Designed to give users flexibility to achieve the optimal sun angle if the preferred mounting location is on a north facing, east facing, or flat roof. The solar panel can be fixed from 0 degrees all the way to 60 degrees in 5-degree increments. Remember, we recommend the solar panel to be facing south or south-west.
Experience has taught us that the more air you move, the better the cooling effect. Therefore, don't hesitate to oversize the fan for the space you have.
MATERIALS:
Housing: UV-stabilized ABS. Same stuff quality kayaks are made from. Meant to withstand anything the weather throws at it. Will NOT break down in the sun. Let’s face it, you want something on your roof that isn’t going to leave rust stains down your roofing material after a few years. The competition likes to use cheap, painted, corrosive metal. ABS is more costly, but a no-brainer for outdoor products.
Solar Panel: Monocrystalline and incredibly efficient at producing electricity for the motor. We keep our products up to date with the latest and greatest solar technology.
Fan Motor: State-of-the-art brushless motor rated for 25 years.
Fan Blade: Poly-carbon. Quiet and reliable. More durable than metal, without the harmonic noise. Metal can get bent, and a bent fan blade means more wear on the motor bearings. Each fan blade is dynamically balanced by hand to ensure the bearings last as long as possible.
Fasteners: Every nut, bolt, screw, rivet, washer…etc is stainless steel to give our products an anti-corrosive advantage against varying climates.
Rodent Stop: Roof mounted fans are equipped with a stainless-steel screen to prevent any unwanted critters from breaching your attic.
Storm Guard: Built into the fan housing to prevent wind-swept rain from getting into your attic.
Thermostat: Turns the fan on at 80*F and off at 65*F if the sun is out. This prevents the fan from running when it doesn’t need to. It also extends the life of the motor. If you wish to have the fan operate regardless of temperature, contact us upon ordering to have the thermostat removed prior to shipping.
