What Is The Difference Between Active and Passive Attic Ventilation?


Listen Later

In this episode of the Check A Pro Radio Show, host Jim Klauck, also known as Check A Pro Joe, is joined by ventilation expert Paul Doane to discuss the crucial differences between passive and active attic ventilation systems.

Paul explains how passive ventilation works, allowing air to naturally flow in and out of your attic, and why this method alone may not be sufficient in hot climates like Texas. He delves into the benefits of active ventilation, including the use of attic fans to actively move air and reduce humidity, ensuring greater comfort and lower electricity bills.

Using a compelling analogy of a sailboat versus a motorboat, Jim and Paul illustrate the effectiveness of active ventilation in achieving optimal comfort and efficiency. They also touch on the challenges posed by Texas' extreme heat and the importance of having a robust ventilation system to combat the relentless sun exposure on rooftops.

Don't miss this informative discussion that could help you make your home more comfortable and energy-efficient.
