[QUOTE="p238shooter, post: 2686216, member: 24583"] As for the attic plenum to the bedrooms, I would think even a small loss through the insulation might negate much heating if your attic has a large surface area. At my airport hangar before installing ceiling fans, I used a floor standing fan tilted upward at about 45' to "mix" the cooler air from the floor area and blowing it into the warmer toward the ceiling. That circulation worked well for an open area. I used another fan on low blowing that warmed air down the hallway toward a bed room ("L" shaped apartment in a corner,) and did not use the additional noisy heat/cool unit in that small area. We use the same fan blowing down the hall for cooling in the summer most of the time when we are spending the night. That might be an easy temporary set up for you to consider to use off an extension cord from your generator. [/QUOTE]
