The Dynamic of Attic Ventilation and Temperature Inversion.

Have you ever opened your attic access and been greeted with that blast of incredibly hot air? That’s “oppression” , and it’s responsible for keeping every home several degrees hotter then it has to be. In addition, it’s the primary cause for most mold and mildew problems found in homes today.


By keeping the attic air cooler, less heat can be conducted by the ceiling, which is one of the primary cause of heat gain within the house interior. In addition, it should increase the life of your roofing, as well as anything you may have in your attic space.

Attic temperatures can reach 170° F or more in the summer. That translates to ceiling temperatures that can reach a 100° F or more.

By venting heat within the attic before it is conducted by the ceiling, ceiling temperatures can be lowered by 10°-30° F. Interior room temperatures can be lowered as much as 15° F.

You can save thousands of dollars in electric expenses over the life expectancy of a quality Solar Attic Fan. Lower AC usage equates to less wear and tear on the equipment which, in turn, lowers maintenance costs.

REMEMBER....Not all solar fans are created equal, it is very important you do your homework on WHO the manufacturer is, WHAT the product is made of and WHERE you can get specific data to back up any claims of performance.
