How does it work?

Reduced Temperature

In Hawaii, attic spaces are capable of reaching over 140 degrees!
Excess heat from stagnant air can overwork your A/C system, making it less effective, and more costly to run and repair.
A humid, superheated attic can have a negative impact on the life of your roofing resulting in expensive repairs or premature replacement.
Many families in Hawaii use the attic as additional storage space and the excess heat can cause your personal items to deteriorate!

Solar Panel: Mounted on the fan housing, this panel captures sunlight and converts it into electrical energy to power the fan.
Fan Housing: Typically made of durable metal or plastic, this housing contains the fan and its motor. It's often designed to be weather-resistant.
Fan Blades: These are located inside the housing and are powered by the solar panel. When the fan operates, it pulls hot air out of the attic.
The fan we choose to install is made by Natural Light and comes with a lifetime warranty on all the parts. Check out their website below!

The solar attic fan pulls out the stagnant humid hot air and creates a low pressure vacuum drawing in fresh air from both eave and gable vents.
The temperature drop in an attic space with a solar fan can be over 40 degrees!
The fan “self adjusts” speed based on the solar panel’s sun exposure. The more intense sun and heat, the stronger the fan will run!
Proper ventilation and hot air removal will make you A/C work much easier and more efficiently.
Solar fans can also be installed in open beam or vaulted ceiling applications with excellent results!
