Weatherization TV

What a novel idea! Weatherization TV! A weekly television show on Weatherization from the clever people at the Montana Weatherization Training Center. This is helpful for everyone, not just contractors learning the process. It's nice to know just what happens in the various Weatherization components like insulating, duct sealing, testing furnaces and more. It also demonstrates the safety steps that are taken by the Weatherization crew members.

So, take a look! Most of the shows are brief but if you are in the mood for extended watching, just make sure the popcorn is at the ready.
