ATTIC FAN / WHOLE-HOUSE FAN
INOPERATIVE / AMISS:
The inspector cannot operate thermostatically
controlled attic fans since they are
automatically turned on at a preset temperature
within the attic. This is a situation whereby
the inspector notes that the fan could not
possibly work or that it may be incorrectly
wired, etc. Attic fans are quite inexpensive and
easy to install. Should a new one be necessary,
you should be able to find one at almost any
Building Supply Outlet. Generally they are not
worth repairing unless the repairs are simple
and inexpensive. Be sure to repair any
electrical deficiencies as soon as possible and
remember, do not work on any electrical
equipment without first disconnecting the
electrical supply to the device to be repaired.
Watch where you step in attics. You could easily
step through the ceiling and fall to the floor
below. Should you need assistance contact an
Electrical Contractor or a well trained Home
Repair and Maintenance Person. See your yellow
pages for a list of companies.
