The air flow in my home has me completely stumped.
I just can’t figure it out at all.
It makes no difference whether it is winter or fall, the house just is unable to maintain any kind of even temperature. I have attempted to redirect the HVAC flow by closing and opening vents throughout the house. But, nothing works as there are cold spots and hot spots everywhere. Replacing the HVAC system is out of the question as we are only about halfway through the lifespan of our current one. So, I need to come up with some kind of solution that will suffice until we are able to replace our current HVAC with ductless technology. I roamed the internet in an attempt to find something that will suffice. There are a myriad of gimmicks and assorted plug and play devices which look dubious at best. I nearly gave up and just accepted the situation as it is. But then it hit me. I was waking up and in that foggy space between awake and dreaming. Suddenly, a memory came floating back to me. When I was a kid, my family visited an old motel sitting on a beautiful lake. The air conditioning in the motel was a window unit and weak at best. But, they had these little fans in the walls. The fans pulled cooler air to adjacent rooms that didn’t get much air flow from the a/c. I realized that was the answer I had been looking for. The room to room ventilators were easy to find. I was pleased by the fact that I would be able to put them in myself. They go right into the wall of an adjoining room. They are able to equalize temperature by redirecting air flow.
