Can't be. Too high for his IQ.

I've contemplated an attic "suck" squirrel cage for this time of year when the weather is offensive to liberals (who have to endure the s*it-hole weather of their home states ;-)

Vent house ductwork into attic.

Cut an intake thru a wall of the house (*), outfitted with a filter, so that pollen isn't an issue (I have those problems... mostly desert dust), and that way an open window doesn't compromise the alarm system when we're away.

In the Summer I'd just "suck" the attic and garage.

(*) Thinking this thru, east and west ends of attic have roughly 4' x

I've already looked into flame-proof vents to place between garage space and attic. They are off-the-shelf. I've also figured out how to conveniently add cat walks thru-out the attic with minimal tool effort... a service convenience I've wanted for some time. ...Jim Thompson

Not in AZ. I can produce air (in April thru early July) so cold you would think you could hang meat (around 60ºF exit temperature at 6000 CFM ;-) ...Jim Thompson

They certainly are in the other A state, about 1Kmi to the right. ;-) ...and I suppose too in the third A state a few Kmi up. ;-)

"A" as in asshole states ?:-) ...Jim Thompson

Hell no. They're on both coasts.

Mechanical timers ignore power outages.

Come on! His 'ID10t Quotient' is off the top of the scale!

Yeah, these boxes are pro HVAC types of units, not found in Lowes or Home Depot. You could probably find them on-line.

But, the draw is purely from the venturi in the manifold. I don't think there is a waste outlet...

And i get an even better taste with 7 to 10 % initial fat. YMMV =20 The Johnsonville brats are about 30 to 35 %.

...and they are also very cheap, reliable and will switch a lot of current. Replace that with electronics and it would cost ten times as much.

Engineering is about making the solution fit the problem, so why make stuff more complicated than it needs to be ?...

Rheem brand A/C units immerse the condenser coils in a water bath fed from a simple-minded evap cooler.

Seemed a keen idea, _except_ I fret over scaling problems, given you could build a sturdy house from Phoenix water ;-)

You just need enough area to ensure you can't pull droplets off the pads. I never had that problem, and I had a 6000CFM unit. I always used the old-fashioned Aspen pads. I tried fiberglass and those pressed paper POS'. Aspen expands when wet and doesn't develop holes.

It's been fifteen years since I last had an evap cooler, so I don't know what's available now-a-days. I got my first evap cooler at the manufacturer because they weren't then commonly available at Home Depot. Had a nice chat with the plant manager... it's a year-round business, when he wasn't selling in AZ, he was selling in Saudi Arabia ;-) ...Jim Thompson

Can't send a link, but plug

Google maps wants decimal degrees, try:

That gives the vicinity of West Burrafirth, Shetland.

Much of which leaves them if poked and barbequed properly.

You can make both do either/or. Mech times with li'l tic-toc movement in there, got one of those here. A CD4060 can be run off a large cap for a looong time. If designed right, and that's the trick.

All you'd have to do there is lay a duct to the end of the attic, then put the fan and a filter there. But nobody makes them :-(

I was thinking about a 6" or 8" inline fan and making my own filter. But I doubt that's going to be even close in terms of required airflow.

Oh yeah, that is a lonely place out there. Probably Chris' friend doesn't get bothered by door-to-door sales people a lot :-)

Never made your own ductwork? When I was a kid in Jr. High and High School, sheet metal shop was a requirement for all males (before equal rights... the girls had to take Home Economics ;-)

Since this would be at mild weather and/or attic exchange rate, I'd guess a 1000-2000CFM squirrel cage would do it. I'd probably use 4

Sure I did. But you can't get the proper fans with filters up front. I mean a kind that would pass inspection.

Pleated filters in an array for outside air intake would get expensive. At least around here.
