comment I added insulation to my attic rafters, but should I have left room for airflow?
any attic room that is finished should have these installed. Housed like cape cods and finished rooms above garages usually have the sloped ceilings, and would need baffles.

comment Are tankless water heaters worth it in cold climates?
so for well water that is coming up 250' and is always a constant temperature, you can easily calculate this. Cool.

comment How is a septic system different from a cesspool?
In addition, a lot of people have aeration systems. They are kinda a hybrid between the two. The wate collects, and three is a little motor that spins a blade or turbine in the tank to help breakdown the waste faster. There are several tanks that the stuffs flows to like a traditional septic, but rather than a leech field, the output is far clearner and safe to drain to a creek or stream. These are required in our area if you live near a body of water, as the leech fields do use the ground to fully "clean" the output.
