Denver Winter Weather Warning

Your foundation, basement and crawlspaces are at risk due to standing snow and extreme
Freeze-Thaw Cycles.
Here’s Why!
The freeze-thaw cycle, also known as frost heave, is created when water freezes and thaws, expanding and contracting within structures. When water drops below 32°F, it expands by 9%, creating pressure on anything surrounding it.
When water seeps into cracks or other openings in structures, then freezes and expands, it causes those openings to widen, causing damage. Over time, the wider openings lead to more water finding its way into structures, resulting in a slow but exponential wearing down of their integrity and stability. Water can and will intrude into your home. We are having extreme temperature swings this winter. Please note: melting snow and ground water intrusion are not covered by your homeowner’s insurance. You need to catch this potential issue early before it because a disaster.
Water Intrusion

The freeze-thaw cycle can affect many home structures, including gutters, utility lines, foundations, walls, and soil. Freeze-thaw cycles often occur during the winter, when freezing temperatures give way to warmer temperatures, melting the snow temporarily, only to freeze over again once the wave fades. The faster this temperature adjustment occurs, the more intense the cycle is, causing more severe structural damage.
Signs Of Water Seepage
Water seepage into your home’s foundation is usually fairly easy to spot. Be on the lookout for things that indicate moisture:
- A musty smell
- High humidity level
- Mold on the walls
- Paint that’s peeling or bubbling
- Wall stains
- Rust on items stored in the basement
- Water on the basement floor

A weird smell in a home or office can come from numerous sources, including appliances, furniture, carpets, fabrics or issues like mold from water damage. Occasionally, odors may be caused by sewer gas, natural gas leaks or animals that have died between walls, in attics. A serious issue you can't smell is Carbon Monoxide, from gas stoves

Occasionally, odors may be caused by sewer gas, natural gas leaks or animals that have died between walls, in attics. A serious issue you can't smell is Carbon Monoxide, from gas stoves and fireplaces and water heaters and furnaces.

Carbon Monoxide Leaks
Low level carbon monoxide testing
During winter months when people are more inside, homeowners and employees have headaches, fatigue, dizziness, nausea and memory loss. The first thing that I test for is low level carbon monoxide poisoning. Typically the carbon monoxide detector on your ceiling or wall at home or in your business has a limit of detection or the amount of carbon monoxide needed to sound the alarm set at 70 parts per million (ppm) after 60 minutes. My meter can test down to .01 PPM. We see a serious problem when carbon monoxide is present in the home or business but is below the limit of detection for the alarm to sound. Low levels of carbon monoxide at 2 or even 3 parts per million may cause the headaches, fatigue, dizziness, nausea and memory loss .
Exposure to low Level carbon monoxide
Carbon Monoxide (CO) is the #1 cause of poisonings in the U.S. Yet less than 5% of all CO poisonings are reported! The safe and efficient operation of your heating equipment and other combustion appliances cannot be determined without testing using a calibrated combustion analyzer. Because the technology, instruments, and training to do this testing correctly has only been available for a few years, odds are it’s never been done. Your service technician should be certified to properly test and diagnose potential CO exposure.
It’s About Your Health and Safety Carbon monoxide, even in small quantities, can cause serious health problems, particularly in children and the elderly. Millions of unsuspecting homeowners are exposed to low levels of CO and don’t even know it. Unfortunately U.L.-Listed CO alarms don’t go off until your family has been exposed to 70 ppm (parts per million) for over 3-1/2 hours! Most international limits for unsafe levels, including OSHA and the World Health Organization’s guidelines, are between at 15-35 ppm. Carbon monoxide can come from additional sources in your home besides the heating equipment, and those sources should also be checked. They include your Water Heater, Gas Range, Gas Logs, Space Heater, and Boiler — even an attached garage.
Even New Equipment Needs to Be Tested Anytime equipment is installed, it’s being exposed to conditions in which it hasn’t been tested to perform. Venting systems, combustion air, duct systems, additional appliances in the building, building pressure etc., can all affect its operation. Besides that, after leaving the factory, it’s likely your equipment has been loaded and unloaded on trucks and transported several times. Vibration and shock can cause components to shift and move. The only way to truly know if your new equipment is operating safely and efficiently is to test it once it’s been installed.
