4.1 When to Run the QuietCool Whole House Fans
Anytime it is cooler outside than the inside of your home, the system will work effectively. In the summer this
normally happens in the late afternoon to early evening, through to the next morning. We recommend running
your fan through the evening. If you have a multi-speed fan, you will get the best cooling effect when you turn
the fan on low after desired cooling occurs and let it run throughout the night.
QuietCool can also be used in the winter to heat your home during the day and exhuast the pollutants inside
your home.
4.2 Where to Start Cooling the Home
We recommend cooling the area where you are going to be spending the most time for the next few hours.
For example, in most family situations, the early evening is spent in the kitchen or family room area. Assuming
this to be true, this is where you would want to start the cooling process.
Begin by opening a few windows in the area you are going to be spending your time and turn on all of your
QuietCool fans at once, for maximum cooling. The cooler air outside will immediately begin to create a breeze
in the home making you feel up to 10 degrees cooler, instantly. Opening windows too wide or opening too
many windows will lessen the cooling breeze you feel.
The breeze will flow through your home and make its way to each QuietCool you have in operation.
As it gets later in the evening, and even cooler outside, you can begin to open windows in other rooms of your
home, to prepare for bedtime. Then when it’s time for bed, you should close all the windows in your main living
space, but leave the windows in your occupied bedrooms open. This will provide each room with a cool breeze
as long as desired. If you are using an 8 hour timer, you can automate your fan and have it turn off when
you anticipate it being comfortable for sleeping. If you have a QuietCool installed in each bedroom as we
recommend, you can enjoy the breeze and your privacy with your door closed.
4.3 Indoor Air Quality
You will want to ventilate your home on a very regular basis. Many studies such as one from the Environmental
Protection Agency show that the air inside homes can be 2-5 times more polluted than the air outside, even
in the smoggiest of cities. Your QuietCool system can greatly reduce this problem by bringing in fresh air and
exhausting stale polluted air all year round.
