They make some really nice solar powered ones also. They have T-stats built in. That way you don't need to get the electrical power to your attic. I have installed several types. I'm an electrician and put them in on occasions....................Jon

70? Heck I'm 35 and cant stand crawling around in attics. Never a good time. The only time people want ceiling fans or attic fans installed is when its 100 degrees outside. Well guess what that attic is.......... As far as the solar attic fans that I've seen, they only have a thermostat on them. So if the attic temp doesn't reach say 90 deg they wont turn on. Not sure if that was was your question or not. Electric ones can come with a de-humidifier setting on em also. Some people like that..................Jon
