Re: attic fan dehumify attic? Gil

[Guest guest]

Gil,

How about those attic 'turbines'? Are those any good for increasing

ventilation? I have vents in soffits and roof but they are static

ones. A roofer who was up there thought air flow seemed pretty good

but in the hot months it is really hot and humid feeling. I see

people with the turbines turning and wonder if I should add one. I

don't know about electrical things upstairs since I can't smell if

any electrical burning wires. Electrical wires burning frightens me

since one time I saw smoke coming from a plug in my bedroom. I had

not touched wire, just sitting there and started to throw a line of

smoke out like a cigarette. Luckily I was home and saw the little

tiny smoke but if not guess I would have lost alot including pets in

home.
