When the weather in North Jersey starts to warm up, most homeowners immediately turn to their air conditioning systems. But there’s another solution that can keep your home comfortable while reducing energy bills — a whole house fan.
Whole house fans work with New Jersey’s cooler evening and early morning temperatures to pull fresh outdoor air into your home and push warm, stale air out. At CKG Contractors, we install high-performance Solatube Whole House Fans that give you fresher air, lower utility costs, and a more comfortable home environment.
How a Whole House Fan Works
A whole house fan is typically installed in the ceiling of a central hallway. When switched on, it draws cool air in through open windows and exhausts hot indoor air through attic vents. This creates a natural breeze throughout your home, replacing warm indoor air with fresh, cooler air from outside.
Unlike air conditioning, which recirculates indoor air, a whole house fan completely exchanges the air in your home in just a few minutes — leaving your space feeling fresh and comfortable.
Why Whole House Fans Are Perfect for New Jersey Homes
New Jersey’s climate offers many days and nights where the temperature drops significantly after sunset. These conditions are ideal for whole house fans, which work best when outdoor air is cooler than indoor air.
In our region, homeowners benefit from:
- Cooler Spring and Fall Nights – Perfect for naturally cooling your home without running the AC.
- Humidity Control – By exchanging air quickly, whole house fans can reduce lingering indoor humidity.
- Lower Energy Bills – Using a whole house fan during mild weather can dramatically cut air conditioning costs.
During peak summer months, a whole house fan can also work alongside your AC system, removing trapped hot air in the evenings so your system works less the next day.
Key Benefits of a Whole House Fan
- Quickly replaces hot indoor air with cooler outdoor air in minutes.
- Removes indoor odors from cooking, pets, or cleaning products.
- Uses a fraction of the electricity of central air conditioning.
- Extends the life of your air conditioning system by reducing run times.
- Improves ventilation and reduces pollutants in your living space.
