Can you point me to anything? I'd love to learn more about that. I'm not sure how that would work when the outside air is absolutely hotter than desired. We still do things like airflow through attics, because that's above the ceiling insulation and the outside air often is cooler than attic air.
- saagarjha 6y agoWell, I should provide a disclaimer that I’m only really aware of California buildings that do this, which might answer the “how does this work in general” question :P
- jdmichal 6y agoAh, yea. There's definitely climates in California where that would work. I'm in Tampa Bay, and during the summer there's very few times when you would want outside air coming in. Even if it's OK temperature-wise, humidity is always there. I've open windows to take advantage of cool air during storms, but I also know I have an A/C that will act as a full-house dehumidifier.
