In this episode of The Wise Attic Podcast - Attic expert, Tom Decker joins us to discuss the crucial differences between passive and active ventilation in your attic space.
Tom explains that passive ventilation is essentially an unobstructed opening that allows heat to escape without actively drawing it out. On the other hand, active ventilation uses mechanical systems, like solar attic fans, to control airflow based on temperature and humidity levels, ensuring efficient air exchanges.
Learn why most homes fail to achieve adequate ventilation with passive methods alone and how adding active ventilation can correct these issues, enhancing your home's comfort and energy efficiency.
