Evening at Emory Personal Enrichment and Lifestyle
 
How Homes Work

Get a clear look at what needs to be done first in your home and avoid spending money where it really isn’t needed. One of the hardest tasks for a non-professional is balancing your budget for upgrades against unexpected big ticket problems. How can you identify potential defects and anticipate future problems? How does Atlanta’s mixed-humid climate affect building materials and systems? How do pests get in the house? How do you control termites, wood rot, and moisture? How do you improve ventilation, air quality, and reduce energy costs? After learning the basics of how homes work in metro Atlanta you’ll be better prepared to buy, sell, maintain, or improve your home. Your instructor has over 20 years of experience in metro Atlanta.
