In Singapore, I was told, the Government came out with this idea of reducing the building temperature by using morning air.
By doing so the cost to cool the building using air condition will be reduced by at least 20%.
The idea was to install air intake fan and timed as such the cool morning air be suck into the building before working hours starts.
These cool morning air are considered fresh with lot of oxygen molecules in them.
Once the air is pump into the building, it will reduce the temperature by a few degrees.
What if we apply the same idea to our BH?
Get a few air intake fan and install at least one per floor.
Use a digital timer to activate them from say 4 am till 6:30am.
Make sure the fan you select is quite and able to last long.
Try not to disturb those precious birds.
I am sure this idea is not new but to those whose BH are pretty high in its temperature try to think about this simple idea.
The two BHs which I completed in Kerling and Bukit Tinggi were with the fan.
What I did was to place the fan outside on the window frame and use a flexible pipe to deliver the cool air via the ventilation hole of the building.
It works pretty well.
