Default Install a 'coolmygarage'

Install a 'coolmygarage' (found on line) garage ceiling fan (under $500). It has a thermostat to go on and off as your attic heats up. It also has a fire break damper that actuates in case of fire. Add the blown in insulation over the garage, as there is no wall between garage attic and house attic. The garage ceiling fan will draw air through vents in your garage door, up into the garage attic and then they exhaust through the home roof vents. Installation is very easy and can be done yourself.
