In this episode, HVAC veteran Adam Mufich of National Comfort Institute (NCI) pulls back the curtain on one of the industry's most overlooked problems: the majority of residential HVAC systems in the United States are not delivering the correct amount of airflow. Drawing on decades of hands-on experience, Adam opens up about his own journey from confident installer to humbled diagnostician, sharing the moment he started measuring his systems and realized how much he had been getting wrong. His candor and expertise make this a must-listen for any HVAC professional serious about doing better work. Adam walks listeners through a sobering picture painted by a Department of Energy study covering 44 research projects across the country. The data reveals that between 50 and 93 percent of systems tested moved less than the minimum 350 CFM per ton of capacity, and between 67 and 100 percent of systems leaked more than 100 CFM to the outside. Equipment oversizing is rampant, with some studies showing that up to 93 percent of systems exceed what Manual J calculations would call for. The ripple effects are enormous: compressor failures, blown blower motors, cracked heat exchangers, wasted energy, and homeowners who are simply not comfortable in their own homes. Adam argues that the single most powerful fix is also the most underused one — properly sizing the equipment in the first place. The bulk of the episode dives into two distinct approaches NCI teaches for addressing these problems. The first is the Air Upgrade, a targeted set of repairs focused near the equipment to reduce static pressure and increase fan airflow. This includes reworking the filter system (a commonly undersized 16x25x1 filter can triple the allowed pressure budget on its own), improving duct fittings with lower equivalent lengths, cleaning evaporator coils and blower wheels, adjusting fan speed, and sealing duct joints. The second approach is full Duct Optimization, a more comprehensive renovation that addresses the entire duct system, incorporates Manual D calculations, installs balancing dampers, improves insulation, and uses tools like flow hoods and MeasureQuick to verify that every room in the house is receiving the correct airflow and BTUs. Adam also spends time on the practical and human side of this work — how to talk to homeowners, how to prioritize what matters to them, and how to overcome the very real obstacles that keep technicians from doing thorough airflow work. He addresses everything from fear of opening walls (his solution: build relationships with drywall contractors and offer turnkey repairs) to the simple but powerful mindset shift of treating airflow as something to be measured, not felt with your hand. His closing message is clear: the tools and methods exist, the training is available, and virtually every house in the country has a problem worth solving. The only thing standing in the way is the willingness to do it right. Topics Covered The current state of the HVAC industry based on a DOE meta-analysis of 44 studies Why equipment oversizing is the number one contributor to airflow problems and how to address it How a 50 percent oversized AC system can increase energy consumption by up to 91 percent (per the ASME Journal of Sustainable Buildings) Tools for proper load calculations, including Ample Energy and Conduit apps Why most systems are not moving enough airflow and what the consequences are (heat exchanger failures, compressor failures, comfort complaints) Duct leakage to the outside and its effects on comfort, indoor air quality, and building pressurization The four pillars of NCI's approach: safe, healthy, comfortable, and efficient systems The Air Upgrade approach: targeted repairs near the equipment to reduce static pressure and increase fan airflow The Duct Optimization approach: full duct system renovation with balanced airflow to every room Static pressure profiling: taking four measurements (before/after filter and before/after coil) to pinpoint restrictions Static pressure budgets and how to use them to identify which part of a system is the biggest problem Fan Law 2 as a planning tool to predict system performance before making changes The TrueFlow Grid and its forecasting feature for planning equipment changes Filter sizing and its massive impact on total external static pressure Duct fitting equivalent lengths and how to reduce resistance near the equipment Sealing duct joints and why it adds static pressure that must be planned for The importance of rechecking and adjusting refrigerant charge after any airflow improvement Air balancing with a flow hood to verify delivered CFM at every register Measuring delivered BTUs using tools like MeasureQuick, JobLink, and NCI's ComfortMax workflow Overcoming obstacles: technician buy-in, access to ducts in walls, attic space limitations, and homeowner hesitation Building relationships with drywall contractors to offer turnkey duct repair solutions Why airflow is invisible and why measuring it is non-negotiable   To learn more about NCI and its training offerings, visit https://www.nationalcomfortinstitute.com/.

