERS® Modeler, PACE Equity Emerging Leaders & Fellows – RESNET® ELC participants Raters, Builders & Habitat Teams from EP139, EP143, and others To the RESNET® community, we hear you and want to engage.

Cooksey shares his proven methodology for turning IAQ into an "instant profit center" by implementing systematic testing on every service call. Cooksey opens with a striking reality check: according to the EPA, Americans spend 90% of their time indoors, yet indoor air quality is 2-5 times worse than outdoor air. This presents a massive opportunity for HVAC contractors, as he explains that consumers are already spending $10 billion annually on air quality products at big box stores - but they're treating symptoms rather than addressing root causes. His approach involves educating contractors on how to position themselves as the solution providers rather than letting customers self-diagnose with retail products. The presentation dives deep into six critical IAQ parameters that every contractor should measure: particles (especially dangerous PM 2.5), volatile organic compounds (VOCs), carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, humidity, and temperature. Cooksey emphasizes his "test in, implement solution, test out" methodology, demonstrating how this systematic approach not only ensures customer satisfaction but also provides concrete proof of value delivered. He shares real-world examples, including a dramatic case where routine IAQ testing during a water heater service call revealed a cracked heat exchanger that could have been life-threatening. The episode concludes with extensive coverage of ventilation strategies, which Cooksey calls the "silver bullet" for IAQ improvement. He walks through the differences between supply-only, exhaust-only, and balanced ventilation systems, strongly advocating for Energy Recovery Ventilators (ERVs) as the optimal solution. His practical approach includes using DOE's free REDCalc tool for proper ventilation sizing and emphasizes the importance of controlled ventilation over relying on natural air leakage - debunking the myth that "houses need to breathe." Topics Covered The IAQ Business Case: How testing indoor air quality on every service call creates new revenue streams and differentiates contractors in a commoditized market Six Critical IAQ Parameters: Detailed explanation of particles (PM 2.5), VOCs, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, humidity, and temperature - what they are, how to measure them, and health impacts Systematic Testing Methodology: The "test in, implement solution, test out" approach that provides measurable results and customer proof of value Particle Control Strategies: Source control, enhanced filtration (MERV 13-16), duct cleaning benefits, and duct sealing with Aeroseal technology Chemical and VOC Management: Understanding formaldehyde and benzene sources, proper storage techniques, and why PCO devices aren't recommended Carbon Monoxide Detection: The life-saving importance of testing every home, understanding chronic vs. acute exposure, and why standard CO detectors aren't sufficient Ventilation as the Silver Bullet: Comprehensive coverage of supply-only, exhaust-only, and balanced ventilation strategies, with strong emphasis on ERV systems Practical Implementation Tools: Using DOE's REDCalc tool for ventilation sizing, integrating IAQ testing into service calls, and customer communication strategies Real-World Case Studies: Multiple examples of IAQ testing uncovering dangerous conditions, from cracked heat exchangers to improper combustion appliance installation Building Science Integration: How IAQ testing leads to broader building performance improvements, including duct sealing, insulation, and equipment sizing corrections Have a question that you want us to answer on the podcast?

Bible Reading: Genesis 1:27; 1 Peter 1:18-19"I don't get it, Grandpa." Malik scratched his head as he looked at the painting. "What is it?""Well, the title is Three Musicians. Try squinting your eyes and tilting your head." "I think I see a clarinet and a guitar, but the musicians look a little creepy.""That's the beauty of art," said Grandpa. "Everyone sees something different." Malik and his grandparents were spending the afternoon at an art museum. Malik had never seen so many paintings and sculptures. Hundreds of pieces of artwork hung on walls that stretched on for what seemed like miles. "Which painting is your favorite, Malik?" Grandma asked."I'm not sure, Grammy. Some of these paintings look like they were painted by a three-year-old. Other paintings look way better than anything I could paint. If I had to pick my favorite, it might be Three Musicians. I like that you have to think about what you're looking at. How much do you think a painting like that costs?"Grandma shrugged. Grandpa scratched his chin. "I'm sure that painting costs millions of dollars.""Millions of dollars!" Malik couldn't believe it. "It doesn't look that valuable." Grandpa smiled. "It's not valuable because of how it looks. It's valuable because of who made it. Three Musicians was painted by Pablo Picasso, one of the greatest artists of all time. Many people consider it to be one of his masterpieces." Grandma put her arm around Malik. "Every time I come here I can't help but think that none of these masterpieces compare to God's masterpieces.""God's masterpieces?" asked Malik. "Where are God's masterpieces?" Grandma smiled. "Take a look in the mirror.""Me?" Malik asked."You got it. The Bible says God made all of us in His image. We're God's masterpieces. Our value doesn't come from how we look, but from who made us.""That's right," Grandpa chimed in. "The Bible also says God paid a high price for us. He sent His Son to die on the cross to save us from sin. Jesus paid for us with His life so we could belong to Him." Malik took out his phone and snapped a picture of himself with his grandparents. Grandma looked at it and smiled. "Now that's a masterpiece!" –Jared HottensteinHow About You?Have you ever looked in the mirror and seen something you didn't like? Maybe you think your nose is too big or your hair is too curly. The next time you find something about your body you wish you could change, remember that God made you, and He doesn't make mistakes. He made you in His image, and Jesus paid for you with His life. That determines your value--not what you look like. Today's Key Verse:God paid a very high price to make you his. So honor God with your body. (ERV) (1 Corinthians 6:20 )Today's Key Thought:You are God's masterpiece
In this episode of the HVAC School podcast, Bryan welcomes back Brynn Cooksey from Air Doctors and HVAC U to discuss critical topics facing the HVAC industry today. Brynn brings his unique perspective as both a successful contractor in southeast Michigan and an industry educator who has made the transition to focusing primarily on workforce development and training. The conversation begins with a deep dive into indoor air quality (IAQ), where Brynn challenges the common industry approach of throwing products at problems without proper testing. He emphasizes that effective IAQ solutions start with comprehensive testing to identify specific issues like high particles, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), or excessive carbon dioxide levels. Rather than relying on "magic bullet" products, Brynn advocates for a holistic approach that prioritizes ventilation strategies, source control, and proper filtration. He particularly stresses the importance of the "V" in HVAC, ventilation, which he believes is often overlooked in favor of flashier solutions. His company's protocol of testing on every customer visit, from first encounters to maintenance calls, has created a culture where technicians become comfortable discussing IAQ solutions based on actual data rather than assumptions. The discussion transitions into ethical sales practices, a topic that resonates strongly in an industry where pressure to sell can sometimes conflict with customer needs. Brynn defines unethical sales as pressuring customers into products that won't benefit them or failing to provide complete information about benefits and consequences. His approach centers on thorough customer surveys to understand actual problems and budget constraints, followed by tying specific solutions to identified issues. This methodology puts the customer in control of decisions while positioning the contractor as a trusted advisor rather than a high-pressure salesperson. Brynn argues that price alone doesn't determine ethics - rather, it's the intent behind recommendations and the transparency of communication that matters most. The final segment focuses on workforce development, an area where Brynn has found significant success. His company's registered apprenticeship program, developed through the Department of Labor, has become a competitive advantage in attracting talent while providing structured, in-house training. The program requires minimal cost beyond commitment to ethical treatment of apprentices and systematic tracking of their progress. Brynn's transition from contractor to educator demonstrates the growing need for comprehensive training programs that go beyond basic technical skills to include building science, customer service, and ethical business practices. His ongoing weekly training sessions focus on field trends and callback prevention, contributing to an impressive callback rate of less than 0.5%.
