Reducing Attic Temperature May Reduce Cooling Costs

Does your customer have an air conditioning system in their attic which is sweltering hot? They can reduce their cooling load by at least ½ a ton by venting the attic with a Ventamatic attic fan. Most people may not realize their attic is not properly ventilated and by the end of a hot day the heat trapped in the attic will start to radiate through any insulation and be driven down into the living area. Adding an attic ventilator will also extend the life of your roof shingles which will start to curl up from the excess heat. If you don’t do this type of work suggest they get a contractor to correct this problem. We stock the Ventamatic attic fans which come in a roof mount and a gable mount. Both come with a thermostat which will turn the fan on and off as needed. No close access to electric no problem, Ventamatic offers a solar powered attic fan.
