Reposting with diagram, please help with geometry?
Could add horror story of buying small 70 year old ranch inspector viewed, thermopane windows, cold walls, and 1 winter later feel certain that the vinly job did nothing to help at allI have been told the house has wood planks over the 2x4 walls and no insulation insideThey took off the aluminum siding when they installed the styrofoam/vinyl I was thinking of maybe a foam injection but not now So do most of these vinyl jobs fail to insulate? What is the problemHave lived winter in house and can tell that house cannot be heated in below zero weatherHeat just goes straight out thru walls, have insulation in attic but unknown if rafter vents in placeRight now 4 inch thick over foot wide slabs of ice on eaves letting loose crashing to ground shaking basement adding insult to injury, this house passed thru 3 hands before arriving at mine with no disclosure of the problems, the last owner that sold to me bought at forclosure and sold to me 100% profitI expected what I saw, modernized small ranch reeking with conservatismAnd the entire town knew.
You need to find the hypotenuse (sp?) of the triangles: c? a? + b? c? (6.5)? + (24 2/3)? c sqrt((6.5)? + (24 2/3)?) So, the total tubing is 2c + 2(24 2/3) + 6.5 And the area of the triangles is 1/2baseheight a 1/2 (24 2/3) 6.5 You need two triangle areas for the screenDoes this help?
you have a wood frame house with vinyl siding and want me to believe it is relatively airtight.NOThave built to many homes to believe that .but they might have done a poor job, the only way i can think of,, if they did a poor job without drilling more holes in the walls is, to have someone with a infrared camera have a look at your house and see where the problem is .are the floors wood? above the ground ,,if so maybe the floor is not insulated.some times to get the job people bid low to get the job then short change the customer to make more of a profiteach section of the wall has to have 2 holes drilled in it between each studs to get the insulation above and below the fire break.and people wonder why their business fail
