Abstract
A dwelling venting and cooling system that includes a set of side-by-side conduits wherein first and third conduits utilize a fan assembly that is actuated by wind power in order to vent hot air from an attic. The second conduit provides an electric fan that actuates the fan assemblies of the first and third conduits at times when wind is not sufficient to actuate the fan assemblies. The system further has attic air ducts that are in communication with vents in rooms within the dwelling in order to convey all hot air to the attic and out of the dwelling. In addition a cooling system that utilizes a water-to-air exchanger provides cool air into air ducts within the dwelling in order to replace the hot air with cool air.
