Refurbish Old House Vented Attic Now Heat And Air Consdition

Noticed one of the attic vents was not working.

Refurbish old house vented attic now heat and air consdition.

Low cfm similar to a bathroom vent 300cfm and only in the hot spots basically by adding an inline ducting fan to the return ducts for the hotspot rooms. Attic hvac systems save space. Help purchased home 8 years ago with 2 power attic vents. Well mainly it s a way to save space.

For the best results place roof ventilation near the roof s peak and soffit vents in the eaves. Vents come in various styles. Attics and heat the condenser in your air conditioner works hard to get rid of heat and pressurize refrigerant for the return trip through your house. Most updated central air conditioned homes have a new air conditioner split system meaning the ac is broken up into parts.

Air flows in through the soffit vents and out through the roof vents. If you see dampness or frost you need better roof ventilation and some attic vents. My idea is to vent the build up of hot air that has risen to the ceiling in the hotspot rooms into the attic so that air from cooler parts of the house can move in. An outdoor unit which houses the fan condenser and compressor and an indoor unit which holds the evaporator and fan.

Told that the 2 attic power vents are the only attic ventilation i have the house does have vented soffits every other soffit cover is vented. So why put an hvac system up in the attic at all. Things have been ok low energy bills house very comfortable.
