there are a lot better ways to cool attic than installing solar fans and cheaper. You can buy an attic roof fan from Home depot for around 100 dollars and have a handy man or roofer install it
also vents in garage door would be very helpfull to have a good air flow thru the garage and into the attic thru a vent in the garage ceiling |
as has been mentioned before, the ceiling vents may have insurance implications, because they affect the integrity of the fire rated ceiling in the garage. Just sayin

Here is a GREAT article advising against using either solar or powered attic ventilators (not to be confused with a whole house attic fan).

Here is another interesting article.....
Don't Let Your Attic Suck | The ASHI Reporter | Inspection News & Views from the American Society of Home Inspectors This is a controversial subject, with folks feeling strongly on both sides. I just suggest doing your homework. I have nothing to gain either way of course, but it is a question I get asked about on a regular basis. Frank |
