Island Cooling

Is it hotter in your home than on your lanai? QuietCool is an energy-efficient cooling system that works by drawing hot air out of the house and pulling fresh air into the living space, making it a perfect fit for Hawaii's lifestyle and local home construction. Island Cooling is run by brothers Ivan and Al Whitworth.

With our warm sunshine and cool trade winds, Hawaii's beautiful climate is moderated by the temperature of the surrounding ocean. In most of the state the range between the coldest and warmest months averages less than 10° F difference. In the leeward areas, temperatures in the low 90's may be reached on several days during the year, but temperatures higher than these are unusual.

When we leave our homes for the day, the air heats up and stagnates. This hot air rises and expands, making the home uncomfortable and preventing cooler air from entering. During hotter days, in-home temperatures can reach 100 plus degrees. Hot expanding air also accounts for the difficulty in using small fans to blow cool air into the home as these fans lack the volume of air movement needed to rid the home of heat.

Looking for that edge to your listing or project? Hawaii's indoor/ outdoor lifestyle is a big part of what makes our islands unique. The values and features of QuietCool include equipment that is maintenance free, compatible with energy efficient living and an open-air lifestyle. We work with real estate professionals and our partners so that you can add this large value with a small investment.

Whole house fans are the most energy efficient cooling systems available. Many Hawaii homeowners are able to reduce or eliminate A/C usage during all but the hottest days. This allows homeowners to recapture their investment quicker than many other energy efficiency products. A QuietCool whole house fan system exchanges the volume of air inside your home 20-30 times per hour.
