I didn't even think about the heat from the house floating up into the attic. I think I'll take your advise and put in an intake fan. I can put the board back in and then cut a hole in it for ducting. That way I'm not getting hot air floating in..I'll be getting cool air pulled in. I've already got the whole attic insulated because I too live in a victorian. O one more question if you have time. I didn't want to start a separate thread for this but... Say I have a 150 cfm exhaust fan and then I connect a 200 cfm exhaust fan with ducting to that one. Will the fans work at 350 cfm or not? The reason is because I have a lot of fans but not many outlets for exhaust. Thanks again for all your help along with everyone else that has added to this great site.
sirsmokealot23 Reviewed by sirsmokealot23 on . Heat-What I am doing wrong? Well I started to get heat problems with temps around 90 so I decided to add a 500 cfm exhaust fan at the top of my room to take out the heat. The problem is that it only made the temps go down like 2 degrees. Is this because I have no intake air or is my fan not big enough? My room is less than 800 sq ft. I have a 1000w light with a 180 cfm exhasut fan connected to it and the duct is very hot so I know its working. Instead of hooking up the new 500 cfm fan at the top of my room should I switch Rating: 5
