Temperatures soar to 150 degrees. Moisture reduction which helps eliminate damage to insulation, rafters and wood.
Prevents attic from becoming a HOT BOX. Proper ventilation helps prevent moisture from condensing.
Eliminates hot moist air which can warp boards. Helps to prevent moisture soaked insulation which becomes ineffective, thereby causing excess energy usage.
Stops shingles from premature deterioration. Prevents the attic from overheating which eliminates ice dams at the roof edge.
Removes unwanted heat that spills down through the attic floor into the living area. Reduces energy cost for heating.

E-Z Installation Instructions

The best place for the Solar Attic Fan is the Southern side of your roof. 

This will give the attached solar panel the best exposure to the sun.

 With a reciprocation or jig saw, cut a hole in the roof material and sheathing that is 13" in diameter. Make sure that the hole is centered between rafters to provide maximum clearance for air flow.


Slide the unit into position over the hole, making sure that the top side of the flashing in underneath the shingles and any under layment. The lower side of the flashing should be on top of the roofing material.

 Installation Tips:

- Southern Exposure of panels is ideal for optimum performance -
- Try to avoid any shading on the solar panel. Shading will reduce performance.
- The fan will be most efficient when placed close to the top ridge, as hot air rises.
-The solar attic fan works best in conjunction with gable vents, to provide ventilation.
