A whole house fan is a great way to bring cool night air into your home and save on air conditioning. These fans are designed to move large amounts of air and in order for them to work effectively they must be properly sized for the house. In order to purchase the proper size fan; multiply the square footage of the living area of the home and multiply by 3 this will give you the cfm of the fan.  This calculation will work as long as you have 8 foot ceilings.

Another important component is the roof must have proper ventilation to push out the hot air from the home and attic.  Gable vents, roof vents and ridge vents all will allow the hot air to escape when using a whole house fan. For every 750 cfm you need 1square foot of uninterrupted venting.

Laminate floor is very popular with homeowners. It is durable and easy to install. One problem many of us have is that the finish becomes hazy over time. This is usually caused by a residue that is left behind when using some cleaning products. I have actually examined the haze up close and it is a film that is left behind.  To remove it….do not use anything abrasive and most cleaning products will make it worse. The floor may look good immediately after using a cleaning product but once it dries it is hazy once again. The best product to remove the haze is Krud Kutter. Use full strength on a cotton cloth and you can see the sticky substance being removed. By the way Krud Kutter also removes scuff marks.
