Warm, dry, affordable to run: healthy-home assessment.

A Cleveland two-family's owner-occupant faces high winter utility bills, an aging furnace, and uneven heat between units, and needs to know what to fix in what order before spending renovation money. This packet is the claim of a warmer, healthier, cheaper-to-run home: a whole-home assessment and a prioritized plan that sequences moisture, combustion safety, and envelope work, routing furnace and electrical decisions to licensed pros.

This packet is not funded yet, so this figure is a proposed price and not money waiting in escrow. If a buyer funds it, approved proof settles that price onchain. If nobody funds it, approved proof earns provable credit toward the work instead of cash — recorded, and readable any time at vealth.net/labor/credit/(your wallet). You see which before you claim, never after.

Proof

photo walkthrough + GPS + spot readings (CO/CO2/PM2.5/moisture) + the family's top-three outcomes + the ranked petal-mapped renovation plan: Real, Proven, One-of-one

This is exactly what gets it approved. Nothing settles without it.

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.

Bring

• camera
• low-cost air monitor (CO, CO2, PM2.5), spot screening readings, not certification
• pin/pinless moisture meter
• tape measure + flashlight (attic/crawl/basement)
• tablet/clipboard with the LBC-petal healthy-home checklist
• thermal/IR camera (optional, envelope scope)

Steps

1. 1. Sit with the household first: what do they want the home to BE (warmer, drier, easier to breathe in, cheaper to run, safe for a parent aging in place)? Record their top three outcomes in their own words, the plan is ranked against these, not against a generic checklist.
2. 2. Walk every room plus attic/crawl/basement against the HUD/CDC healthy-home principles (dry, clean, ventilated, safe, contaminant-free, pest-free, warm/cool, maintained), photographing conditions: moisture/mold signs, visible insulation, window/door condition, combustion appliances, obvious electrical hazards, pre-1978 paint condition.
3. 3. Take spot readings where equipment allows: CO near each combustion appliance, CO2/PM2.5 in the main living and sleeping areas, moisture-meter readings at any suspect wall/ceiling; record values, timestamps, and locations (screening data, not certification).
4. 4. Map each finding to an LBC petal (Health & Happiness, air/light/comfort; Energy: envelope/heating; Materials: suspect lead/asbestos/red-list; Water: leaks/moisture/fixtures; Equity: accessibility) and tag whether addressing it is DIY-safe, handy-level, or licensed-pro-only.
5. 5. Build the prioritized renovation plan: rank items by (a) the family's named outcomes, (b) health impact, (c) sequence dependencies (dry it before you insulate it; assess combustion before you air-seal); give each item a rough cost band and name the right licensed-pro category for regulated work.
6. 6. Review the plan WITH the household so they own it; enter photos, GPS/address, spot readings, the petal-mapped findings, and the ranked plan; sign. The family's claim of a healthier home = this plan + this evidence, Real (walked and measured), Proven (photo+GPS+signature), One-of-one (this home, this family).

What counts as done

• Household's top-three desired outcomes recorded in their own words
• Room-by-room photo walkthrough incl. attic/crawl/basement against the healthy-home principles
• Spot readings (CO at combustion appliances, CO2/PM2.5 in living/sleeping areas, moisture at suspect spots) with locations + timestamps
• GPS / address confirm
• Prioritized renovation plan: petal-mapped, sequenced, cost-banded, licensed-pro category named on every regulated item

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
