Re: [mh] Temperature Controlled Whole House Fan

[JimMH <jsk...@sb...>]

I would like to automate my whole house fan but I have a couple issues ...

1.  How do people let air into the house?  This normally requires at least a
couple open windows.  But I don't want to leave the open all day or night. 
I usually run the fan at night when it cools down and then shut down the fan
and close the windows in the morning.  The days can get quite warm so I want
the windows shut then.  I have casement windows so could add some gear
motors to a couple windows but that makes the project more complex -
especially getting the control signals to the motors.

2.  I live in the midwest and humidity is an issue that must be factored in. 
If the dew point isn't below 65 (preferably 60) there isn't much point in
ventilation.  Not a real problem as that is easy enough to do.  It's just
that no one in this thread has mentioned it.  Apparenlty humidity isn't an
issue for others?
