[QUOTE="bigfug, post: 1829002, member: 4864"] I have a gable vent, and soffits. When we roofed our house, I had 2 vents put in, both for a 1400 sq ft attic, my house is 1600 sq ft. Had to have the house roofed again, had a 3rd put in. Thermostats staggered, so one kicks in when attic temp is 120, one at 140, and one at 160. My house will stay cooler if I precool my house, and leave it low, for example, thermostat was set at 76 today, and stayed 78. When I had it set at 78, and programmed to cool to 76 around 3, I would come home to a house that is 80 and stay there till after sundrise. Every room in my house has a ceiling fan I leave running. The fact that it struggles so much, and runs so long is the reason I havent signed up for OG&E's smart hours. [/QUOTE]
