THE PROBLEM:
Leaky whole house fan
All whole house fan shutters leak air and are not insulated. The average whole house fan shutter has eight (8) square feet of un-insulated area. All the energy saved by the whole house fan when in use is lost in the summer months when the air conditioner is in use and when the furnace is in use in the winter months.
THE SOLUTION:
ShutterMate - Universal Model SM-3538
The new ShutterMate from U.S. Green Products solves this problem by overlapping and sealing the entire shutter area, saving the homeowner valuable energy dollars. It fits over 35 sizes of fan shutters installs in minutes from inside the room using magnetic closure. The ShutterMatte performs the same function as attic insulation R-10 value with a weather-strip gasket. You can even paint over the solid white to match over any decor. The ShutterMate comes with a 15-year manufacturer's warranty. Plus...
The ShutterMate complies to these Green Building Standards:
ENERGY STAR Home Sealing Program
NAHB National Green Building Standard
ENERGY STAR Thermal Bypass Requirements
USGBC-LEED for Homes Program
