Abstract

A house air conditioning system that operates with outside air. The air conditioning system closes the house and uses air conditioning, when the outside temperature is lower than the inside house air temperature the air conditioning system is turned off, the house or building is opened to the outside and the cooler outside air is drawn through the house using fans. In the morning, before sunrise, the fans will draw outside cool air in from the outside to cool the thermal mass of the house and then closes the house as the outside air heats to trap the cool air within the house to delay air conditioning operation and reduce the overall amount of AC runtime energy required to cool the house. This system can also operate in reverse to heat the home. The system uses multiple sensors and control mechanism to ensure optimal energy savings.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A natural air energy saving system comprising:
 a structure that is cooled or heated;   at least one temperature sensor located within said structure and at least one temperature sensor located external from said structure;   an existing heating or air conditioning system;   at least one user installable fan;   at least one user installable actuator or servo;   a programmable control that can autonomously turn said existing heating or air condition system on or off, and   said programmable controller can operate said at least one user installable fan and said at least one user installable actuator or service to maintain a temperature within said structure.   
   
   
       2 . The natural air energy saving system according to  claim 1  wherein said structure is a house, building or residence. 
   
   
       3 . The natural air energy saving system according to  claim 1  wherein said user installable actuator or servo opens an existing window, door or vent on said structure. 
   
   
       4 . The natural air energy saving system according to  claim 1  wherein said programmable controller further includes an encoder that sends signals over AC power lines. 
   
   
       5 . The natural air energy saving system according to  claim 4  wherein operation of said at least one user installable fan and said at least one user installable servo or actuator is controlled from a signal from said programmable controller over the existing power line that powers said at least one user installable fan and said at least one user installable servo or actuator. 
   
   
       6 . The natural air energy saving system according to  claim 1  wherein said programmable controller further includes a wireless transmitter. 
   
   
       7 . The natural air energy saving system according to  claim 6  wherein operation of said at least one user installable fan and said at least one user installable servo or actuator is controlled from a signal from said programmable controller from said wireless transmitter. 
   
   
       8 . The natural air energy saving system according to  claim 1  wherein said system can determine when the an outside temperature will change in the future and operate said at least one user installable fan and said at least one user installable servo or actuator to alter a temperature within said structure. 
   
   
       9 . The natural air energy saving system according to  claim 1  that further includes a wind direction indicator. 
   
   
       10 . The natural air energy saving system according to  claim 9  wherein said system uses said wind direction indicator to open and or close said windows, vents or doors based upon prevailing wind direction. 
   
   
       11 . A natural air energy saving system comprising:
 a structure that is cooled or heated;   at least one temperature sensor located within said structure and at least one temperature sensor located external from said structure;   at least one user installable fan;   at least one user installable actuator or servo;   a powered air heating and or air cooling device;   a programmable control wherein said programmable controller optimizes the use of air outside said structure with said powered air heating and or air cooling device with operation of said at least one user installable fan and said at least one user installable actuator or service to maintain a temperature within said structure.   
   
   
       12 . The natural air energy saving system according to  claim 11  wherein said structure is a house, building or residence. 
   
   
       13 . The natural air energy saving system according to  claim 11  wherein said user installable actuator or servo opens an existing window, door or vent on said structure. 
   
   
       14 . The natural air energy saving system according to  claim 11  wherein said programmable controller further includes an encoder that sends signals over AC power lines. 
   
   
       15 . The natural air energy saving system according to  claim 14  wherein operation of said at least one user installable fan and said at least one user installable servo or actuator is controlled from a signal from said programmable controller over the existing power line that powers said at least one user installable fan and said at least one user installable servo or actuator. 
   
   
       16 . The natural air energy saving system according to  claim 11  wherein said programmable controller further includes a wireless transmitter. 
   
   
       17 . The natural air energy saving system according to  claim 16  wherein operation of said at least one user installable fan and said at least one user installable servo or actuator is controlled from a signal from said programmable controller from said wireless transmitter. 
   
   
       18 . The natural air energy saving system according to  claim 11  wherein said system can determine when the an outside temperature will change in the future and operate said at least one user installable fan and said at least one user installable servo or actuator to alter a temperature within said structure. 
   
   
       19 . The natural air energy saving system according to  claim 11  that further includes a wind direction indicator. 
   
   
       20 . The natural air energy saving system according to  claim 19  wherein said system uses said wind direction indicator to open and or close said windows, vents or doors based upon prevailing wind direction.
