Here is what I am trying to do. I have removed the sheetrock and some wood to have a path to pull air from under the house.
Then I made a wood cover and mounted the fan and ducting to it.
Next I will run the 10" insulated flex ducting to the intake side of the room. Going to have to build a plenum out of cardboard. I'll follow with some more pics as I get there.
Some fresh pics of the girls...

I received some unwanted news today. I was reviewing my latest energy bill (always painful), and noticed something. My energy provider (Pacific Graft & Extortion) charges per kwh, based on a 5 tier system. Lowest kwh is your baseline, and as you exceed your baseline, the kwh prices go up for every tier. Well, the bulk of my energy usage occurs in the 5th tier (300% over baseline), which, up until last month, was $.41 per kwh. So now I see that all 5 tiers have gone up in kwh rates, with the 5th tier now being $.49 per kwh! For 2404 kwh, my bill was $1033!

if it's small, it isn't using much energy anyway....

OUCH!!!!!!! You need to offset your usage, solar panels or a wind turbine, quick payback since you use so much : )

looked into solar, but I am not sure at this point that I will be able to keep the house....
If your on a tier system then its based upon the amount of people in your household. I think you may have to up that amount, to help cut that bill down. My power is based that same way. They had me with less people in my house then I really had. Once I did the adjustment, my bill dropped down on an average 25-30%. Just a thought..

This is from PG&E's Baseline Quantity rate manual:
"Though baseline quantities vary by territory, season and customers' heating sources, baseline rates are the same for all residential customers on the same rate schedule - regardless of the size of individual homes and number of occupants."
Apparently, I am stuck with the current baseline allowance.....

Thanks for stopping by and voting. I cant believe the message from the power co. That such BS. Gotta plan? maybe lower wattage lights on movers? Thats a hard call brother.
