How QuietCool Works
The QuietCool whole-house fan is designed to work when the outdoor temperature is lower than the indoor temperature. Stationed in your attic, Quiet Cool pulls air through slightly open windows and expels stale, hot air through attic vents.
You can selectively open windows to direct where the breeze will enter your home.
For example, you could run your QuietCool system in the morning with windows open in the kitchen and dining area where your family gathers for breakfast. As the temperature climbs outdoors, you turn the fan off and close the windows.
As the heat intensifies, it may be cool enough indoors to close blinds and drapes on south-facing windows without operating a fan or AC. If you need additional cooling, you turn on your AC.
When the outdoor temperature dips below the indoor temperature, typically in the early evening, turn the AC off, open a few windows, and start the QuietCool fan. You can even run the fan overnight with the bedroom windows open.
The idea is to use your fan instead of your air conditioning whenever the outdoors feels cooler than indoors. Mornings, evenings, and overnight hours are the perfect times to use your QuietCool fan.
You will save energy and money while lessening the impact on the environment. Whole-house fans do not have refrigerant lines that can leak harmful substances into the atmosphere.
Your Marin County Home Stays Cool
You can run your central air conditioning whenever the outdoor temperature surpasses the temperature inside your house, generally in the late morning through early evening.
However, your AC use may drastically drop by 50 to 90 percent after prepping your home with a QuietCool fan for the hot day ahead.
The QuietCool system exchanges all the air inside your home 15-20 times an hour, rapidly cooling your living space and attic. Your home stays comfortable longer from the cool outdoor air.
Merely opening a few windows without running a fan may bring air into your home, but the cooling breeze will not reach the hot attic. A house cooled by a whole-house fan may remain comfortable without AC for hours, even during the hottest part of the day.
QuietCool Improves Indoor Air Quality (IAQ)
Because the QuietCool fan ventilates while also cooling your home, it removes contaminated air and replaces it with fresh, cool outdoor air.
Gases from volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in household products, paints, and other materials flow into the QuietCool fan and are exhausted to the outdoors. The QuietCool whole-house fan also rids your living space of airborne bacteria, viruses, particulate matter such as dust and smoke, and odors as it constantly moves stale, contaminated air from your home.
According to the American Lung Association, indoor air can be two to five times more polluted than outside air and can spur the development of lung cancer, asthma, and infections. A whole-house fan can significantly improve indoor air quality.
Enhance IAQ with Fresh Air
Ventilation is one of the strategies recommended by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for improving indoor air. Ventilating is what QuietCool does best.
At Divine Electric and Plumbing, we suggest running the QuietCool system only when the outdoors has a low pollution level. Be sure to check air quality before operating your whole-house fan.
