Our whole-house fan options are truly wide-ranging, almost to the point of being confusing, which is why we perform site assessments before making any recommendations.

Our Unique Approach to Whole-House Fan Installation

We view the installation of a whole-house fan as more than a straightforward home improvement project. It's a chance, in our eyes, to radically change how a person lives in their space, making it much more comfortable and cooling and, on top of that, to save a significant chunk of change when it comes to energy costs. The reason we can say all this with such confidence is that our company has about 15 years of experience assessing residences—from the Van Buren House to houses across the Midwest. We have seen what works, what doesn't, and why. Our approach begins with an assessment that takes into account not just the physical home but also the local climate, existing insulation, and the number of people who occupy the space.

In contrast to many installers who adopt a uniform approach, we understand that every house has its own unique challenges and opportunities. Our experienced technicians use the latest technology and some innovative tricks to get your installation past the common roadblocks that can make a whole-house installation difficult. For one thing, we use advanced thermal imaging to figure out where heat is coming into the house and where we should put the fans to make the whole thing work best. We also have methods (ahem, don't tell too many people) for making the fans run much quieter than they do in conventional setups. And then we get to the business of making sure the fan housing is as airtight as possible, which is a key thing if you want your energy bills to stay low while keeping your house comfortable.

We are committed to giving our clients not just excellent installations but also comprehensive education about their new whole-house fan systems. Our technicians train clients to use their new systems optimally, and they cover a lot of ground during the training. They go over basic operation and patterns of optimal use, as well as maintenance, energy-saving strategies, and troubleshooting. Our clients are certainly not left hanging. We would never allow ourselves to leave a fan system in an untrained, unsupported, or potentially nonfunctional state. We refine our installation technique so that it is state-of-the-art and up-to-date with the latest advances in whole-house fan technology. We do this in the service of our clients, who are the real stakeholders in our not-for-profit drive for fan system efficiency.

Tailored Whole-House Fan Installation for Every Need

If you are a homeowner wishing to improve your house's ventilation and energy efficiency, then you might consider a whole-house fan. These powerful systems are designed to cool your entire home by drawing in fresh air from outside and expelling hot air through the attic. We know that not every house is the same, and not every fan installation is the same. That's why we have tailored our whole-house fan installation process to the needs of you and your home. When you partner with us, our team of expert technicians will assess your house's layout and size, your existing ventilation system, and any other number of factors that will help us determine the perfect placement and size of the fan for your home.

We don't just help with picking out the perfect fan for the location. We think about the noise, the energy use, and the looks of the installation. These actually matter a lot when considering the overall efficiency of your whole-house fan system. The combination of our smart installation and a good fan selected for the right space should be able to satisfy all those issues and give you maximum comfort and convenience. Even so, it's worth mentioning that aesthetic considerations really do make a difference. Whether a fan is a "barely noticeable" low-profile model or a smart tech-integrated model that can "serve as a focal point," it has to look good while doing its job.

A benefits-customized installation guarantees that we obtain what is necessary to meet the conditions and the efficiency required. And it is not even all about efficiency. Whole-house fans are great for health. They take out a lot of indoor air pollutants. That makes the air healthier for your family to breathe. And the benefit part? If you work it out, you stand to save a whole lot. There are estimates of as high as 50-90% savings. And if you were to go into the attic, you probably wouldn’t see any fans there. And that’s because a whole-house fan is designed to work best when it’s not working. And when it is working, it’s working with the house, pulling air through when the system is engaged.

Testimonials

Jim W.

For over three decades, I have called Las Vegas home, and in that time, I have never met a more dependable roofing contractor. When the roof of my aged mother's home needed urgent repairs, I was, to say the least, concerned about the process of finding trustworthy professionals to do the job. Yet, Las Vegas Roofing Company turned out to be just the right fit. From start to finish—without any express or implied warranty—they took care of my mother and her roofing needs with extreme care and patience. These guys are the kind of trustworthy professionals that you pray to find when you have an urgent roofing need.

