Home Diagnosis
Home performance experts Grace and Corbett Lunsford utilize cutting edge diagnostic testing and methods to help solve mysterious issues in homes of all ages across America. Explore the science of homes with us. You will be glad you did.
Form vs. Function
Every home starts out as an idea. Join the Lunsfords as they conceptualize and plan to build a dream home for their family using cutting edge computer software and their profound knowledge base that emphasizes process before product.
Big Picture
One way the Lunsfords aim to change your relationship with your home is by giving you new language you may use to describe what you want from your home. Whether you are building, buying, or improving a home, you can ask for performance.
Destruction
Explore the subtle science behind how water, in all its forms, interacts with every home in both healthy and unhealthy ways, and learn how new and current homeowners can mitigate such challenges with conscientious, educated preparation.
The Truth About Home Building
A certain level of distrust exists in the home building business between the homeowners and general contractors, a distrust that swings both ways. Take a step back and look at the culture of the home improvement and construction industry.
This Little Light of Mine
When designing a new home, the placement and type of windows you choose will have significant impact on the amount of natural light that enters your home, and the overall state of your home's ambient comfort level. Choose wisely.
Windbreakers
The quality of a home's enclosure plays a major role in a home's overall performance. Factor in proper air sealant measures and insulation, and Grace and Corbett will tell you that as the builder of a new home, you are on the right path.
Slow Burn
Fire and chemicals are wild, elemental variables that require careful consideration within our home environments. The myriad systems, appliances, and products we use add to our home's indoor chemistry in ways we need to pay attention to.
Keeping the Cold at Bay
Heat can circulate within our homes in three ways: conductively, convectively, and radiationally. Using this rationale, Grace and Corbett reveal the ways we all can fine-tune our home heating systems to provide the cozy comfort we seek.
Opening the Ice Box
Moisture affects virtually every aspect of our home's environment, particularly the air quality. Grace and Corbett explore the complexities of regulating the moisture in our homes to help prevent unwanted variables from gaining a foothold.
The Headaches of HOMEchem
A vast number of molecules inhabit our homes that affect the makeup of our home's chemistry. Indoor chemistry is fundamentally different than outdoor chemistry, and the actions we perform within our homes all have measurable side effects.
Healing Your HOMEchem
Controlled ventilation is of paramount importance in regulating our home's chemical and microbiological makeup. Grace and Corbett enlighten us as to the unique ways we can identify, prevent, and cure the HOMEchem headaches that can exist.
Universes Battery
Light affects our homes in a variety of ways, including its tendency to cause spontaneous photochemical reactions to take place. Therefore, the Lunsfords believe that factoring light into the calculus of building a home is a top priority.
Proof
To maintain control of your home, the Lunsfords firmly believe in the value of testing the unique interactions between heat bleed, air flow and pressure, moisture, and air quality in your home to maximize your family's health and comfort.
