Got a quote for $2500 to reinsulate all the ductwork. Never heard back from other company. However this new quote is from a fella that doesn’t speak the best English. Will be sure to inspect his work as he goes.


Hell, it’ll probably be a great job done up there. Seems like some of the sweating has slowed on my issue. We’ll see if we can delay work on it until it’s a little cooler.

Ducts re-insulated. Guys did a good job. Not sure if it’s real or not, but air coming out feels cooler to me. Took them two full days and I feel like they earned their $2500. I priced material at $1,200 so two days for three guys in my attic for $1,300 is it worth it to me.

It's usually a float valve that caps it off if I'm reading this correctly. If it backs up with water it should shite the unit off. Also acts as a cap.

PVC drain line had cold air blowing out of the top of the pipe you pour bleach in. Should that be capped normally?
no, that’s a vent for the p trap on the drain line. Is your evaporator coil clean?
