I will rephrase, it does not work in a cost effective manner.


Do you have data or just your gut? If it is just gut then I would point out it is a damn complex system with many variables that would directly impact the economics of the endeavor.

For it to work I would think you’d need water running on your roof all day. If you started in the afternoon your attic would already be too hot for the watering of the roof to make a noticeable difference.

I have data of a sort. Virtually no one does it, and the idea is a simple one. That means it never flourished in the market place. That’s enough data for me to not waste time thinking about it. If this was a clever new invention I would consider it.
