An attic’s temperature is affected by the sun, roof materials and color, and insulation, among other things. The attic’s ventilation system, including ridge and soffit vents and static or power exhaust fans, can help maintain an appropriate attic space temperature.

Attic Heat Control Guide

Keeping an attic properly ventilated is one of the best ways to lower home energy bills and improve indoor comfort, but there are many other issues that need to be addressed for your attic to perform as it should. These include addressing air leaks, ensuring adequate insulation, and conducting regular inspections for signs of critter activity and proper vent routing.

The attic is where a good portion of your energy bill is spent during the summer, but many homeowners don’t know how to keep it cool and prevent excessive heat transfer into the living areas below. Having the right attic fan, combined with an appropriate amount of attic insulation and properly routed soffit vents can significantly lower your cooling bills during the summer. Additionally, having the right attic insulation can increase the life of your roof and prevent moisture problems such as mold or mildew. The attic is also a great place to install a radiant barrier, as it will reflect the sun’s heat, and thus prevent excessive heat gain.
