Whole House Fan Rebates
Rebate Information
A whole house fan can help you lower your home cooling cost by reducing the need to run your central air conditioner. A whole house fan works by pulling cool outdoor air inside, and pushing warm indoor air outside. They also cost approximately 20% less to run than an air conditioner.
- REBATE - $50 per qualified Whole House Fan*
- * To qualify for the rebate, the home where the fan will be installed must have existing central air conditioning.
Whole House Fan and Air Conditioner Tips
For customers in mild climate zones, such as the coastal areas, a whole house fan can be an efficient cooling alternative during all but the hottest times of the day.
- If you have both a whole-house fan and a central air conditioner, you’ll get the most efficient cooling performance by alternating their use.
- Don’t run a whole-house fan and air conditioner at the same time, the fan will push the cooler, air-conditioned air out from the house, wasting your air-conditioning dollars.
- If your house has been closed during the day and hot air has built up, use your whole-house fan to remove the hot air first. Then, use your central air conditioner. If the outside air is relatively cool and dry, you may find that you don’t need to use your air conditioner.
- Even if you use your air conditioner during the day, consider running the whole-house fan at night when the outside air is cooler.
