Can a smoke air cleaner install into my building's attic crawl space?
Frequently Asked Questions About A Smoke Air Cleaner and Pur...Sometimes yes, sometimes no. It depends if there is space between ceiling joists. You need at least 24 inches opening between joists for the air cleaner. If you have adequate clearance, an attic crawlspace installation is similar to the drop ceiling scenario. Cut the appropriate sized hole in the ceiling material and finish the edges with the supplied trim. You'll need to use mounting hardware to support the weight of the unit from a suitable part of your building's framework. See similar questions...

I have a wild animal living in my attic, eaves, garage or shed. What can I do?
Wisconsin Humane Society - Common Urban Wildlife FAQsMost animals gain access through pre-existing holes in rotten wood or loose panels. An animal usually opts to take up residence in your attic or garage because it wants a dark, quiet, warm place where it can be undisturbed. Fortunately, it is relatively easy to convince the animal to relocate. If it is winter, we recommend leaving the animal alone until the season warms; it may have a hard time finding a new home.

If I install more insulation in my attic, what type should I use?
FAQ - Insulation and WeatherizationMost homeowners find it easiest to use batt insulation. Always use unfaced batts, as the paper of foil vapor retarder can trap water vapor in the original insulation, causing moisture problems. If possible, install the new insulation perpendicular to the attic floor joists to reduce heat loss through the joists. Loose fiberglass or cellulose can also be used, by pouring it and leveling it with a board or other implement. See similar questions...

Should I install No-Tear on the roof or the attic floor?
How to calculate rFoil reflective insulation and No-Tear rad...That's almost a judgement call on your part. If you live in a hot climate, the roof would be better. If you live in a cold climate, the attic floor would be better. But there are a couple of factors to consider. If you install No-Tear on the roof, you also need to cover the gable ends (that's the part that looks like a big triangle). If you live in a cold climate, installing it on the attic floor will also reduce winter heat loss (see "What if I can't get the best air gap?"). See similar questions...
In the attic, where is the best place to install radiant barrier?
Radiant Barrier Questions and AnswersOne problematic technique is to put radiant barrier directly on the underside of the roof sheeting. What happens in any attic that is not extremely well ventilated is that the surface of the radiant barrier gets very hot and the heat is conducted and convected into the air of the attic causing the attic and its insulation to get quite hot.

Is the Universe really infinite or just really big?
Frequently Asked Questions in CosmologyWe have observations that say that the radius of curvature of the Universe is bigger than 70 billion light years. But the observations allow for either a positive or negative curvature, and this range includes the flat Universe with infinite radius of curvature. The negatively curved space is also infinite in volume even though it is curved. So we know empirically that the volume of the Universe is more than 20 times bigger than volume of the observable Universe. See similar questions...
