We use whole house fan, no A/C

Run fan all night.
Run fan in morning till inside temp equals outside temp.
Shut off fan, close doors and all curtains in house.

In late afternoon when inside temp equals outside temp.
Open all doors and windows.
Two bedrooms, living room and kitchen have six foot sliding doors. Rest of rooms all have a crank out from the bottom window.

Turn on house fan. Fan is sized for house twice as big.
All curtains blow straight in.

Fresh air is exchanged in less than 1 min through whole house.
Inside temp drops even with out side temp till morning.

Sample
7:00 o’clock in morning 60 F inside and out.
2:00 in afternoon outside temp 90 inside 70.
5:00 in afternoon outside 85 inside 80 to 85.
Most of the time, at this time, 5 degrees is no longer an issue, so we opt for the fresh, fast moving air, even though it is still hotter outside and turn on the fan.
