Put doors in knee walls for storage.

This is definitely something, but it ain’t it.. 😢

Make sure that at least one of the windows when opened allow 5.2 Square feet of opening space, also the window sill cannot be higher than 42 inches from the floor. Finally for the room to be considered an actual bedroom on a real estate listing it must have a closet. Otherwise it is just a bonus room or office space.

Just found out in Texas if you dont have a window and a closet, it is not considered a bedroom. It is an extra room and can effect the resale of the home since you can not count it as such by a margin of 10 to 20k, depending on your area.

really good points of view for showing your perfect work and a lot of skills for this. About the chimney, on my area your are completely illegal for dont have a gap of 10cm all around the exterior of the bricks where you can't add any type of flammable material like wood or others. the void on the floor and roof is filled with concrete and use rockwool-like insulation too.

Nice videos...Where did you get that insulation board from? What part of the country are you in?

Nice work

Definitely looks professional..I’m a service technician and have seen some “professional” duct that didn’t look that good.

Ngl it was an easy one but seems like you struggled a bit 😩 and let’s not talk about the duct sizing.

great video, gives me some ideas for my cabin. When it comes to the chimney, here in Norway, regulations say at least two sides of it has to be free/open for inspection purposes. So we can't frame them in like you are doing here.

Closet not needed but a biult-in dresser and a side set where you can hang nice cloths is nice.

really professional video man, going to watch the rest of them while I'm working tomorrow. I have to replace the haphazard knee walls in my own attic and am going to steal that technique for angle ripping the top plates. I like your idea of actually supporting some of the roof with the knee walls (belt and suspenders). My house was built in 1906, and the rafters sit on top of a double-3/4" board, which then sits on the attic floor joists. And then I guess the knee wall (unintentionally) might transfer *some* of the roof load, but the top plat for the current knee wall is literally just a floorboard and the knee wall studs are not directly underneath the rafters. Crazy how things were built "back then", so I'm doing everything I can to make it last another 125 years

People usually change clothes in a bedroom, and so they want a place to put their clothes, and a closet is a popular option for that, therefore bedrooms do need closets. Normally you'd want to hang the clothes, but those closets are too short for that, so you might want an armoire up there if it fits. Alternatively, a chest of drawers and just fold your clothes. Thinking about the chest of drawers, it occurred to me that you could fill some of that closet space with custom built in drawers instead. That might be cool. The whole room is cool though, and I think it's going to turn out really nice.

Talking and music never works. Rather have no music at all.

Looks Great! Definitely a some great craftsmanship. A few major flaws on the duct design and the way you attached the coil to the furnace. First off is the RA , not good to blank it off like that especially with AC involved. Next the way you attached the coil to the furnace would be better if you had made yourself one of those nice transitions. The supply looks pretty good, hopefully for your sake you did the numbers . Ductulaters help

Did you read the instructions dude? There's a big section in there about horizontal left and right installations about required transitions when evaporator width is larger than furnace. Be careful with putting ducts directly on to end caps, bad balance and static issues, velocity and static are not the same thing however they affect each other. Trunks lines you would want to come out of the sides of trunk, the 8" side.

25 year hvac guy here. Does look good for not being a pro, but looks arent everything. you should NEVER blank off return of unit. they are sized that way for a reason. and then putting a 14" flex only is no good. not only will furnace sound like a freight train but it will screw up static pressure of ducting and likely shorten the life of the system. should have a 16" or better yet 18" and 24x30 return intake. not sure where youre located but here in La. with our high humidity, heat exchanger would rust prematurely and compressor would likely have a short and miserable life

Put a nail plate and be done

It’s simple and makes sense, but I’ve never had a reason to think about pipe protection like that so I feel like I learned something today, hell yea brother

14” return isn’t very big. Not sure what your tunnage is. Hopefully with the one for the bonus room you’ll have enough return. Your work is excellent though. I’d hire you for sure!

Once again making it look easy! We need an outtakes compilation lol

You did a good job but one question I have is your duct work sized to the size of your equipment.this is an important step as the static pressure is right. Been doing HVAC/Sheetmetal mechanic for almost 40 years.instead of buying your duct work at the supply house you can go to a Sheetmetal shop with a list and they can make it for you.

I would tighten those zip ties with some linesmens and tape those flex connection or mastic them if your not going to use a gun….you don’t want any air leakage may cause condensation

Please be careful! You are encouraging me to do my own ducting!

Awesome work! keep it up and your channel is going to blow up man! - Can i ask how you were able to determine what size unit / air handler you needed and what size and type ducts?

What gauge (26?) galvanized sheets are you using and how much were they for looks like 4x8 stock?

We either have a conversation, or we listen to music. At no point are both going to occur at the same time.

oh boy...

music is so loud i can barely hear you, other than that you did a great job

Really great videos man! I think you'll do quite well as a KZfaqr - keep plugging along! Well done from 🇨🇦!

wow jjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjiioiiiiiiiiooiijjuu

We use steel coat hangers in Canada 😊

Comrades what is this Russia

screw?

I like that!

Nice hack 👍

That is actually pretty friggin genius lol

Smart

We use these for roofing gable cornices and hard to get to spots.

I use the Bosch foam jigsaw blade to cut this kinda stuff, it works out great. Also how are you addressing the thermal bridging on the rafters that aren’t covered in insulation?

I guess no need for a header above attic window. Then maybe a double 2x to support the ridge. No collar ties required? Over all I say top shelf work

Buddy is making picasso’s with that sawzall 🫡

What’s wrong with Wagos?

Solid work bro! Thanks for taking the time to document the process. Inspiring for fellow investors & DIY’ers.

Doing good man keep up the good work ✌️💪

Pathetic

Just make it a future problem for the home owner.If you're gonna put a wedge in a stud.That's a non load bearing wall.My suggestion would be the widget properly

What ever you do don't do it right

Oh this is entertaining watching a stud building a stud😂💀👌👌

I know home inspectors that would give you an F for doing that and make you redo it.
