Home ventilation plays an important role in the comfortability of your home. Having adequate ventilation can not only save you money but also improve your indoor air quality. Learn about the different home ventilation options available below!
Whole house fans can drastically cool your home while using less energy than it would be to run your air conditioner. On average, the savings of using a whole house fan compared to an HVAC system is about 50%
Whole house fans save energy by utilizing the cooler weather outside to cool the home. The whole house fan draws in the cold air and circulates it through the home. All you have to do is open the windows and your whole house fan will draw in the air and within minutes your home temperature will drop. This not only saves you money on your energy bill, but it will also prolong the life of your HVAC system. Your heating and air conditioning system will not have to work as hard to cool your home and use as much energy to keep up with elements naturally heating your home during the day such as cooking with your oven/stove.
Have you tried thinking of ways to save on your energy bill? One of the biggest expenses on your home is your heating and air conditioning system. It is costly to replace and costly to run. Many people do not think about their attic space and how it is affecting the comfortability of their home.
Your attic space can reach anywhere from 130-160 degrees in the summertime. If you think about it, when your attic is at that high of a temperature, the stagnant hot air is continuously reheating your house. Your attic is the only space in your home that is not benefitting from your HVAC system. The heat in your attic is a part of the reason why your heating and air conditioning system is working harder in the summertime.
Installing an attic fan will allow the hot air to be pushed out of the attic. This will help with the constant rising heat in your home and allow for your heating and air conditioning system to efficiently cool your home. The less your HVAC system has to run to keep up the more efficient it will be and less wear and tear on it.
