vancouver: Should Homes In the Pacific Northwest (OR/WA) on the West Side of the Mountains Use Foundation Vent Foam Blocks? - 01/04/12 03:02 PM
No.
Not at all, generally speaking...
It is quite common for me to go to homes where foundation vent blocks are being used. Sometimes these blocks are actually "flaps" which are built in to the vent screen framing, and others are Styrofoam blocks that people found at Home Depot. Other people block their foundation vents with towels, wood, or bury them entirely (which is kind of another issue).

vancouver: Did You Know that Radon Can Damage Your DNA? Causes Genetic Damage? - 01/02/12 12:59 AM
Most of the epithelial cellular damage is not caused by breathing in radon gas itself, which is removed from the lungs during exhalation, but by radon's short-lived decay products (half-life measured in minutes or less). When inhaled, these decay products may be deposited in the airways of the lungs. The RDPs subsequently emit alpha particles as they decay further. The total amount of energy emitted by the progeny is several hundred times that produced in the initial decay of radon. The increased risk of lung cancer from radon results primarily from these alpha particles irradiating lung tissue. When an alpha particle passes through a cell's nucleus, … (0 comments)

vancouver: Did you Know? - 08/31/11 07:02 PM
Washington State Home Inspectors are not required to carry any insurance or bond to perform home inspection services. While the State licenses home inspectors, this license comes with no bond or insurance requirements. It is extremely important, then, for consumers to hire a home inspector who has insurance and a bond, and the only way to determine whether they have it is to be sure to ask. Simply asking whether the inspector is licensed isn't enough. Specifically, you should want your inspector to carry a bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance. Ideally, they would carry Liability Insurance as well.
