THE QUIET COOL QC-1500 WHOLE HOUSE FANS

- New For 2010 - Quiet Cool Fans are now California Energy Commission Certified

In the past, homeowner have had limited choices when it comes to whole house fan installations.  Read below to see why Choice #3 is the best solution on the market.

Choice #1) Bargain or home improvement store type fans

You could buy a traditional whole house fan from a home improvement store.  These fans will move a huge amount of air, but these fans have been described as extremely loud and they leave a large un-insulated hole in your ceiling, which allows for cold air intrusion in the wintertime and loss of air conditioning in the summer months.  These fans are frequently installed only in a common area of a home (top of the stairs or hallway) mounted directly above your ceiling.

Many homeowners may not want to run these fans continuously during the evening hours, because of the extremely loud noise that they generate.  These types of fans are generally belt driven, which can require maintenance and belt replacement over time.  They also require framing or cutting of the joist and may need additional roof venting for proper operation.

Choice #2) Single fan installations. These may have motorized doors and plastic fan blades

You could buy a single 1000-2800 CFM (cubic feet per minute) fan. They may be the most expensive to purchase and the noise level may inhibit conversation, TV viewing, etc.  The fan is usually installed in a centrally located area of your home (hallway, stairway etc.)  Depending on the CFM and the square footage of your home, it can take a long time to adequately cool and ventilate.  A single 1000-1600 CFM unit is often too small to move the proper amount of air to cool and ventilate your entire home quickly (see sizing chart below).

These fans could also have huge, unrealistic attic space clearance requirements for proper installation and operation.

You will find that custom framing is required to install these types of fans and they may have moving or motorized parts that could wear out or need service after time.

Since these types of fans are commonly installed in a hallway or other common area (in a single fan configuration), it makes it difficult to pull air into other rooms such as your bedrooms with the doors closed.  Although they may be quieter than traditional whole-house fans, these units may still be considered noisy.  The loud noise may deter many homeowners from installing fans in rooms such as bedrooms, dens, or family rooms etc.

The manufacture warranty for these types of fans is generally limited to only 3-5 years.

Choice #3) THE BEST SOLUTION
 

THE QUIET COOL WHOLE-HOUSE FAN SYSTEM

Just Flip A Switch and Begin To Cool & Ventilate Your Home. Quiet Cool Whole-House Fans Are Revolutionizing the Market!

The Quiet Cool System is a "New Generation Product," based on a proven method of whole-house cooling that has been around for years.  It is the most versatile cooling and ventilating system on the market today! It Cools. It Ventilates. It Exhausts.

The Quiet Cool fans are a multi-fan and multi-location system that moves 1527 CFM of air per fan.  They are easy to install and have insulated self-closing, damper doors, that create a positive closure to prevent air from freely flowing from the house to the attic when the fans are not in operation.

Most importantly, the Quiet Cool fans are attached in a hanging position from your attic rafters, away from your living area to provide tremendously quiet operation, less than 0.4 sones (a sone is a subjective unit of loudness). The next quietest fan on the market is about 3.0 sones, more than 7 times as loud as the Quiet Cool system!

One of the main reasons that other manufacturer's fans are much louder than the Quiet Cool fans is because their fans are mounted on wood framing in the attic and flush to your ceiling, (this places the motor directly above your living space which ='s NOISE).

The Quiet Cool system is designed to cool and ventilate your entire home by pulling warm, stale air up and out of the home while drawing fresh cool air in. Insulated, air conditioning grade ducting is used in the Quiet Cool systems to reduce irritating fan noise.  The Quiet Cool fans are so quiet, they can be installed in any room (with attic access), including bedrooms and can be operated while you soundly sleep!  You have the option of privacy when operating the Quiet Cool fans with the bedroom doors closed!  This is a benefit never before seen with traditional whole house fans, that are usually mounted in a hallway or in a central location.

The Quiet Cool fans can be controlled individually or multiple fans can be wired to a wall timer with a double or triple switch.  With this flexibility you can control when, where, and how much air flow moves through your home by simply turning on or off your Quiet Cool fans to reach the ideal comfort level.  For example, you could turn off your Quiet Cool fan in the kids room and leave the fans in the master bedroom or hallway on (with the bedroom doors opened or closed).  Turn on all of your fans to increase your CFM to cool your entire house.

In many climates, a Quiet Cool system may even eliminate the need for an air conditioner. Quiet Cools are more energy efficient than air conditioning, and that's good news for your pocketbook and the environment.

