What is an Attic Fan

An attic fan is a cooling system installed in your attic space. Its primary purpose is to remove hot air from your attic, helping cool your home. Attic fans maintain a comfortable indoor environment and lessen the load on your air conditioning system by releasing warm air and pulling in cooler air from outside.

Attic fans are particularly beneficial in areas like Sacramento. They create a continuous airflow that prevents heat buildup in your attic, which can significantly impact your home’s temperature and energy efficiency.

What is a  Whole House Fan

A whole house fan is a powerful ventilation system installed in your home’s ceiling. Unlike attic fans, which focus on ventilating the attic space, whole house fans are designed to cool your entire home. They pull cool air in from open windows and exhaust hot air through the attic.

Whole house fans are an excellent alternative or supplement to traditional air conditioning systems. They’re especially effective in the Sacramento area, where evening temperatures often drop significantly, providing an opportunity to cool your home naturally and efficiently.

Difference Between Whole House Fans and Attic Fans

  • Location: Attic fans are installed in the attic space, while whole house fans are typically installed in a central hallway ceiling.
  • Operation: Attic fans often run continuously or based on temperature, while whole house fans are typically operated when the temperature outside is cooler than it is inside.
  • Coverage: Attic fans focus on ventilating the attic, while whole house fans cool the entire living space.
