Matt Risinger takes you inside a 1939 home remodel to reveal why proper air sealing is critical when preserving original facades like brick and shiplap. After opening up the walls, he uncovers major air leakage that could lead to moisture and condensation issues if left untreated. Matt walks through a practical solution using Prosoco’s Targeted Interior Air Seal, demonstrating how to seal gaps efficiently with both a bulk gun and sprayer. From retrofit challenges with older materials to real-world job site examples, this episode highlights how to protect both the home and its occupants by getting air sealing right during a remodel.