The Quiet Cool fans are maintenance free and simple to install. There are no motorized doors, no plastic fan blades, no specialized framing or custom carpentry requirements and there are no belts to replace.  The fan blades are metal not plastic.

A standard 3-prong, 6' power cord is included. This option allows for simply plugging the fans into an a/c attic outlet and using an switch, X-10 or Insteon remote system (not included) to turn the fans off/on.  For traditional installations, you can easily remove the 6' power cord for standard hardwiring to 6 hour wall timers (this is the recommended installation method).

The Quiet Cool fans are 100% made in the USA and come with a 10-year manufacturer warranty.

What is a whole house fan? 

    Cool outside air is drawn in & forced out of the attic

Whole house fans are rated according to the amount of air they can move. This is measured in cubic feet of air per minute, or CFM. In order to be effective, a whole house fan’s CFM rating should be 2 to 4 times the square footage of the house. For example, a 1,500 square foot house should have a whole house fan system capable of moving 3,000 to 6,000 CFM of airflow.

Overall attic venting is the only limiting factor on how many CFM can be efficiently moved. Attic venting can be easily increased by adding vents. Too many CFM of airflow without the proper attic venting can cause undue stress on the whole house fan and pressurizes the attic and walls. Too little CFM's will not provide the desired minimum of air exchanges per hour as recommended by national ventilation experts and may not provide the cooling draft to lower house, attic, and skin temperatures in a timely fashion.

When viewing our sizing chart, we recommend that you select at mininum the "Good" level of airflow. The "Poor" category of the chart is often what other whole house fan brands are recommending. The "Poor" level of sizing may not produce the desired cooling and ventilation results.

*The QC-1500 series of fans can be installed on a verticle wall instead of a ceiling if there is adjacent attic space and sufficient attic venting.

How Many Quiet Cool Fans Should I order?

Besides the cooling and energy saving benefits that you realize when you use whole-house fans, they are also an excellent way to provide whole house ventilation.

We are proud that many California utility companies recognize and value and the ability of our system to conserve substantial amounts of electricity on cooling in conjunction with your air conditioner. They are willing to pay thousands of dollars in rebates to have the Quiet Cool fan systems installed in homes. Whole house fans save energy, money and are good for the environment.

Add this new technology to your home and you can easily save up to 90% on your electric bill.  By choosing to finance with low monthly payments, your savings may actually be greater than your monthly payments.  Throw in energy saving rebates and that makes Quiet Cool Fans a very smart investment!

*Because we do not know the customers amount of air conditioning usage, or how the home is constructed, or how many other electrical appliances are used, we cannot guarantee how much the savings would be for your particular home. Rebates may not be available in all areas. Check with your local utility company.


In Addition To Cooling Your Home, You Can Use The Quiet Cool System To Ventilate Pollutants From Your Home Year Round!

IS THE AIR IN YOUR HOUSE MAKING YOU SICK?

In homes across America, the quality of indoor air ( IAQ )can be worse than outdoor air.

  • Have you ever stopped to think about whether the air you're breathing at home is healthy?
  • Do you frequently have headaches or feel nauseous or tired in your home?
  • Do you feel better when you leave the house?

~Why Ventilation Is So Important~

According to the Environmental Protection Agency, Americans spend about 90 percent of their time indoors, where concentrations of pollutants are often much higher than those outside. Risk assessments performed for radon, environmental tobacco smoke (ETS), and lead have shown that health risks are substantial.

Thousands of chemicals and biological pollutants are found indoors, many of which are known to have significant health impacts both indoors and in other environments.

Air inside in our homes is up to 100 times more polluted than outdoor air.  If too little outdoor air enters a dwelling, microorganisms can collect to levels that pose health and comfort problems. This problem can be especially serious in the energy efficient homes built in the last twenty years. These homes may not allow enough air changes, keeping contaminated air in and fresh air out.

  • The EPA has identified indoor air quality as one of the five most urgent environmental risks to public health.

  • The majority of all infections and allergies are passed from one person to the other through the air.

  • The National Academy of Sciences Institute of Medicine reports that exposure to indoor pollutants is a key contributor to the asthma problem of this nation.

  • Today's tighter, better insulated homes limit natural ventilation and trap indoor air contaminants inside.

The QC-1500 system can also be used to help eliminate pet odors, moisture, burned food smells, and smoke. Every home will benefit from using the QC-1500 system for cooling and ventilating all year round!!
