Re: So I want to get my attic insulated...

You want to be careful with attic fans, if it has too high of a CFM rating it can pull your cool air into the attic making your AC work harder.

Many younger people don't know what an attic fan is. Our daughter in Ft. Worth has one in her house, but it is maybe 60 years old.
I was thinking of either an exhaust fan through an outside wall, or a big circulating fan blowing the hot air out through an open garage door. With any type of eshaust system, you must have an intake to let outside air in. That should not be through an airconditioned space.
The point is, when it really gets hot, we'll sit around and complain, but we probably won't do much of anything else.
