Solar Attic Fans: Creating Comfort In Your Personal Space
It is a basic human wish to be at peace and bask in the comfort of your own home. It’s our castle, our inner sanctum. That level of comfort is not always possible. Little projects keep cropping up or long neglected issues rear their ugly head at the worst possible time. The smartest approach would be to face the issues head on and try to solve them. Solar Roof Fan can help you by preventing one of the most insidious of home invaders: mold.
Solar attic fans play an important role in the long term maintenance and healthy environment of your home by eliminating the things that promote the growth of mold. Mold can only grow if you allow it. There are three important ingredients for mold growth: heat, moisture, and darkness. Two of these factors are taken out of the picture by solar fans. Normal activities such as taking a shower, doing dishes or washing laundry all release moisture in your home. The moisture travels upwards and end up in your attic, going into your insulation and even the framework of your roof. It is the same process when heat is introduced. The heat goes up and gets stuck in the house’s attic. It is already dark up there, so mold and mildew have everything that they need to grow.
The vents provide passive assistant but do not give the low necessary to creat a dry and cool space in the attic. Electric attic fans are an improvement, however you will have to deal with the additional cost when you receive your electic bill. These fans are further, somewhat limited because the thermostats that they are equipped with have a high temperature setting. Essentially, they do not run often enough to do a great job. Solar Attic Fans take care of these two challenges. Once installed they will not cost you a dime on your energy bill and installation is easy. Just put the new fan in the same hole that your old one was in. There is no difference in the amount of energy it uses, therefore keeping your energy consumption as is. Solar fans also have a lower setting on their thermostats, because of that, they run more often and keep your attic cooler and drier year round. A cooler and drier attic means another opportunity to save energy. In the summer your air conditioning will not have to work as hard to cool your home. If your attic is cool, not as much of the chilled air will be leached into the attic; saving you money on those dreaded summer cooling bills.
Your impact on the environment goes up considerably when you add in the lower energy consumption and the savings from the installation when you put in Solar Exhaust Fan. If all people could bring down the settings of their thermostats by one degree, it is estimated that as much as 10 years can be reduced from our dependence in foreign oil. Future generations would have more freedom than what we are experiencing now.
