What is a Whole House Fan?
Whole House Fans are used to cool your entire house and attic by pulling in cool air from outdoors and exhausting the hot air into the attic where it vents outdoors. Whole house attic fans cool your house for a fraction of the cost of air conditioning.
How Does a Whole House Fan Work?
Whenever Outside Temperatures Are Cooler - You Would Open Your Home's Windows And Turn On Your whole house fan. Cooler Outdoor Air Flows Through The Home - Cooling The Living Space Of Your Home. Designed to pull out hot air from a house or building, a whole house fan serves the purpose of an exhaust system.
What Is The Difference Between Whole House Fans and Attic Fans?
Many people confuse a whole house fan with an attic fan, but the two accomplish different goals. Whole house fans pull the hot air from inside your house into the attic where it vents outdoors. Attic fans simply force hot air out of the attic and don't provide any cooling to the living area. Although whole house fans may be installed in an attic, the primary difference is that whole house fans suck all the hot air out of your house, drawing in cooler outdoor air in through the windows.
Is a Whole House Fan Less Expensive to Operate Than Air Conditioning?
Americans Spend 22 Billion Dollars Each Year To Cool Their Homes With Air Conditioning! In hot climates such as California, Texas, Florida, etc. a homeowner with a 2,800 square foot home Could Easily Spend $3,000 Over A Six Month Period Using A Central Air Conditioner To Cool Their Home!
Compare The Savings When Using A Whole House Fan To Cool Your Home. A Whole House Fan's Operating Cost Is ONE TENTH The Cost Of A/C Usage! If during a same six month period the homeowner who spent $3,000 on air conditioning used a whole house fan instead, they could have saved $2,700!
In climates that are mild and temperate, a whole house fan can completely eliminate the need to have air conditioning, such as central whole house air conditioning. You may be able to reduce your energy costs by 80 percent by installing an energy efficient whole house fan.
If you live in an area with a moderate climate, you may be able to use a whole house fan for most of your cooling needs and reserve your air conditioner for the hottest hours of the day. A 5 Ton Central Air Conditioning Unit Can Use More Than 6000 Watts Of Electricity Per Hour! Compare that to 118-800 watts of power usage with one of our whole house fans. Installing & using a whole house fan is the most affordable and cost effective energy saving solution you could make that will have the greatest direct impact on your monthly utility bills.

How Long Will It Take To Cool Your Home?
All homes are unique and their are many factors that determine how long it will take your home to cool down. A whole house fan is not air conditioning. A whole house fan works fastest when their is a large difference between the outdoor air temperature and indoor air temperature.
For example, on a spring day, say peak daytime temperatures hit 80 degrees Fahrenheit, the inside of your home warms up to an uncomfortable 90 degrees F. During the evening hours, the outside temperature drops below 55 degrees F. When you turn on your whole house fan cooling happens and it will it is very quick. This is because you are replacing your homes air with 60 degree air - and removing much hotter air.
Now take a hot summer day, where daytime temperatures exceed 95 degrees F. As the sun beats down on your home, heat begins to store in your attic and home's structure. Attic temperatures could easily exceed 140 degrees F. During the evening, the outdoor air temperature drops to a range in the high 70's. The moment your whole house fan turns on, the cooling process begins, as the fan replaces hot air with cooler outside air. Cooling in this case happens, but at a slower rate.
