Almost need to bring a small rake to get back nice.

I would guess that if U hire someone to install the foil they mess up a lot it and don't reset it.

Oh at 10am it's really hot up there later must be unbearable.

Someone suggested a sheet be laid down first or a board????

Oh and you need a mask!

I'm skipping the foil idea that I thought I would do later.

I'm working on a new type attic fan design that can push 1,000 cfm each.
one or two of those on a temperature driven on/off switch say at 75 degrees looks like an easier way to go.
It should cut the attic temp down 30-40 degrees.

The fan(s) can run off 110volt or solar.

1000 cfm and solar???
