Southwest Riverside County & the Temecula Valley
Whole House Fan Installation — Temecula Valley
Hot days, cool nights: whole house fan country.
When Menifee cools off after sunset, a whole house fan flushes the day's heat from the house and attic in minutes, for a fraction of what the AC costs to run. We size it to your attic venting and install it clean.
Cool nights and spring checklists
Night air in — the cheap half of valley comfort.
Two windows crack open at dusk, the attic exhausts the day's heat, and the AC stays off until tomorrow afternoon.
The valley bundle
Fan, attic, and a tune-up — the cheap comfort stack.

Above the ceiling
Where the fan actually lives
The housing hangs off the framing on isolators so the noise stays up there, and insulated flex duct carries the air to the damper you see in the ceiling. Two windows open and the day's heat is out of the house.

In-home estimate
The $75 visit is credited toward the install. We verify attic venting can handle the fan and put the job in writing before work starts.

Install
Ceiling cut, mount, and a dedicated switch or remote — you'll know before the saw comes out whether your attic makes it a half-day or full-day job.

The evening test
First cool evening, open two windows, flip it on, feel the whole house exhale.
How loud are modern whole house fans?
Ducted and insulated-damper models run at conversation-friendly levels on low. Far quieter than old direct-mount fans.
Can you run a whole house fan and AC at the same time?
No. The AC seals the house to cool it; the fan pulls outside air through and exhausts it via the attic. Run one or the other, never both.
Do I need attic insulation with a whole house fan?
Not required, but thin attic insulation lets heat soak back into the house overnight after the fan has cooled it. If yours runs thin, we'll flag it at the same visit.
