@TechConnectify The point of making an attic include d into the conditioned space isn’t to reduce the relatively minimal AC losses, it’s to deal with the condensation that results when an attic that reaches 150F and 80% humidity reaches an interior space conditioned to 75F or so. Your solution doesn’t address the fundamental problem we deal with in the South where we have night-time temperatures higher than desirable, high humidity, and no basements.