As a property manager responsible for a large apartment complex, I have had to interact with many roofing companies. Standing above them all is Las Vegas Roofing. They approached our commercial roofing job with awesome skill and coordination. They finished ahead of schedule and under budget. I have never seen such vigor and enthusiasm in a work crew. They must be well led; there is always evidence of good leadership when you see a construction crew working like this one did. If there is any kind of roof on our property in the future that needs fixing or if there is any new kind of roofing job, we will definitely use Las Vegas Roofing.

Romas Family

When it was finally necessary to change the roof on our family residence, we were presented with a plethora of alternatives. Las Vegas Roofing truly simplified this process for us. A representative of the company took us through the many choices—each one a viable option, but some better suited to our home than others. We settled on a choice of color and texture. The installation team was prompt and worked well together. They respected our property and left the job site cleaner than they found it. The most spectacular part of the job was that they took extra care to ensure that the rose bushes in front of our house were not damaged—a necessity since those roses are our pride and joy. The new roof looks great, and I have no doubt that it will perform well even under the harshest conditions that the Vegas sun can dish out.

As an architect, I have very particular standards for construction work on my own home. Las Vegas Roofing met and surpassed my expectations. Their understanding of state-of-the-art roofing technology impressed me. They executed my design for a modern, energy-efficient roof flawlessly. Every detail reflected the crew's skill, from the precision of the installation to the immaculate cleanup. They were able to smooth over several last-minute design changes without any hitch. The roof is both functional and beautiful. I've recommended Las Vegas Roofing to clients already, and I will continue to do so.

I am very impressed with the work done by Las Vegas Roofing. When a sudden leak developed during a rare desert downpour, they were at my house within a few hours. They quickly found the problem and had it fixed in short order. Their efficiency was remarkable. They explained everything to me in "normal people" terms and kept me up to date every step of the way. I already have recommended them to my neighbors and will call them again if I have any roofing needs.

The HVAC Las Vegas Difference in Whole-House Fan Installation

Expertise in Desert Climate Solutions

HVAC Las Vegas does what it does best: whole-house fan installation. In the desert climate of Las Vegas, homeowners face some unique challenges concerning extreme heat and bone-dry conditions. For those reasons, it is absolutely critical that the team understand the specific demands the environment places on a cooling system. Once that knowledge is secured, it can move on to the selection and installation of equipment that meets the type of performance requirements that the average assembly in a normal environment would not.

Energy-Efficient Cooling Alternative

At our company, we focus on providing not only whole-house fan installations but also something that is sorely lacking in today’s HVAC industry: homeowner education. When we sell units, we explain both how the whole-house fan works and also why it is a more cost-effective, energy-saving option compared to central air conditioning. And, since the whole-house fan is a complementary system to serve alongside an existing air conditioning unit, it makes even more sense as a solution for Las Vegas homeowners.

Customized Installation Process

Whole-house fan installations are personalized at HVAC Las Vegas. They take into account the unique layout of your home, its insulation, and its ventilation to determine the perfect fan size and placement for your situation. Fan experts then ensure the whole-house fan is integrated perfectly with your home's structure and is sealing it so effectively that the only warm air coming into your house is from the fan itself.

Comprehensive After-Installation Support

After the installation, our dedication to customer satisfaction doesn't stop—it extends well beyond that. Here at HVAC Las Vegas, we don't just drop off the fan and say, "Good luck." We provide detailed, step-by-step instructions on how to use and care for your whole-house fan so that it runs like a well-oiled machine for you, without interruption, year in and year out.

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is a whole-house fan

A fan that cools a house as a whole is not too common, but it is remarkably effective when used properly. It draws the hot air out of the house and replaces it with cooler outside air. The fan itself, as a whole-house fan, is not located on the outside of the house but is, instead, in the attic, where it can exhaust the hottest air from the inside of the house. And while the fan may cool the house as a whole, it cannot do so in a very effective way unless the windows are opened to allow fresh air to come inside.