Are heavy environments, old arguments, or stressful commutes taking over your peace of mind? In this guided Distance Reiki journey, Robyn Benelli leads you through a sacred exercise to scan, clear, bless, and seal your physical surroundings. Learn how to leverage the power of Reiki symbols to dissolve stagnant emotional residue and negative thought loops, restoring divine mind clarity and nervous system regulation to your home, office, or vehicle. Key Insights Environmental Maintenance for Your Authentic Self: Environments hold onto an energetic footprint of daily life, causing your emotional state to shift the moment you step into a compromised area—such as a kitchen sink, a car, or an office. Scanning your space allows you to identify where these fields drop, letting you purposefully restore the area back to a state that matches your authentic mind. Rooting Out the Source of the Imprint: Heavy energy often lingers because it's anchored to a past event or relationship. By deploying the distance symbol to the origin of the imprint, Reiki steps outside of time to clear the stagnation from its point of inception all the way forward to your present day, creating a permanent filter of light. Sealing Your Space for Ongoing Protection: Clearing an environment is only half the battle; structural boundaries must be established. Intentionally drawing or intending the power symbol (CKR) and mental-emotional symbol (SHK) over thresholds, mirrors, doors, and windows acts as a structural seal that protects the space from outside projections and helps the room continuously hold its high-frequency vibration. People Also Ask (FAQ) How can I do a space clearing if I don't know all the Reiki symbols? You do not need to be attuned to specific symbols to clear a space. Reiki energy responds entirely to your pure intention and higher self. Simply channeling pure Reiki love and light into a room while asking your spiritual guides to lift heavy densities will perfectly accomplish the clearing. What does it mean to "seal" a room after clearing it? Sealing a room means locking in the elevated frequency and protecting it against future attachments. You can do this by intending or drawing Reiki symbols over doors, windows, mirrors, and thresholds, effectively turning your structural boundaries into a divine filter that only permits love, peace, and clarity to reside there. Can you use Reiki to clear an entire commute or neighborhood? Yes. Because Reiki operates beyond physical boundaries, your intention can stretch the energy field across entire geographic lines. You can intend for Reiki to clear your entire commute path from home to work, clear an entire multi-unit apartment building, or anchor healing light into the very land your home rests upon.

Should we still be drilling early caries lesions? Where do peptides, resin infiltration, fluoride varnish and SDF actually fit in modern practice? Is hydroxyapatite toothpaste a genuine alternative to fluoride, or just another dental trend? And when you see that suspicious grey occlusal shadow, do you seal it, explore it, or actively surveil it? In part two of this modern caries management episode, Jaz continues the conversation with Prof. Avijit Banerjee on minimal intervention dentistry. This episode moves beyond diagnosis and communication into the practical management of early and progressing caries lesions, including peptides, SDF, hydroxyapatite toothpaste, fissure sealing, xerostomia, root caries and selective caries removal. https://youtu.be/dGt7FW7C4N0 Watch PDP269 on YouTube Protrusive Dental Pearl Use the Contemporary Caries Management Implementation Pack as a chairside aid to turn the episode into daily clinical action. ⚠️ Learning the evidence is not enough if it never makes it into your patient conversations, risk assessment or treatment planning. ✅ Print it, laminate it, and use it to support communication, diagnosis, active surveillance and minimally invasive decision-making.

It is intended as a practical summary and is not a substitute for primary sources. We strongly encourage all clinicians to consult the latest Clinical Practice Guidelines before making treatment decisions. Key Takeaways: Peptides are designed to infiltrate early enamel lesions and create a scaffold for mineral deposition. Peptide technologies still need minerals from saliva, toothpaste, mouthwash or other sources to work. Fluoride supports remineralisation; it acts more like the “mortar” than the “bricks”. Early E1 lesions are usually managed with prevention, fluoride, oral hygiene, diet control and biofilm control. Deeper enamel lesions, such as progressing E1 or E2 lesions, may be suitable for resin infiltration or peptide infiltration. SDF is better suited to cavitated lesions where arrest and stabilisation are needed. In the UK, SDF is licensed for dentine sensitivity, so caries arrest is an off-label use. SDF can be very useful for children, older adults, medically compromised patients and care-home patients. The main downside of conventional SDF is black staining, especially on anterior teeth. Hydroxyapatite toothpaste has more science behind it than charcoal-style fad toothpastes. Fluoride toothpaste remains the preferred baseline recommendation when patients are happy to use fluoride. A suspicious grey occlusal lesion should be assessed in the context of the patient's overall caries risk. In selected cases, a tiny exploratory opening can act like a diagnostic biopsy. Sealing fissures on the same tooth being restored can be sensible when the fissure pattern is deep. For severe xerostomia and root caries risk, consider high-fluoride regimes, close recalls, trays or dentures as carriers for remineralising agents.

