Dean discusses the recent building boom in ADU units and the pros and cons of them, along with the rules in California that need to be followed in order to build a legal ADU.   Dean tackled ADU related questions from listeners regarding the state of California mandates regarding ADUs when it comes to original builds and pre-fab versions, how to connect pre-fab versions to existing utilities in the main home, information regarding permitting when it comes to these kinds of builds along with a listener question about a 1950 mid-century home without insulation and whether a spray insulation would be a better option vs traditional batt insulation and whether or not a fresh air intake for an HVAC system should be drawing air from outside the home.
