Attic Ventilation(Soffit Vent)

Soffit VentSoffit Vent

Soffit Vents are needed to allow cool air to flow into the attic space while still keeping out insects

Attic Ventilation(Ridge Vent)

Ridge VentRidge Vent

Ridge Vents at the peak of the roof discharge the air entering through soffit vents or frieze block vents, and allow airflow through the attic

Attic Ventilation(Gable Vent)

Gable VentGable Vent

Gable vents discharge the air from soffit vents or frieze block vents to create airflow through the attic

Attic Ventilation(Roof Turbine)

Roof Turbin

e

Roof Turbin

e

Roof Turbines have a fan that spins to suck hot air out of the attic space and discharge it, replacing gable or ridge vents

Front End LoaderDefinition: It is a construction vehicle that is primarily used to load and transport materials onto or into another vehicle or place. It differs from a bulldozer in that it is used to pick up material rather than merely push it.

Gypsum BoardDefinition: An interior facing panel consisting of a gypsum core sandwiched between paper faces

Heat Pump(Compressor/evaporator)

Compressor/evaporator

Compressor/evaporator

The compressor/ condenser extracts heat from the cool air outside by moving the air across coils that change the temperature of the refrigerant

Heat Pump

• Advantage: Heat Pumps increase heating efficiency by a factor of 3

• Disadvantage: Cooling ducts for heat pumps must be larger because of a larger volume of air

Heat Pump(Air Handling Unit)

The Air Handling Unit contains filters, heating/cooling coils, and blowers to clean, regulate, and circulate the desired temperature throughout a house

Insulation(Batt/Blanket)

The purpose of insulation is to to prevent the passage of heat from penetrating the wall of a house and keep the inside heat from escaping to the outside, while keeping the inhabitants comfortable and saving them money on energy costs