This Day in Maine for Tuesday, April 21, 2026.

Eric J. Dolan explores the lucrative sealing industry of the early 19th century, where millions of pelts were harvested for the Chinese market at five dollars each. Against the backdrop of the looming War of 1812, risk-taker Charles Barnardand his 63-year-old father Valentine departed New York on the brig Nanina, timing their exit just as an embargo was being implemented. The presence of four different captains created a volatile leadership dynamic, setting the stage for a dramatic collision between young America and Great Britain at the "edge of the world."

Part 2: Saints, Sealing, and Salvation

In this episode of the Peskies Pest Control Podcast, hosts Michael Wienecke and Travis McGowin dive into the gritty details of what they call the “nastiest, grossest ant in Alabama”—the Argentine ant. The duo explores the unique biological traits of these invasive pests, such as their monomorphic size and their tendency to form massive supercolonies that can span thousands of miles. Beyond just being a nuisance, the hosts highlight the genuine health risks these ants pose as they travel from damp areas like sewage and stagnant water directly into home pantries, potentially spreading diseases like E. coli, salmonella and dysentery. From the “musty odor” they emit when squished to practical “ounce of prevention” tips for sealing up your home, this episode provides a comprehensive guide to identifying and controlling one of the most prolific pests in the South. Watch this on YouTube! Podcast Transcript:Michael Wienecke 0:00Hey. So here on the Peskies Pest Control Podcast, we are going to talk about the nastiest, grossest ant in Alabama, and that is the Argentine ant. It is. It's gross. It crawls over sewage and poop and gets in people's food sometimes, and it just causes dysentery,Travis McGowin 0:18among many other things. I'm sure there's probably some E coli, salmonella and all that in there too.Michael Wienecke 0:26Look, dysentery is just it reminds me of, like, Oregon Trail. Remember that game Oregon Trail? It's like, what'd you die from dysentery?Travis McGowin 0:34I think everybody died from dysentery on that game, if I'm not mistaken. It's a very common theme, apparently. But anyway, no, the Argentine ant definitely, definitely, a very prolific ant in terms of size, colony size and whatnot that, you know, originally came around from Argentina and basically South America, very large area of South America, and was very likely introduced, you know, because of world trade shipping and trade routes and that sort of thing, like most of our very invasive pests are introduced to other countries.Michael Wienecke 1:09It's crazy to me how most rats, bugs, you know, other animals, have gone over from shipping. I mean, shipping has just transported so many different species of animals from one continent to another, absolutely.Travis McGowin 1:26I mean, when you consider, you know, pests in general, and the problems that they've caused throughout history, and then, you know, we all want to be interconnected and trade and and all these things. But, I mean, it does come with its consequences. You know, it's, it is one caveat to being a more, I guess, unified world in that sense, nature, nature. So, you know, tell us a little bit about some of the physical characteristics of the Argentine ant.Michael Wienecke 1:59So really, it's brown, light brown, kind of blackish colored. You know, really, biggest thing is you're going to find them around the the outside of your structure, your house, leave debris, large stacks of wood. We always kind of joke about Argentine ants, because they are just they wreak havoc once you find a nest. I mean, they just come in Super colonies and just come out of the woodwork.Travis McGowin 2:27RIght, and then when you squish them, they stink,Michael Wienecke 2:30Yes, the musty odor, yes. They do a bit when you when you stink them, or when you squish them, they do stink, yes.Travis McGowin 2:35And unlike some, you know, some ant colonies out there can be what we we call polymorphic, but Argentine ants are monomorphic, so typically they are all one size in when you look at them.Michael Wienecke 2:51Well, and that sounds really boring, but we're trying to do an inspection, knowing if they're poly or mono is very important, because that gives that leads us to what type of ant we have, whether a carpenter ant, Argentine ant, fire ant, Pharaoh ant, you know, kind of going over all the ants.Travis McGowin 3:10Right, and you know, Argentine ants are known to have very large colony sizes, so, and when you consider that approximately 90% of the colony are workers. I mean, they get things done, and they get it done in a hurry. So, you know, from the time that they're an egg to the time that they're an adult is roughly around 100 days, give or take, depending upon, obviously, the colony and weather and all that sort of thing. But by spring, they've got this very large build up of colonies, or excuse me, colony members, you know, and so, I mean, there's, there's even a documented case over in Europe of a colony Spain, one colony ultimately spanning 3700 miles.Michael Wienecke 3:56That is a long way. I believe it was, what Italy to what does it say Spain?Travis McGowin 4:03I don't remember exactly, but