00:11 Good morning is here and last week Brad talked with 20-year home improvement and lifestyle
00:17 expert Katherine Emery who's sharing four projects to refresh our homes.
00:24 Good morning Katherine, how are you?
00:27 So, happy official spring by the way.
00:30 Yes, it is official and you know what that means?
00:32 That means taking care of our homes, getting them ready for opening up the doors, people
00:38 getting outside, doing things.
00:41 But the big part is, is our air filters.
00:44 It's a perfect time to make sure we're getting clean air circulating through the house, am
00:48 I right?
00:50 It's music to my ears my friend.
00:52 So we're all busy cleaning, right?
00:54 What happens to all those dust and particles that goes into the air?
00:57 We need to change our air filters every three to six months.
01:00 I am so excited to introduce K&N.
01:03 They have got into the home air filtration system now.
01:06 What if I told you this was washable and reusable and is going to last you 10 years?
01:11 You heard me correctly.
01:13 Look at how easy it is.
01:14 So you'd simply take the air filter out of your HVAC unit, you rinse it off, you shake
01:19 off the excess water, pop it back in.
01:21 By the time the segment's done Brad, we could have cleaned our air filter.
01:25 I love how sturdy and efficient these are though.
01:28 The frame, the mesh, guess what?
01:31 It's going to provide superior air flow.
01:33 In fact, 70% better than those disposable at trapping dust, pollen, smoke particles,
01:40 bacteria, pet dander.
01:42 Because look at how durable these are.
01:44 So you're not having to go to the store.
01:45 This is going to last you a decade.
01:47 Pretty much the life of your HVAC system.
01:51 But you might know K&N because they're in the automotive space for 50 years.
01:56 Thank goodness they've made it over to the home space, right?
01:59 Yes, I'm on my way right now to get one of those.
02:02 I'm totally...
02:03 Right?
02:04 Amazing.
02:05 It's so cool.
02:06 Okay, big problem I'm having right now is that my services are looking so dull.
02:09 So how can I bring them back to life?
02:11 All right, it's spring project time.
02:13 The vanities, the cabinets, the countertops.
02:16 What if I told you that you can actually refresh them all with paint?
02:20 You heard me right.
02:21 So this is beyond paint.
02:24 This is an all-in-one water-based project paint.
02:28 No stripping, sanding, or priming required.
02:30 So it is super easy to apply, Brad, because it's formulated to bond to most surfaces.
02:36 It is a bonder, primer, and sealer all-in-one.
02:39 Indoor projects, you can see they're outdoor projects.
02:41 Go to Lowe's.
02:42 Go to lowes.com.
02:44 See it for yourself.
02:45 You're going to end up saving thousands of dollars on costly renovations.
02:48 I mean, think about cabinets, how much that costs.
02:50 You can update them with just simple paint.
02:52 Isn't this a genius product?
02:54 I love it.
02:55 I love it.
02:56 That's good.
02:57 All right, we got to move to outdoors because literally when I left the house today, I looked
03:00 over at my RV and I saw weeds.
03:03 And I'm like, people must think that my RV doesn't move, but it does.
03:06 So what about outdoor taking care of the weeds?
03:10 You know what?
03:11 And you don't want to get down on your hands and knees or use those different devices,
03:14 right?
03:15 So I have a way you're going to get it done in a day, in fact, probably an hour.
03:19 So this is called Spectracide OneShot.
03:22 I'm going to let you know how it is going to enhance your life.
03:25 Number one, it's one application.
03:28 It is going to kill those weeds.
03:30 It is going to prevent those weeds for up to five months.
03:33 So the whole season and beyond, superior to the competition out there.
03:38 It's fast acting as we can see.
03:40 It kills the roots.
03:41 I love that it's rainproof within an hour.
03:43 So matter if you go out and do the project, it's going to get it done.
03:46 But I just love how easy it is.
03:48 Simple to apply, gets the job done.
03:51 You don't have to think about it.
03:52 So go, you got to get some of this, make sure that walkway and driveway are looking beautiful,
03:57 my friend.
03:58 There you go.
03:59 You just answered the question.
04:00 I was wondering what, so it's going to look good.
04:01 Okay.
04:02 It will.
04:03 As we're talking, of course, outdoors, our backyards, we want to enhance them.
04:06 We want to make them look good.
04:07 What tips do you have for us?
04:08 All right.
04:09 It's time to really build that dream deck you've always wanted.
04:12 You've got to go composite.
04:13 It's so much easier than wood.
04:15 And so TREX, you know, they're the inventor and leaders of composite decking.
04:20 This is their next generation decking.
04:22 It's called TREX Transcend Lineage.
04:24 Let's transcend ourselves right there, Brad.
04:26 Isn't that beautiful?
04:27 So these boards, they're designed to reflect the sun.
04:30 So they keep, it keeps the boards cooler.
04:33 They're also designed to resist stains, scratches, and mold.
04:37 So what I'm hearing right here, very low maintenance, just soap and water, unlike wood, right?
04:42 And look at how natural.
04:43 It actually looks like real wood, five colors inspired by nature.
04:48 You're feeling good on that deck.
04:50 You're looking beautiful on that deck because it's such a gorgeous deck.
04:53 Guess what?
04:54 You can also feel good about buying it because this is a sustainably made product from 95%
05:00 recycled and reclaimed materials.
05:02 Oh, and by the way, Brad, did I mention it has a 50 year warranty?
05:06 So look good and feel good on that deck, right?
05:08 Ooh, I like that.
05:09 You know, I just laid down the concrete to put down a deck.
05:12 That's what I'm going to go do.
05:13 Done.
05:14 You're good.
05:15 We got the checklist all set, right?
05:17 We do.
05:18 And where can we find more information about our checklist?
05:21 Everybody should go to bethebesthome.com.
05:22 Perfect.
