The house is &#8217;90s construction in Northern California, located about 10 miles from the coast. I have lots of condensation on some of the older (original dual-pane) windows on the west and north sides of the house during the winter months. If I don\u2019t mop it up every day, it pools and has caused some surface mold. I originally thought it was just the windows that were old and needed replacing. However, I looked at the problem in some more detail. Relative humidity is between 45% and 65+% through the year; I think being close to the coast and having misty mornings is contributing. I purchased a standalone 50-pint dehumidifier that runs 24 hours a day and has 100% stopped the condensation and brought the RH down. There are close-fitting honeycomb shades on all of the windows, which has not helped the condensation issue. The crawlspace does not have a vapor barrier, but luckily the house is on the top of a hill so water drains away very well. Originally, I was going to replace 5+ windows, but now I thinking there is a better plan:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Windows: Don\u2019t replace now<\/li>\n<li>Crawlspace: Install vapor barrier<\/li>\n<li>Install a whole-house dehumidifier<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I welcome any thoughts on this.

I&#8217;ve learned so much from the podcast. One valuable tip I have learned from the show is to call the support line to ask questions. I recently finished renovating a bathroom. I wasn&#8217;t sure how to handle the new shower connection to the old cast-iron drain line. So, I called the Schluter support line, and the very kind customer service rep helped me find an even better solution.<\/p>\n<p>Second, my question. The air handler and furnace are in the attic of my 75-year-old house in Savannah, Georgia, with a hot and humid climate zone. The ducts to the bedrooms have a short run to registers at the top of the bedroom walls. The ducts to the living room, kitchen, and dining room run down to the crawlspace then out to the rooms with registers on the floors. I had the attic spray-foamed two years ago so the air handler and attic ducts would be in conditioned space, which has helped a lot, especially in the summer. In the winter, the bedrooms get very warm, but the living room, dining room, and kitchen are almost 10 degrees cooler thanks to the long duct run through the unconditioned crawlspace. I&#8217;m thinking of running new ducts to the living room, dining room, and kitchen through the attic. These ducts would be in conditioned space and have shorter lengths, and, I expect, less of a temperature loss from the bedrooms. My question is about the registers. Is there any reason I should not put the registers in the ceiling or high up on the walls other than aesthetics? It would also be nice to put furniture anywhere without blocking a vent and to never fish another Lego or kids toy out of a floor duct, but there could be a building science factor to consider on unintended consequence to avoid.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks for any advice.<\/p>\n<p>Tricia<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related Links:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.finehomebuilding.com\/2022\/11\/18\/8-strategies-for-effective-ductwork\"><strong>8 Strategies for Effective Ductwork<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.finehomebuilding.com\/2021\/07\/12\/back-to-the-attic\"><strong>Building Codes for Insulation and HVAC in Attics<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.finehomebuilding.com\/project-guides\/energy-retrofit\/ducting-hrvs-and-ervs\"><strong>Ducting HRVs and ERVs<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div align=\"center\">\n<hr width=\"75%\" \/>\n<\/div>\n<h3>Question 4: Does a heat-pump water heater retrofit make sense for Chicago?<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Zeo Geo writes on GBA (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenbuildingadvisor.com\/question\/heat-pump-water-heater-in-a-chicago-townhome\">Heat pump water heater in a Chicago townhome<\/a>):<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We live in Chicago in a four-story townhome. Our top floor is a small bedroom that has a louvered-door utility closet with a gas furnace and gas water heater.<\/p>\n<p>The gas water heater is showing its age and probably needs to be replaced soon. I\u2019d like to put in a heat-pump water heater instead of replacing it with another gas heater. I had one company come out to give a quote, and the estimator basically told me a heat-pump water heater doesn\u2019t make sense in Chicago, full stop.<\/p>\n<p>Everything I\u2019ve read about heat-pump water heaters says you should put them in a room with excess heat. Our top floor definitely fits that description due to stack effect, especially in the summer. That location actually seems to me like an ideal place for a heat-pump water heater. I would love to hear your opinions on whether I\u2019m thinking about this the right way.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, and one more thing: If a heat-pump water heater does makes sense, should we vent it to the outside? I\u2019m thinking we shouldn&#8217;t, since we\u2019d likely have to change damper configurations with the seasons (which I very well may forget to do), and I\u2019d like to avoid as many wall penetrations as possible.<\/p>\n<p>Looking forward to hearing your thoughts!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related Links:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.finehomebuilding.com\/2024\/03\/06\/furnace-to-heat-pump-retrofit\"><strong>Furnace to Heat Pump Retrofit<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.finehomebuilding.com\/project-guides\/energy-retrofit\/air-to-water-heat-pump-retrofit\"><strong>Air-to-Water Heat Pump Retrofit<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.finehomebuilding.com\/project-guides\/energy-retrofit\/webinar-heat-pumps-and-cold-climate-applications-designing-for-comfort-and-resiliency\"><strong>Heat Pumps and Cold-Climate Applications: Designing for Comfort and Resiliency<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div align=\"center\">\n<hr width=\"75%\" \/>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>This episode of The Fine Homebuilding Podcast is brought to you by TiteGrab Plus Construction Adhesive<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/Titebond.com\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-405915 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/images.finehomebuilding.com\/app\/uploads\/2019\/08\/21130426\/summit-titebond-logo.jpg\" alt=\"Titebond\" width=\"300\" height=\"170\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nYou may know them for their wood glues, but did you know Titebond also has a complete selection of construction adhesives?
