Are you ready to tackle the scorching Australian heatwave this summer?

According to the Bureau of Meteorology (BOM), Australia could be in for a summer of severe heat.

As summer approaches, it’s crucial to be well-prepared for the soaring temperatures and relentless heat waves that can turn your living space into an oven. While traditional fans like whirlybirds and conventional extraction fans are options, it’s essential to be aware of their limitations, which we will discuss in detail below.

 

The Problem with Whirlybirds and Conventional Heat Extraction Fans

 

1. Inadequate Ventilation

Whirlybirds and traditional heat extraction fans, despite their widespread use, often struggle to provide adequate ventilation in the face of an Australian heatwave. These systems are designed to rely on passive wind movement to expel hot air from your roof space. However, during stifling heatwaves, the breeze can be scarce, leaving your home feeling like an oven.

 

2. Slow Heat Extraction

One of the glaring flaws of whirlybirds and conventional extractor fans is their sluggish heat extraction rate. When temperatures soar during a heatwave, these extractor fans can’t keep up with the rapid buildup of heat in your attic or roof space. This trapped heat then penetrates down into the living areas of your home. As a result, your living spaces remain uncomfortably warm, making it challenging to escape the oppressive heat.

 

3. Dependent on External Factors

Traditional extractor fans, while they can extract enough air, have their drawbacks. For one, they are electric-powered, which can lead to high energy costs, potentially doubling your expenses during the scorching heat of summer.

Whirlybirds, on the other hand, are highly dependent on external conditions such as wind direction and intensity. When there’s little to no wind, these fans are far less effective at removing hot, stale air. This dependence on weather conditions can leave you at the mercy of Mother Nature’s whims precisely when you need relief the most.

 

4. Maintenance Challenges

Whirlybirds, in particular, can pose maintenance challenges. They have moving parts that can wear out over time, potentially leading to noise issues or even failure. Periodic maintenance is necessary to ensure they continue to function correctly, adding to the ongoing cost of using these systems.
