In my new home I'm trenching four 4" PVC tubes 10' under, for 250 feet. I will draw air through them and use the 60 degree fresh air year round. My house is on a hill so the outboard ends are sloped slightly so condensation will run out rather than cause a mold farm, although I could occasionally flush them with bleach to be sure. The unit in the house is a standard furnace blower and filter with ducts throughout the house. On the hottest days I'll still need the A/C but I'm hoping it takes care of the tweener months. I'll let y'all know how it works out. P.S.: I hear Daniel Boone did something similar, a trench between his cabin and barn, which worked quite well.
