How to Cool a Tiny House

Using 12v RV roof fans can be installed to help cool the inside of tiny house. Situating a tiny home in a shaded area along with installing one or two roof vent fans will help circulate air inside the small home. Placing one fan at the highest point in the tiny home will allow you to pull out any heat rising up, pulling in cooler air from the windows.
Having a second fan in a lower position can suck in cooler outside air speeding up the process, providing a constantly air flow through out the tiny home.
