THERMAL MASS COOLING
Reality talk — what do many people do when they
come home after work and it’s really hot inside
their home, but the outside temperature has nicely
cooled down? Instead of turning on their A/C, many
people open up their windows and allow a nice
cross breeze to enter their home, which not only
feels good, but also cools the home down.
Tech talk — The “passive” cross breeze described
above becomes an “active” breeze for QuietCool
homeowners, and this is the key to thermal mass
cooling.
Passive breezes within a home will eventually cool
the ambient air to a comfortable level, but will not
move enough air to cool the mass within the home.
When correctly sized for any size home, a QuietCool
system will fully exchange the entire air volume of
a home 15-22 times per hour, or about one full air
exchange every 3 to 4 minutes
The “active” breeze that is created by a QuietCool
system is how QuietCool “works.” Mass “cooling”
results because the QuietCool system is removing
stale hot air and replacing it with fresh cool air; all
this occurring at a high rate of speed and volume,
15-22 times per hour.
Therefore, instead of recycling hot, stale ambient
air through a closed-loop air conditioning system,
the QuietCool system is exchanging hot, stale
ambient air with fresh, cool outside air, though an
open-loop whole house ventilation system… and at
a fraction of the cost of running an air conditioner.
A “cool mass” home does not reheat as much or
as quickly as a “hot mass” home. Within a day or
two of installing a QuietCool system, homeowners
are amazed when they come home after work… it
was 90 – 100 ++ degrees outside, and they walk
into a home that is… not 90 degrees, but maybe
74, 76 or 78 degrees.
The reason is because the mass of the home has
been cooled by the QuietCool system, and thus
did not reheat as rapidly throughout the day as a
typical home would. The initial reaction from new
QuietCool owners is one of amazement and is the
reason why so many QuietCool sales are made
through referrals.
