Might be better/easier to pipe that underground-cooled air directly into/through the house.
What I'm aiming for is to reduce heat transfer during the summer into the house from the outside!! In southern Utah my house is usually about 15-20 degrees Fahrenheit to the outside temperature, so I'm thinking that cooling that 2" space around the outside would possibly be more efficient then the whole house!! The temperature got to 115 this year, so my house would get to between 95-100 with no swamp cooler!!
