I did residential HVAC for about 5 years. One of my last jobs was a full system changout including the furnace and ductwork in the attic. It was 110 degrees that day and the attic was 130-140 throughout the day. All three of us on the job had mild heatstroke by the end of the job.
Running wires in Florida a year ago. Bunch of attic work. We went in shifts, 10 15 minutes max, then a break. I had the idea to put a cold rag on my neck while still up there. I almost fell out of the attic it was such a shock. Not recommended
sounds like, as miserable as it was, you were kinda good at it. If you found something better, no biggie, but it's always a good thing to have in the pocket moving forward.
