Hi
your
LINK says "Endless Breeze is a high volume 12 volt fan with a twelve inch blade that operates at three speeds. Air movement of up to 900 CFM (cubic feet per minute)"
I wonder how that compares to some of these "normal" box type fans of similar size that are easily purchased here in Oz? Anyone have any idea of a comparison? I have 3 of these normal ones packed away so will try dig them out to see if any specs are available but doubt there will be.
Hey Michael, is yours very noisy when on high? You got to think that moving a lot of air at high volume would create a lot of noise.
Michelle, I think the ceiling fan idea would be good as it should draw hot air up and out, especially if its being pushed along by a high volume fan. Not sure if the volume of air being drawn out through one vent would create a noticable difference though? Maybe one for the EO experts on here.
I use a flyover (large silver tarp) when camped more than a few days and keep a gap of say 12 inches between it and the jayco swan roof. This breezeway does help keep it noticabley cooler inside by a 3 to 5 degrees (best guess, but will measure at xmas). It is very comfortable in the high heat with tarp over compared to my brothers hothouse camper without the tarp and other brothers who lays his tarp directly on the camper roof rather than support it
I am also thinking of using some of the thermashield type paint on the roof too. So with shade over the canvas and roof from the flyover and thermashield paint, using a fan (or 3) to move air I hope to be comfortable. Will depend on time, money etc if I get to paint it this year
Would be interested to hear how you go with the cooling set up you settle on.
Cheers Mick....
