Can you put two in an attic that is 2000 feet?

Yes, It would work within your attic. We would recommend that you use two and set it on a solid surface.

Assuming the attic is insulated pretty well & no taller than 8 ft., I would estimate each unit is good for about 300 sq. ft. Think in terms of the amount of heat coming off a 100 watt light bulb. It isn't hot but does provide a small steady source of heat. If you lose heat from a draft or uninsulated windows, then you will need more units. For the amount of space you have, I would look for an option that has a fan. 2,000 sq ft with an 8 ft. ceiling is 16,000 cubic feet to heat. That sounds unrealistic for a passive unit that relies on natural convection.

I don't know why you couldn't. One uses about the same energy as a 100 watt light bulb. You'll want to make sure you set them on something solid like a sheet of plywood not directly on the insulation as they do get warm.

I think it would work as I have my in a 5th wheel (36 long) and it works fine

It would work great if mounted in the attic and ducted, might be a little noisy otherwise as it moves a lot of air.

I think you can. I hear that if it's very cold they may hide in your attic until the thaw, but that's just what my pest control guy told me.

they are not enclosed.. i have installed in the attic as well and have had no problems.

No. You would have to extend it yourself somehow. I put this in a kitchen that has cathedral ceilings over at my mothers. It's spectacular! Every person that has seen it absolutely loves it. It took a few hours to put together and install but it wasn't all that hard. I don't know how far it hangs down... Maybe 4-6 feet. Not enough for a two story opening though. I hope that answers your question.

I wouldn't place this in a bare attic, bc of the fiberglass dust PLUS the heat. Why not hide it on a top shelf of a closet, and just use wire ties on a metal grill shelf to hold 2 large fans to move air across it? You can "build" a hide place with an up side down large boot box with slits.

My attic is 1000 sq ft. The twenty watt unit has made a significant in oir ability to cool our upstairs, we no longer feel heat radiating from our ceiling. If the surface area of your attic is 1700 sq ft i would install two attic fans

Only if there is a place for the exhaust (crawl space or attic might be possible)

I doubt it unless you have 2 X 6 studs you might be able to flush mount it and exhaust it into an attic with a 4 inch flexible dryer vent hose.

No it is made to be outside. It would not have the proper ventilation inside of an attic.

I ran mine on the outside of the house to some direct wire cameras. I used small clips to fasten it to the siding on the house. They are still working fine after being out therefor over two years. So they should be fine through the attic.

You can do either. But it depends on your attic spaces and its ventilation. My attic is open with no storage near the exhaust so it's vented into the attic. However, always follow your local codes. Also, this unit is quiet and I like the model.

Hi Katie,I don't think you're supposed to. Depends on your climate. I have two outside but one on a porch and one way under the eves on the house. Haven't had any problems. But..not winter here yet. At 20 below zero F, that's going to be tough. 90% is keeping them dry and out of direct sunlight. Keep them powered all the time in the winter (that's the plan) because they will generate a little heat. If the wind's not too bad they might survive.

Installed mine in the attic which was 16 feet off the ground. Pulled in more stations than antenna web indicated I would.

you can with a coupling (maybe even a short piece of 3 1/2" pyc)but the houses wont fit together air tight

I believe its ment to hang from ceiling to be away from the wall by at least 2 feet. I would recommend more than 2 ft

These are designed to go in an unfinished attic. There isn't a way to get them through a hole in a ceiling if you remove the can. They would not fold up and they were too high for me to pt the subfloor back over they without cutting away about 1 1/2" all the way around the bottom. I was only putting them over 3" cans so it worked for me. If I was doing it again I would buy IC rated cans and use led bulbs.
