Learn How to Cool a Denver Area Home
The trick (with home cooling) is to not let your home heat up in the first place! With proper ventilation, insulation, and shading, you can be comfortable using less energy. In our personal consultations, we help you prepare your home to be cooler in a step-by-step process:
- Ventilation for Attics, Doors & Windows – Let the cool night air in (and hot air out) with security/storm doors and windows with screens. We make and repair screens, and replace or restore existing wood windows. We also install roof, gable and soffit vents.
- Insulation for Ceilings & Walls – Proper insulation will protect your comfort from your hot roof and attic. East and west walls are heat gainers. We inject brick walls with foam, and make gable walls blown & batted for optimal wall insulation.
- Shading for Windows – We help you block the sun’s heat at your windows with exterior and interior sunscreens, awnings, window tinting, and shade trees.
- Power Cooling – If necessary, we can install whole house fans, evaporative coolers, and air conditioning units.

Summer Cooling Habits for a Denver Area Home
- Close windows during the day. You can’t cool a home with warmer air.
- Open windows at night. High and low openings work best when not windy.
- Close windows that are in direct sunlight. Crack open windows to let solar heat out.
- Run window & whole house fans at night. Hot air out = cool air in!
- Lower magnets for return air. Leave high returns open, returning hot air back.
- Keep the stairmaster down during the day, but up at night. Plan activities for the cooler parts of the home.
- Exercise your furnace fan 24/7, bringing cool air up. Clean & change the filter monthly.