it was, it was a very, very long way for one ant colony to have spread.Michael Wienecke 4:11Yeah, that's wild. They Well, I mean, in a super colony over winter, or colonize over winters to survive, and then in the summertime, they just, they explode.Travis McGowin 4:19Right, absolutely. So, you know, when they're out and about foraging around, they do prefer sugars, especially like honeydew or sweets. They you know, ants are funny. Most all types of ants can kind of transition and switch their foraging behaviors over based upon, you know, the time of year that it is. So they may go from sweets to proteins and back and forth or what have you, but the primary diet of these ants is something sweet, and when they run out of honeydew, what do they come for?Michael Wienecke 4:53Well, honeydew, honeydew and aphids, they're coming for any kind of sweet, sticky liquid or sugary, you know. A sweet what do we all eat in the summertime and, you know, all that, so, cookies, cakes, all that kind of stuff.Travis McGowin 5:05Yeah, so they're coming for your sweets. Yes, yeah, yes. And you know, they like moisture as well. So, you know that's the problem with them, though. You know they're looking for these moist, damp areas. Well, what areas are moist and damp? You're talking about areas with sewage, stagnant water, areas those types of things. And like we said at the beginning, you're talking about the high potential that these insects can cause you and your family to be sick, because everything they touch with their legs, that they crawl across, and then they come and they invade and infest your pantry or wherever it is, inside your house and your your surfaces, your countertops, things like that. Everything that they've touched before they got to that point is fair game to be placed down on everything that you have.Michael Wienecke 5:55Well, what's the amount of sewage that you let in your food? What's the what's the percentage that you're okay with.Travis McGowin 6:01I would hope my percentage is, can you get a negative percentage? You know, but no, 0% 0% is what I want,Michael Wienecke 6:12Yeah and again, like I said, they're nasty. They just blow up in the summer or the springtime. And we're seeing a lot of calls right now on these ants, and they are a booger to control, because just like Travis said, we've got 10% queens, we've got 90% workers. Well, 10% doesn't seem like a lot, but in a colony, 10% is a lot, so we have to kill those queens, to kill that colony.Travis McGowin 6:36Well, you know, and that their their activity, their influx of activity, you know, comes and goes. A lot of it depends on what's going on around the outside in their world, whether it's extremely wet or extremely dry. That can push these ants to, you know, increase their activity. One of the big things though, that homeowners can do to help themselves, you know, obviously, there's pesticides and different things that you can use, but sealing off access points is great. These ants like to run up and down. Utility lines, service entries, plumbing, things that go inside the wall of your house, you know, HVAC lines, those sorts of things. Sealing up those things. You know, anyone who's listened to us for any length of time, has heard me say this multiple times, like, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, right? Just doing those little things,Michael Wienecke 7:27I think I'm gonna get you a t shirt with that on there.Travis McGowin 7:30And get it on the wall behind me.Michael Wienecke 7:32Brodie asked me that the other day and I was like, I don't know, a pound of cure.Travis McGowin 7:37You totally. You butchered it, didn't you? You butchered my saying,Michael Wienecke 7:41I It's not mine, it's not mine. All to you.Travis McGowin 7:43Yeah, but, but anyway, helping yourself out just a little bit like that, a lot of times, will solve some of your problems. Now, granted, they are ants, and they can kind of fit into any small gap they want to. And I'm convinced that if all ants pulled their resources together, they could take over the world. But along the way, they could, they could, they're very strong. But, yeah, an ounce of prevention is totally worth a pound of cure in some of these situations.Michael Wienecke 8:09Well, and sealing up your house is great too, but I know we've talked about too is, is the the environmental factors around the home, major water sources that are going to draw these guys in? I mean, even sealing up a home, just like Travis said, you know, your home has to breathe, so you can't seal every inch of it, or it would just mold and fall apart. So getting rid of the firewood, like I talked about the you know, everybody's kind of cleaning up their yard right now, raking all that old pine straw out, which is no fun, and it makes it more expensive, but it's kind of important on a pest control level, because you're getting all that nasty gunk out of that those beds right next to your house, and you're kind of starting over fresh and giving it a fresh environment. So just things of that nature can, can stop ants, you know, in their tracks, or having a nesting site.Travis McGowin 8:57Yeah, and they are notorious for nesting in things like potted plants.Michael Wienecke 9:01Oh yeah, and eight inches deep, I mean, rocks, potted plants along the driveways.

