The Fiberglass Insulation is Drenched Old Dutch Farms

The fiberglass insulation is drenched, dirty and has garbage mixed in it.

The contractor who came on 1/17 showed me several patch repairs and opened one, that was drooping severely, revealing wet insulation, dirt and a disposable cup. This might explain the phantom water puddles I've written to you about in the home, with no visible leak coming from the ceilings. 

The flexible dryer exhaust vent line being used to circulate heat cannot withstand the weight, therefore restricting heat flow throughout the home.

The front and back doors still have large gaps that allow air flow. The front screen door is still hard to close and sticks, both screen doors pop open even if locked. Backdoor may be letting in water, but I can't be sure if it's the door gap or furnace closet. 

There haven't been any water bill changes. This water is from the outside elements and breaching this home (hopefully not connecting up with any electrical wiring if coming from above and down the walls).

The wall panel is broken by the front door (which still has a gap). It made a loud noise and popped, which prompted the call to City Inspectors. There's also building material in the flexible dryer exhaust vent lines. 

The forecast this week calls for rain and temperatures as low as 25 degrees. 

The contractor Thursday, said he had a panel and could have a crew out here to get all of it fixed.

Please email me and let me know when they are coming.

Here is video of water running out of the underbelly insulation. As you can see that is slot of water and it freezes and I'm living on giant ice cube!!
