Basic Building Science for Homes: Testing is the Cornerstone (from Home Diagnosis)

In our practice of diagnostics, inspections, computer modeling, load calculations, and verifying that healthy home targets have been achieved, we use a very simple approach, and here it is. From season 2 of Home Diagnosis: https://HomeDiagnosis.tv

Ventilation, Diagnostics, and DET Verifier Training Break Down

Done with our first 4-day training at our Atlanta home- save a spot in the next one! This time we had people travel all the way from New York and Texas- remember, we’re 5 minutes from the busiest airport in the world, and this is a state-of-the-art training center. You’ll be happy you made the time for the trip!

2 Years Later: is #TinyLab Still the Highest Performance Tiny House on Wheels?

Grace and Corbett built the world's highest performance tiny house on wheels in 2016. It was perfect. Then they toured it 13,000 miles across America and let 7,000 people come inside to feel, hear, and smell what perfectly tuned home performance is like.

What's the house performing like now, after all that torture? And under 2 inches of snow in Atlanta, Georgia? See for yourself in this 20-minute tour, complete with testing, demonstrations, and metrics that show Proof Is Possible, even for people who have never built a house before. The #TinyLab is still the undisputed most scientifically superior home performance demonstration in the world, and we sincerely hope others start challenging our work!

Giving Back with Home Performance: Temporary Housing for Homeless Women & Children

Corbett sits down with Kathy Swahn, award-winning director of The Drake House, which provides temporary housing for homeless women and children in Atlanta. Reportedly, the average age for homeless people in Atlanta is 9 years old- whoa.
