American Home Consulting Services Inc. in Mesa, Arizona has Announced the Development and Market Release of the GF-14 Garage Fan and Attic Cooler, a Garage Vent System

In hot climates the radiant heat trapped in a garage raises the temperature at least 20 degrees or higher than the outside ambient air temperature. Also, the attic above is as much as 40 to 60 degrees higher than the outside temperature. The attic acts as a super-large radiant heater forcing the air conditioner to work harder. Anything you can do to move this super-heated air out of the attic will lower the air conditioner load, and reduce energy consumption.

(PRWEB) July 15, 2005 -- In hot climates the radiant heat trapped in a garage raises the temperature at least 20 degrees or higher than the outside ambient air temperature. Also, the attic above is as much as 40 to 60 degrees higher than the outside temperature. The attic acts as a super-large radiant heater forcing the air conditioner to work harder. Anything you can do to move this super-heated air out of the attic will lower the air conditioner load, and reduce energy consumption.

Also according to Ray Baxter, president and licensed building inspector, garages are used to store all sorts of noxious substances -- paints, gasoline, volatile cleaners etc. And carbon monoxide from vehicles is trapped inside as well. The fumes from these types of residual substances should not be allowed to move into the house. All too often the pressure in the house is lower than the pressure in the garage and the fumes are drawn into the house through cracks and holes or through the door, essentially seeping into the house. The GF-14 refreshes the garage with clean outside air while lowering temperatures in the garage and attic.

The GF-14 Garage Fan and Attic Cooler is designed to mount in the ceiling of the garage, venting to the attic. Properly-sized intake vents are mounted in the garage door taking in outside ambient air. The GF-14 moves 1350 cubic feet per minute, enough air to pressurize a typical attic relative to the house forcing the superheated attic air out the attic vents, which may include gable vents, ridge vents, dormer vents, whirly vents, etc. An adjustable thermostat allows homeowners to decide when the GF-14 should activate for their particular climate or season.

In compliance with local building codes, garages have 5/8 inch fire-rated drywall and a self-closing fire-rated entry door. The UL-listed GF-14 has a fire damper that automatically closes in the event of a garage fire keeping the flames out of the attic. And the self lubricating, continuous duty fan motor stops so it doesnt feed a garage fire with air.

The feedback from dozens of installed systems is very promising states Mr. Baxter. Our customers are very happy, reporting back to us with gratitude that the system is working as intended. Customers are experiencing cooler garages and attics without any roof penetrations. The product sells for an installed price of $495.00 which makes it very affordable. The company has opened a manufacturing facility able to produce 100s of the GF- 14s per month and is establishing distributors and dealers for its new product.

The company is also working on variations of the GF-14 which will accommodate flat-roofed garages with similar benefits. They can be reached directly at 480-217-8734, or via website at www.CoolMyGarage.com or by e-mail ahcsinc@cox.net.
