Attic insulation that is less than r 19.
Putting warm summer room air into the attic will not cause condensation because the attic ventilation should vent the area.
Attic fans are intended to cool hot attics by drawing in cooler outside air from attic vents soffit and gable and pushing hot air to the outside.
Using a fan to blow hot air out of the attic doesn t address the radiant heat flow from the roof to the attic floor.
However if your attic has blocked soffit vents and is not well sealed from the rest of the house attic fans will suck cool conditioned air up out of the house and into the attic.
An attic floor that is thoroughly air sealed.
Condensation is caused when warm moist air reaches its dew point.
Cooler outdoor air enters through open windows lowering the indoor temperature.
It s a big fan and basically the idea is that when it starts to get a little sticky you turn the fan on and it just you open up a few windows around the house and it pulls a nice breeze throughout the house.
Attic ventilation fans could be effective if your home has.
Open your windows before you turn on the fan.
Trying to solve the heat gain problem in your attic by using a fan is like lying out at the beach with a fan blowing over you and thinking you re not going to get a sunburn.
In the late evening or early morning the fan is turned on to exhaust hot air from the house.
