My neighbor had the garage ceiling attic fan installed along with garage door vents, he paid $300 and gave me the guys card and said he has done many. Instead I just had the horizontal screen door sliders installed for $850 on my 12' garage door, I figured that would be even better yet. Also, my wife is out there a lot since the W/D is in the garage.

If you're going to be working in the garage why have the door down, this way it's the same temperature as outside and I don't have to worry about bugs, snakes or gators. I had one neighbor already find a rattlesnake in his garage. I also leave the attic stairs pulled down about a foot and I can feel a good breeze going through. Since this has happened we have raised our inside thermostat a degree.
