That an awesome bonus of the evap unit's, because you have to open the house for them to work, it make just outside the house cool too, which in turn makes the inside feel a bit cooler too.

I have a probably 20+ year old evap on my roof and it will be replaced with a slightly bigger new evap unit that has a decent VSD on the fan motor. At the moment we have two speeds, Cat 2 Cyclone or Cat 5 Cyclone. When my girlfriend (now fiancee) moved in this time last year she complained about the temp in the house, but now prefers it to the freezer like conditions at her parents place.
