Yes, I’m sorry

Yes, this product is designed to be used in those areas during fall and spring. This is a big deal because you have to run ac 9-10 months a year and you can cut it down to only 3 months of heavy ac use. You will save a ton of money and pro long the life of your ac system. Your ac is your most expensive appliance to run and replace. They only last about 12.5 years on avg and you can have it last up 20-30 years if you use a whole house fan during the spring and fall.

Attic fans do not pull air from the house into attic. They just cool and ventilate your attic. They keep your attic within 10 degrees of the outline temperature at all times. There is no much air flow it is impossible to cause mold and condensation. It actually does the opposite and prevents it in your attic.

We make special screens that block out the dust and pollen. They’re called clean air screen.

We make a special window screen that blocks out dust and pollen. It’s the world’s first MERV rated screen. It’s called a clean air window screen

Yes, most definitely you can add another one. I would recommend getting a master bedroom fan and use it with central fan to mass cool the room but have your own personal one in your master bedroom. We call this a zone system.

@@qcmanufacturing thanks for the quick response. The house addition has two main areas, one is a new master suite, one is a new large kitchen. Both very important area. Both far from old whole house fan. You recommend A master bedroom fan, I am afraid that would not cover my kitchen area.

@losorchid3789 get one that does around 3k-4k CFM and it will cover it

I have both also, I run only 1 at a time. When the house fan is on it’s pulling air through the house open windows and pushing that air into the attic. That air is then being pushed out through your attic vents. So having the attic fan on won’t do much while that house fan is running. On hot days I leave the house fan off and run the air conditioner and have the attic fan on (thermostat controlled 95-100*) and that pulls air from one side of the gable vent and out the other side where the fan is. Leaving the house and attic climates separated. Hope this helps

@Number1redskinfan in the evening and night time hours you can run both together. It will help push the air out faster.

@@qcmanufacturing I did not know that, I will try that tonight 👍🏼

Yes, correct we recommend only running a whole house fan when it’s cooler outside than inside. You still need AC in your system.

Customers are experiencing our interactive display to show customers what it feels like to experience a whole house fan. This was there reaction from it

Did you like it? Where are you from?

Thank you!!

You can still run your swamp cooler. I know some customers that use the whole house fan to pull the cool air from the swamp cooler throughout the house.

It would make a huge difference. It’s going to be the attic within 5-10 degrees of the outside temp on avg. so even on 100 plus degree days instead of having an attic 150 degrees it will only be 110 degrees and follow it down as the temp drops.

Thanks for sharing your story. If you like whole house fans you need to try ours out. We make the new modern quiet ones.

Absolutely false, we have sold approximately 1 million fans across the entire USA. We have never had an issue with that. It comes from a lack of understanding.

Totally false! That is an old myth. Sounds like contractors that do not sell them. I have lived in Michigan most of my life. My current house, and my parents last house both have whole house fans. No problems as you state, ever. I highly recommend them for any house.

@jerrygriffin6388 thanks for chiming in and sharing your experiences

We have sizing videos on our CZcams channel. Pretty much depending on your climate zone you want to size your home by 2x-3x CFM per living space. If you live coastal it’s 2 CFM per sq ft. If you live inland or desert it’s 2.5-3 CFM per sq ft. Example if you live near the coast and have a 2000 sq ft home then you need at least 4000 CFM for your system. We have videos that cover this in great detail.

In the attic fan industry there are no decibel ratings because you really can’t hear anything in your home. I wouldn’t be too worried about the noise.

Have you tried our system out? Our fans are extremely quieter than a traditional fan. We have different models of fans that range from 1500 CFM to 7000 CFM. If you want power you to need to make sure to go with a bigger model.

@@qcmanufacturing I have not. I was talking generally. I will have to check yours out. It’s definitely intriguing.

@STSwhisperer check out our products. We make the best hands down in the industry from quality all the way to bringing them to the 2024 tech age.

You can but you need to be handy.

He felt the power of a whole house fan hitting him.

It gets you going lol

Yeah, you can only run it with solar and not grid power. It comes with an inverter so you can but you don’t have to use it.

