Attic Breeze works by pulling cool outside air into the attic through your home's soffit vents, replacing the hot attic air that is being exhausted by the fans.  As air is actively circulated through the attic, heat is removed from the roof decking and surrounding structure, lowering the attic temperature.  And when your attic is cooler, everything in your attic just works better.

As the sun heats your roof throughout the day, attic temperatures can reach over 150 degrees in the summer without proper ventilation.  This trapped hot air increases the flow of heat into your home through both your attic insulation and into your air conditioning ducts, forcing your air conditioner to work harder than needed.  Attic Breeze solar attic fans offer the perfect solution to this ventilation problem by continuously removing attic heat throughout the day.  With a cooler attic, your air conditioner works less, meaning you will spend less money cooling your home.

Attic insulation is the primary method builders use to keep heat from entering your home.  This works great when the insulation is new, but over time excessive attic heat and moisture will degrade and compact insulation making it less effective at keeping out the heat.  Attic Breeze helps extend the life of your attic insulation by continuously removing attic heat and moisture throughout the day.  And by lowering the average temperature in the attic, your insulation actually works better and becomes more effective at reducing heat transfer into your home.  When heat transfer from the attic is reduced, the result is a more comfortable home that requires less energy to cool.

You may be surprised to know that the efficiency rating of your air conditioner (SEER rating) is only valid at 77°F.  As operating temperatures increase, the actual SEER rating of your air conditioner decreases.  For homes that have HVAC equipment installed in the attic space, your air conditioner will use more energy to operate the hotter your attic becomes due to heat gain.  Attic Breeze works by removing heat and reducing the attic temperature, allowing your air conditioner to operate more efficiently and use less energy to cool your home.  And the less your air conditioner needs to operate, the more money you will save on cooling bills and equipment repairs.

As the temperature of your roof increases throughout the day, shingles will give off heat both to the surrounding outside air and into the attic space.  The more heat the shingles can transfer away, the lower the resulting roof temperature.  However when an attic is poorly ventilated, the air inside becomes so hot that it causes heat transfer from the roof to slow down, forcing the temperature of the shingles to increase even more.  This excessive heat buildup can ruin roof shingles over time causing them to buckle and deteriorate prematurely.  Attic Breeze solves this problem by continuously removing trapped hot air from the attic space, allowing your roof to release the maximum amount of heat possible.  And a cooler roof means your shingles last longer, saving you money.