Dr Jonathan Stapley takes us inside LDS temple ceremonies, including the Initiatory, Endowment, and Sealing ceremony changes over the years. Was the sealing ceremony more egalitarian under Joseph Smith than Brigham Young? Check out our conversation…. https://youtu.be/uOdluwXxYVQ Don't miss our other discussions with Jonathan. https://gospeltangents.com/people/jonathan_stapley Copyright © 2026 Gospel Tangents All Rights Reserved Dr. Jonathan Stapley, author of Holiness to the Lord, explores the fascinating historical evolution of temple ordinances, clarifying the differences between early Kirtland practices, the introduction of Masonic elements in Nauvoo, and the shifting language of the sealing ceremony. Myth of the “OG” Endowment When asked about fundamentalist groups attempting to reconstruct an “original” eight-hour endowment complete with wrist-and-ankle-length garments, Stapley states bluntly that a static, “Platonic ideal” of the endowment never existed. Because the early liturgy was transmitted orally, the ceremony has continually adapted and changed from its very inception. It wasn’t until the Wilford Woodruff era in the St. George Temple that the endowment ceremony was finally written down. Stapley pushes back against the idea that changes to the wording prove apostasy, noting that Brigham Young continuously made changes to the ritual in Nauvoo, the Council House, the Endowment House, and finally the St. George temple. LDS Temple Ceremonies: Kirtland vs. Nauvoo Ordinances Stapley clarifies a common historical misconception: in the Kirtland era, the washing and anointing was a completely separate event from the “endowment”. Washing and Anointing: This was an annual ritual limited strictly to male priesthood officers, purposely patterned after the biblical consecration of ancient Israelite priests. The Kirtland Endowment: This was a solemn assembly where participants feasted on the Lord’s supper, washed each other’s feet, and experienced charismatic spiritual outpourings. It wasn’t until the Nauvoo era that these concepts merged and expanded to include all men and women. Furthermore, Stapley notes that there is no compelling historical data to support the idea that the modern temple liturgy is hidden within the text of the Book of Mormon as Don Bradley has suggested. Masonic “Social Technology” In 1842, Joseph Smith participated in a Masonic initiation, a fraternity ritual that used dramatic progression, hand clasps, and promises of secrecy to tell the mythical story of Hiram Abiff, the builder of Solomon’s temple. Stapley explains that Joseph Smith borrowed this Masonic “social technology”—the structural framework of the ritual—but used it to tell a completely different story. Instead of Masonic lore, Latter-day Saints used this interactive format, alongside biblical priestly clothing, to teach the plan of salvation, including the creation, the fall, and humanity’s return to the presence of God. The Evolving Sealing Ceremony The episode also reveals fascinating details about the first sealing ceremonies. The earliest known text is an 1842 polygamous sealing ceremony written by Joseph Smith for the Whitney family, which is currently available on the Joseph Smith Papers website. When historians compare this 1842 text to a Nauvoo Temple sealing ceremony published by Orson Pratt in 1852, they find substantive differences. According to Stapley, the 1842 ceremony under Joseph Smith was notably more egalitarian, while the later Nauvoo versions incorporated Brigham Young’s views on the subordination of women. (To be fair, Jonathan stated there is no such thing as egalitarian in the 19th century, just varying levels.)   Ultimately, Stapley reminds us that early Latter-day Saints simply did not value word-for-word repetition the way modern members do; even foundational prayers, like the sacrament and baptismal prayers, were often extemporized during Joseph Smith’s lifetime.