How much does a whole-house fan installation typically cost

A whole-house fan lets you take advantage of cool evening air. It pulls outdoor air through open windows, cooling down the house as it does so. To operate a whole-house fan, though, you need to have the following: adequate amounts of air to draw into your house, sufficient amounts of air to exhaust from your house, and a comfortable space in which to "live" outdoors while your whole-house fan is working. When weather conditions outdoors make this type of fan impractical, you can cool your home with a heat pump, an air conditioner, or by doing without either of those two systems and cooling your house in different ways.

Are whole-house fans energy efficient

Compared to mainstream air conditioning systems, whole-house fans are energy-efficient. They use much less electricity, generally requiring only 200-700 watts. By contrast, central air conditioning can consume 3,500 watts or more. And though these fans work best when the temperature outside is significantly lower than that inside, they can cut "cooling costs" by as much as 90%. Ventilation, both natural and fan-aided, is key to making even the most minimalistic sense of a summer home feel cool enough that you want to lounge indoors. Fans of any type are cool in more ways than one.

What size whole-house fan do I need for my home

Choosing the best size for a whole-house fan means considering the square footage and the height of the ceilings in your home. Professionals recommend the simplest calculation: figure the cubic content of your living space, then select a fan that can move 2 to 3 times that volume of air in 1 minute. Of course, this is also influenced by other factors, like how well the house is insulated and the layout of the space to be ventilated. In any case, your basic choice of fan size will have a direct effect on the fan's performance. "If it’s too small, it won’t work well; if it’s too big, it’ll work too well, and probably cost too much," seems to be the gist of it.

Where is the best location to install a whole-house fan

The best place to install a whole-house fan is in the ceiling of a central hallway or living area, directly below the attic. That ensures the fan will work with the air it has to work with—you want a whole-house fan to move “whole house” amounts of air, after all. And to do that, essentially, it needs to be in the middle of the house so the air can get to the fan from about anywhere in the house. Proper placement in the context of using the fan this way is crucial and really makes the difference between the fan being a serious tool and not much more than a loud portable air conditioner working at half capacity.

How difficult is it to install a whole-house fan

Putting in a whole-house fan can be a tough job and usually needs either DIY skills at an intermediate to advanced level or professional help. It requires cutting a hole in the ceiling that can be 28 inches square or larger. Then you have to make certain that the attic is well-ventilated, as the fan will pull air from the attic into the living space. Otherwise, the fan is just a very expensive way to move air around your house. Most serious DIYers and the HVAC professionals they hire seem to agree on one thing: This job is tough enough that it's worth paying a pro to do it if you can't handle the considerable skill and effort it requires.

When is the best time to use a whole-house fan

The most effective time for a whole-house fan to work is in the evening and nighttime when the outside temperature is cooler than the inside temperature. These fans operate best in dry climates with a significant drop in temperature between day and night. In many localities, you can use the whole-house fan from late spring to early fall, and in most situations, the best time to use the fan is from sunset to sunrise when the cool air can take the place of the heat that has built up during the day.

What maintenance is required for a whole-house fan

A fan for an entire house requires annual maintenance, which includes cleaning the blades, checking the moving parts, and inspecting the electrical connections. The motor and bearings should stay clean and dry. The louvers should operate smoothly with no obstructions. If something is wrong, you want to know before hot weather arrives. Most whole-house fans are not that complex; however, a knowledgeable person, whether an inspector or you, should look over the system every few years to ensure proper operation.

Can a whole-house fan be used with air conditioning

Air conditioning systems can work in tandem with whole-house fans, but they should not be used at the same time. When you're using a whole-house fan, it obviously makes no sense to have the air conditioning work in conjunction with it. In fact, the A/C will work "harder" if you're employing a whole-house fan at the same time. A/C reduces temperatures and eliminates humidity. A fan moves air around. "Excellent".
