Default Working in hot attic

I've done that in a hot cellar, one time. Another fellow and
I were installing central AC. Of course, it was killer hot.
I think the other guy thought of it, to run the central AC
for a few minutes, while we did the duct work. Did a good
job, too.

I just had a conversation with a chap who's putting more
insulation in his
attic. I jokingly reminded him to start at 3:00 a.m. to
avoid the 135°F
attic temps we've been experiencing locally.

He said "Nah, no problem. I disconnect an A/C duct and let
it cool the
attic. Gets it down to about 80-85°. I re-tape the duct when
I'm done."

After reassembling the parts of my exploded brain, I
calculated he might be
on to something...
