#739: Igloos, Detailing Masonry Bump-Outs, and Oddly-Framed Walls

Vince says we spent a lot of time not answering his question. David thinks it has been too long since FHB covered igloos. Steve wonders how to insulate and air-seal the bump-out breakfast nook that's showing signs of water entry. Grant was shocked to learn a current project is framed without studs.

• Controlling humidity for comfort without window condensation
• Where is the water coming from above a bump-out in a masonry wall
• Are old walls built without studs common or safe?
