Seal the leaky window air conditioner gaps.

In Asthma Alley, the gap around a window air conditioner is a direct duct from the truck route to a child's bedroom, and in winter it leaks heat a rent-burdened family paid for. Foam panels and seal strip close it in under an hour per window.

Pay

$180 proposed

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

Before/after photos per sealed unit plus a count

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.

Steps

1. Confirm the occupant invitation and inspect each unit's side accordion panels and sash gaps.
2. Fit rigid foam panels into the side spaces and tape-seal the edges.
3. Seal the sash meeting gap with foam strip.
4. Verify no daylight shows around the unit from inside.
5. Photograph each sealed unit before and after with GPS and date.

What counts as done

• Before photo showing the gaps at each unit
• After photo of the sealed unit
• Count of units sealed with GPS and date

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.

The standard this serves

DIY Weatherization and Air Sealing. Air sealing is the cheapest energy work there is, and the Department of Energy has spent decades proving it: a tube of caulk and a roll of weatherstrip, placed where the cold actually comes in, beat almost any gadget you can buy. This standard keeps the work occupant-safe: no wiring, no combustion equipment, no disturbing old paint. Mastery looks like hands that can find a draft with a bare palm and close it for good. This packet is one home's worth of that: find the gaps, seal them, photograph the proof.
