The HV-1000 has been installed in tens of
thousands of homes across America. Giving smart homeowners a fast return
on their investment with money saved from lower utility bills. The HV
requires no maintenance, is quiet and fits into standard 16" or 24" on-center
joists. The twin high speed fan motors powering the HV were designed to
dissipate heat and move air in the toughest of applications. The HV1000-R
features a remote control operation.
The HV series of
whole house fans are insulated when not in use, its automatic insulated doors form an air tight seal between your attic and living space. There is no other unit available that boasts these levels of insulation and protection.

Whole House Fan Sizing Chart: Tamarack Whole House Fan Sizing Chart
Important Facts To Consider When Sizing A Whole House Fan:
If you have done any research on whole house fans you will see a lot of sites that recommend multiplying your homes total square footage by three and that will tell you what size whole house fan you would need in air flow (CFM). Yes, that formula will work, but it is very inefficient and many times impractical. In the case of whole house ventilation for cooling purposes, bigger is not necessarily better.
In order for the whole house fan to operate efficiently and effectively, consider the below variables:
1. Fan size
3. Intake air source
4. Attic exhaust vent requirements
5. Climate differentials and peak summertime temperatures
Fan Size:
The bigger the fan the faster it will cool your
home? Not necessarily. After the first few air exchanges, the value of having a large air flow is diminished. Yes, the air flowing into your
home will be cooler, but your house will not. A home that has been in a hot environment throughout the day actually stores and retains heat. The effects of the heat permeates throughout the entire home, especially in the attic. Cooling the home is best accomplished by having a constant and continuous flow of cooler air over a longer period of time, to effectively dissipate the stored heat.A lower flow of cool air is very effective at removing the stored heat in your home.
Intake Air Source & Exhaust Requirements:
In order for cooler outside air to enter the home you must open a minimum amount of windows or doors to allow the cooler air
to flow into your home. On the same note and this is very important, you must have an adequate amount of exhaust vents to allow the air pulled into your home to exhaust the warm air outside. A good rule of thumb to use is for
every 1000 cfm of airflow, you need 1.3 square feet of unobstructed roof venting or 1.33 sq. ft. of net free venting.
Net Free Area Defined: For every 750 cfm of airflow, it is recommended that there be a minimum of 1.33 sq. ft. of attic venting, i.e. roof vents, gable vents, sofit vents, ridge vent. This will allow the air flow of the fan's exhaust air into the attic the ability to flow out of the home freely. To calculate your net free area: - Count and add up your total number of vents in feet. If your vent(s) are screened take approx. 1/2 away from your total.
For example: You have four 1 sq. ft vents, and they are screened. You would have a 4 sq ft gross of venting, however since the screens will block air flow, you would need to subtract
approximately 2 sq. ft of venting from your gross, giving you a 2 sq. ft net free area. Warranty: The unit comes standard with a 3 year limited warranty.
Climate Differentials & Peak Summertime
Temperatures:
A whole house fan works best when evening and outside temperatures are cooler than interior temperatures. Remember, a whole house fan brings in
the outside air. You would never run a whole house fan during the day when outside temperatures are at their highest. A whole house fan is not air conditioning, the air it brings into your home, is only as cool as the outside air temperature. Depending on what your average peak summertime temperatures are at, will determine what size whole house fan to purchase.
We have included a sizing chart below:
What A Whole House Fan Is Not: You may be concerned about
indoor air quality, and that is a growing concern among modern day tightly built homes. However, a whole house fan, is designed for one purpose - to remove
heat from the home. A whole house fan, should never be used for ventilating a tight home. Continuous Whole House Ventilation should be accomplished with a Heat Recovery Ventilator/Energy Recovery Ventilator HRV/ERV,
these devices exchange the air in a home at about .35 air exchanges per hour. They are designed to allow a balanced flow of air through the home, by allowing make up air into the home.
A properly sized and balanced whole house fan, is an effective way to cool your home and very efficient at reducing A/C costs which is associated with higher utility bills during the spring, fall and especially summer months. The whole house fans we have are the best in the industry, featuring easy installation, quiet operation, and insulated air tight sealed doors when the unit is not in operation.

HV1000-R - Dedicated Remote Operation. System uses a RF remote to operate. This system can be wired with a switch, however, when operating unit - you must either use the remote or switch - both controls cannot be used in conjunction with each other.
Homeowners can now quietly and efficiently reduce the indoor air temperature of their home, while improving air quality with the Tamarack Technologies HV1000 series of Whole House Fans. When the outside temp. drops below the indoor temperature, the HV1000 will draw cooler outside air, into the home. The hot air is drawn thorough the fan and up and out of the attic through exsisting attic and roof vents.
Each unit is rated to handle up to approximately 2000 sq ft. At 2000 sq. ft - one complete air exchange occurs every 16 minutes. For homes larger than 2000 sq. ft we recommend the HV1600 2 speed unit.
The motorized automatic insulated doors on the unit provide an air tight seal between the attic and living area when the unit is not in operation. The insulated doors are rated at R-22.
The unit runs off 120VAC 60Hz, 116 watts (2 fans at 58 watts), 6 watts (2 lift motors at 3 watts)
Air Flow Rate: 1000 CFM at 0.1" Static Pressure
Rough Opening: 14.5" wide x 22.5" long (back door covers requires 11" clearance when open)
Manufacturer Warranty: 3 Years