If you cover it all the time? Yeah, but that’s not the point of a circulation vent.

If you left it there for a long period of time then yes. But this was for a demonstration to show the power of the fan.

Why the sad face?

Yes, look on our CZcams channel.

It’s because In shilling sometimes the motor housing can get an out of alignment and you want to check it just to be safe. This is a very rare occasion but we still want to be safe.

Which brand do you have? Most companies make cheap attic fans. Our attic fans have a 15 year warranty. Most likely your motor is burnt out.

Where are you from? On our attic fans we have a Humidistat that won’t allow you to run your fan if it is too humid. You have full control of setting the humidity levels.

Seattle

@anthony10370 we have thousands of happy customers in your market. I would highly recommend it there.

It doesn’t matter where you point the whole house fan in the attic by positive pressure it’s going to force the air out of all the attic vents.

@@qcmanufacturing > It doesn't matter Yes, it absolutely does. While it's true that the fan will draw air up from the living area and blow it out of all the attic vents (plus through leaks in wall top plates and around conduit, etc., back into the living space), you absolutely can blow more air out of the attic by placing the fan near an appropriately large exit hole, with a gap to allow scavenging. I urge you to look up some literature about airflow and scavenging. When I have time, I'll see what I can find to add here.

@planethedgehog2427 we recommend a certain amount ventilation in your attic. Yes, you can bring some air through some leaks if you don’t have proper ventilation. We have lots of videos on this topic on our CZcams Channel. If you follow our recommendations this problem will never happen. We have over 1 millions satisfied customers.

I don’t think you understand the concept. You only run it when it’s cooler outside than inside. You’re bringing in fresh air from outside into your living space and then up into your attic and out your attic vents. Outside air is 3x-5x cleaner than inside your home. You also don’t want to run it when it’s too humid either.

We make a roof mounted whole house fan the directs to the outside for homes that don’t have attics or sealed attics. We typically have the ducted whole house fan push the air into the attic space to cool the attic. The attic is the hottest part of the house and by pushing the hot air out of the attic by pressure it makes the attic balanced to the outside temp.

Are you referring to a ducted whole house fan?

@@qcmanufacturingyes. It sits right in front of my room and I’m pretty sure that’s why I have an attic entrance in my room. I have never gone up there but I wish I could before I move out 😂

Someone knows their stuff pretty good. You’re pretty spot on.

@@qcmanufacturing lol I’m a scientist. But yeah, living in SoCal I bring my work home to save money and make my home more comfortable and efficient and the QC whole home and attic fans have been the best I’ve found

It doesn’t matter if you open the window partially or all the way. You will still get the same amount of air flow. What you’re referring to is feeling the velocity of wind shooting through the window. The more you open the window the less velocity of the breeze you will feel. It’s all preference for the homeowner. Great question though

@@qcmanufacturing that’s not how air pressure works though. And I’d definitely request that you do an impartial temperature review of the same amount of windows opened, one cracked and one what you did… then temperature readings in each room… especially the rooms further away from the fan. If there is too little pressure, the further windows will NOT be able to get the same performance as the more open windows. I ask you do a video because I have done the tests with a kestrel in my own home to make sure I was doing it right.

Every morning, evening and night there is a huge temperature swing. It can be up to 50 degrees depending on where you live. You only run this product when it’s cooler outside than inside your home. The air will be pulled in through open windows into the living space and then up into the attic and then out your attic vents giving you a complete air exchange every 3-4 min. This allows you to cut your ac usage in half which is your most expensive appliance to run and replace. The is the ventilation systems you need in your HVAC system. Most people don’t have any ventilation products. There are a ton benefits that I’m not mentioning but just giving you the general how it works understanding.

From what I understand most attics or all have some kind of vents... Cold airikes to sink as hot air rises. If you turn on the ac, using the attic fan will help by pushing the hot air out and slow down the time it takes to cool a house down... Also can be used if the air outside is cooler

Thank you!! We have a ton of great content on our CZcams page.

I’m confused on what you mean. This product has no metal duct. Are you talking about the metal housing?

No need… like… at all….
