Cooling a finished attic
I recently finished my attic this Fall/Winter and enjoyed wonderful
room temperatures since, however, as the temp starts to rise this spring, the attic is unbelievably hot. 70Degrees outside usually means 85 degrees in the attic. I am scared to think what 90degrees outside will mean for the attic. I have researched portable air conditioners and have determined that they will be inadequate for the attic (about 450sq ft.). The windows are too narrow for standard window units. Has anyone used attic fans to cool a finished attic? Also, does anyone have any other suggestions for this problem. Thanks, Tom |
