I think I know the answer to this, but I want to get some feedback.
We live in a hot climate. The second story of our house was built into the attic. The upstairs and downstairs have separate air conditioners. The attic is reasonably well insulated and vented, but it had two attic fans. About two years ago one of the fans quit working. About a year ago the one on the other end quit working. Now starting about noon or 1PM on hot days we can feel hot air coming down the stairwell. The upstairs a/c can't keep up - it gets up to 5 degrees above the thermostat setting. The a/c seems to be working, it just can't keep up when the attic gets so hot. It gets over 120F in the attic. It would be worth it to get the attic fans fixed, right? -- Replace you know what by j to email |
