Another vote for fiber. I ran cat6 in my house (when the electricians had the walls open) just 3 years ago and I already wish I'd run fiber instead.

Not an HVAC guy but I'm confused by your house, you have a basement and a crawlspace? Are they connected somehow? If the puddles in the crawlspace could be seeping into the basement then I'd say yes. Basements are known for being damp though, has there been a ton of rain?

Also your HVAC guy was really a jackass if he directed the condensation line into your crawlspace.

In the short term, fix the condensation line and maybe get a dehumidifier going in the basement. Those boxes will get moldy fast.

New text on website: "The Slate is rear-wheel drive and projected to have around a 1,550 lb payload and 2,000 lb towing capacity."

I have not studied them enough but my soffits could really use improved venting too. This will probably be my next step. I think poor circulation is why my attic gets so hot. My roof will need replacing in a year or two, I may replace my insulation with spray foam then.

I'm gathering data about the temperature difference in the attic now vs before my crazy pipe vent. I'll post it when I've got a couple of weeks worth.
