Full then below it finished basement One residency program in a major university featured a modern morgue facility several flights up, with windows looking out on a pine forest My basement has taken water a week or so ago
While most of the water is gone, it is still humid, but cool down in the basement
Purchased an italianate brownstone style home with vinyl siding at the bottom of a hill
Simply put, is it possible to design a dehumidifier that does not also generate a lot of heat I’ve got a basement that is nice and cool in the summertime, and it’s therefore a great place to escape the heat (my house does not have ac) But the basement will get too damp unless i run my dehumidifier, which has an unfortunate side effect of blasting out air that is between 10 and 20 degrees. I saw an apartment i liked today, scoped out the neighborhood, and was planning on putting in my application tomorrow morning
However, when i mentioned to my friend that it’s a basement apartment, his response was “watch out for moisture problems.” i did some searching and found that a lot of basement apartment dwellers have problems with mold, mildew, and bugs I needed a water spigot in my backyard I didn’t want to dig down and drill through my concrete foundation wall and connect under the house (crawlspace instead of basement) Instead i trenched from the front yard to the back
Connected to the water pipe a few feet from my inground water meter (its in the front yard).
Had an appraisal done in order to refinance my mortgage and the appraiser refused to count the bathroom in my basement The bathroom is fully enclosed I'm doing a little work on my basement and have noticed that the space inside of the blocks used for the walls are open and not covered by the joists. Any idea on cost to convert an existing bilco basement door entry to an egress walkout type of entry?
Ours is in the basement, door unmarked (either to avoid upsetting or invoking the curiosity of passersby) Most times that or the ground floor in an inconspicuous location is where the morgue will be, though there are exceptions