Who are the 144,000, and what does it mean when they are referred to in Revelation chapter seven as being sealed? Is this a literal moment in time or is this some largely symbolic metaphor? If it's literal, how do we respond and what does it mean for us? If it's metaphorical, what in the world does it represent? We hope to answer those questions and more today on Light on the Hill.

We play Chapter 5 and 6 of Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment. Along the way, we discuss the sparsity of Ganondorf, the new tension between the elemental forces of Sacred Power and Gloom, and the impressive achievement of a retelling of Ocarina of Time with less moral complexity.

Temple sealing cancellations after divorce can feel overwhelming — especially when you've built your life around eternal family. If your temple marriage ended and you've found yourself wondering: What happens to my sealing? Are my children still sealed? Who will they be with in eternity? Does a sealing cancellation change everything? You are not alone. In this deeply personal episode, I share my own experience walking through a sealing cancellation and the concerns I had about my children and eternity. I also discuss what I learned from the Director of Temple Ordinances and Policies at the BYU Life After Divorce Conference — including a simple explanation that brought me real peace. We'll talk about: • Birthright blessings for children born in the covenant • What the Church Handbook actually says • Why imperfect Church leaders don't determine your eternal destiny • How resentment can weigh us down — and how the love of God lifts it If you're navigating LDS divorce and struggling with temple sealing questions, this episode will help you anchor your faith in what matters most: a just, merciful, covenant-keeping God. We may not get all the answers in mortality. But we can choose to trust that He will make all things right.

Most HVAC contractors focus on equipment upgrades, but one of the biggest opportunities for better installs and higher profit is hiding in the ductwork. In this episode of Service Business Mastery, recorded live at AHR 2026 in Las Vegas, Tersh Blissett sits down with Jarrod Scott from Aeroseal to explain how duct sealing from the inside works, why it is different from traditional mastic and tape, and how contractors can use it to improve comfort, increase system efficiency, reduce callbacks, and create a real competitive advantage. They also discuss commercial and multifamily applications, how to think about static pressure, and why tighter buildings must still breathe through controlled mechanical ventilation. What You Will Learn in This Episode • How internal duct sealing works using physics and pressure • The difference between duct sealing and duct encapsulation • How precise sealing improves airflow and energy efficiency • How much leakage the system can realistically seal • Whether sealing ducts raises static pressure • Why responsible contractors think holistically before sealing • How tight buildings must be paired with mechanical ventilation • The ROI case for apartment complexes and commercial buildings • How duct sealing reduces callbacks and boosts customer satisfaction • How to turn efficiency upgrades into a competitive advantage Timestamps 00:00 How sealing ducts from the inside works 01:14 The physics behind internal duct sealing 04:22 How large of a leak can be sealed 06:08 Static pressure concerns and responsible installation 08:47 Why buildings must breathe mechanically 10:05 ROI for sealing apartment and commercial HVAC 12:28 Cure time and odor concerns 13:58 Water-based sealant and fire safety 16:03 Reducing callbacks and increasing customer satisfaction 17:29 Turning duct sealing into a competitive advantage Follow the Host and Guest Tersh Blissett: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tershblissett/ Josh Crouch: https://www.linkedin.com/in/josh-crouch/ Jarrod Scott: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jarrod-scott-06573835/ Aeroseal: https://www.aeroseal.com Connect with Us • LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/service-business-mastery • TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@servicebusinessmastery • Facebook Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/servicebusinessmasterypodcast • Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/servicebusinessmasterypodcast
