QuietCool Stealth Pro 7.0 – Whole House Fan Installation in 3150 Sq. Ft. Home in Clovis, CA
Chris contacted us because he was interested in getting a whole house fan. He saw us in Fresno Home Magazine and was intrigued at the prospect of reducing his cooling costs by up to 90% while also making his home feel immediately cooler by 5-10 degrees. When we inspected his attic, we found that we were able to install a QuietCool whole house fan, but his insulation was also low, contributing to his HVAC inefficiency and high cooling costs. We determined that an insulation upgrade and whole house fan installation were the solution to his home comfort issues.
We began by identifying the ideal location to place the QuietCool Stealth Pro 7.0 and installed it. Simultaneously, we sealed visible leakage points using closed-cell foam to mitigate the flow of air between the attic and the living spaces of the home. We then blew in fiberglass insulation to a height of 14 inches, bringing the resistance to heat flow to an R38 level. This is the Energy Star-recommended level for our climate.
As a result of the insulation upgrade and whole house fan installation, Chris and his family will enjoy reduced cooling costs by up to 90%, reduced heating costs by up to 30%, and a more comfortable home year-round for the life of their house.
