Coworker just sent me a picture of a thermometer reading ‘144.6’. It’s too hot for more than a couple minutes

Yeah, I was up there long enough to verify bad blower then out. <5mins

Do techs have safety guidelines for how long they can stay in as dangerously hot attic?

I would never have a tech do any actual work in that attic.

With the exception of myself, we dont really do any work in attics above 110f. If we cant get the attic to a reasonable temp, we push the job off until a morning or cooler day.
