Whole House Fan Installation in Selma, CA
Selma homes bake all afternoon and cool off after dark. A whole house fan captures that free cooling instead of wasting it.

Whole House Fan Installation for Selma Homes
Selma sits in the heart of raisin country, and summer afternoons here are relentless. Jack Surabian Electric installs whole house fans throughout Selma, from the older neighborhoods near downtown and Highland Avenue to the newer subdivisions on the north and east sides.
The physics are simple. Your attic reaches 130 to 150 degrees on a Selma July afternoon and holds that heat well past sunset, radiating it down through the ceiling. A whole house fan exhausts that trapped attic air while drawing cool evening air through the living space.
The practical effect is that your air conditioner stops fighting a hot ceiling all night. Homeowners commonly report that the AC runs noticeably less between dusk and morning, and that the upstairs or back bedrooms stop being the hottest rooms in the house.

Sizing and Wiring a Whole House Fan in Selma
We measure the conditioned space and select a CFM rating that will actually turn the air over, then confirm the attic can exhaust it. Skipping the venting math is the single most common reason a whole house fan underperforms.
Mounting location matters as much as size. A central hallway typically works best for single-story Selma homes, while two-story homes get the unit upstairs where the heat collects.
The electrical work is a dedicated, correctly sized circuit with a listed control and a disconnect where the manufacturer calls for one. We label the panel, pull the permit when required, and test the complete cycle with you before wrapping up.
