In Florida, attic heat is extreme; especially during the 6 to 8 months of the air conditioning season. Documented attic temperatures are commonly 130 to 150 degrees or more. Unfortunately, in most Florida homes, the air conditioning ducts are in the attic. Hot attics needlessly cause excessively high electric bills. With Solar-Cool’s high volume exhaust, attic temperatures are reduced up to 30 degrees. That guarantees lower electric bills, and will extend the life of most roofs by 5 extra years. (Value $1000/yr). Solar-Cool’s entire rugged commercial quality equipment is warranted for 25 years. Solar-Cool has been tested and exceeds even Miami-Dade hurricane requirements. Solar-Cool is simply the Best Quality & Best Value available. Guaranteed leak-free installation is available. |
