I put the solar powers attic fan from Solar Guys in my CYV a few years ago to help bring the attic temps down. I feel that it is doing a good job circulating the air in the garage and lowering the temps there. I also insulated my garage doors myself. That has definitely dropped the temps in my garage during the summer months. It was like an oven in there before, now much more comfortable since we have the washer and dryer there. My garage doors are west facing and they were like furnaces. I also have a fan that I installed in the peak of my garage in Connecticut with a thermostat set at 120. That fan starts around 10-11 AM during the summer months and stops around 7-8PM at night.
