Abstract:
1. A multi-component system for cooling a building structure with a living area and an attic area, comprising: an air vent system adapted to be mounted in a wall adjacent to the living area of the building structure, the air vent system configured to permit air to flow through and to allow air to pass from outside of the building structure into inside the building structure; a building cooling system configured to lower the temperature in a building structure; a fan assembly system, said fan assembly system comprising an air intake, a motorized fan having a rpm motor between 1000-1600 rpm, air flow capacity of at least 1000 cfm, and a flexible acoustical and thermal insulating duct having an insulating R value of at least 4, said insulating duct interconnecting the motorized fan and the air intake, wherein the motorized fan is adapted to be mounted in the attic area of the building structure and the air intake is positioned in an opening formed in a horizontal wall separating the attic area and the living area; and a temperature sensor configured to operate the building cooling system and the fan assembly systems in the building structure, the temperature sensor configured to adjust the temperature inside the building structure, wherein the temperature sensor is configured to turn the building cooling system on or off, and the temperature sensor is configured to turn the fan assembly system on or off; wherein the fan assembly system is adapted to create a negative static pressure in the living area, causing outside ambient air to be drawn through the air vent system; and wherein the fan assembly system is adapted to draw the air in the living area up through the air intake and the duct, and to expel said air into the attic area to create a positive static pressure sufficient to cause air in the attic area to be pushed out through vents in the attic area and to substantially inhibit outside air to be drawn into the attic area through the vents.
