[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 2207301, member: 5412"] I have three of them in my house/barn. one on each side of the house, and one in the barn. They mount in the gable of the house, require a gravity vent louver and have a controller that operates from temperature and humidity. They run in the winter sometimes, but its for a purpose. Moving air won't produce mold. Even though its 100% humidity while its raining, the moving air will prevent it from forming.. Mine is set at 120 degrees for heat. When its mid summer, your attic temps may reach 160 degrees if its not vented. We have 10" of insulation in the ceiling and 6" in the walls, with 12 attic vents along the roof. The gable fan still kicks on at the set temperature as early as 10am. I do instrument calibrations for a living so I'm confident in these results and have checked them.
