Homeowners are sleeping better, staying cooler and reducing the cost of air-conditioning by this single, most effective and easy step–you can too!
Did you every wonder why the summer temperature in your bedrooms is ten degrees warmer than the main floor? It’s the 150 degree attic heat backing up through the ceilings, says Jeff Tideman, of Villa Park’s Jet Fan. Tideman, with 27 years of fan installation experience, combines his expertise with the installation of the “world’s best attic fan”.
“Insulation isn’t enough,” says Tideman. “Air conditioners have to work harder and run longer to make it comfortable upstairs. At the same time, the basement is freezing.”
According to studies by the Home Ventilation Institute, homeowners can save up to 30% on air conditioning costs with a powered attic fan. An attic fan forces hot air right out of the attic. Hot, humid air is exhausted and physically forced out of the attic, while drawing in cooler, dryer air from the outside through whatever vents are already in place. The attic fans runs only when conditions require it.
Jet Fan attic fans are all metal and rust proof. All components are American made. The power used to operate the fan is 250 watts–much less power than an air conditioner uses to cool the effect of hot attic air.
Jet Fans are available in two different sizes, says Tideman. Professional installers can determine which model is most efficient for your home.
