Attic Aire™ Solar Powered Roof-Mounted Attic Vent
A smart alternative to conventional roof louvers, the Solar Powered Roof-Mounted Attic Vent operates during the day and collects power from the sun to convert into electricity. In turn, this energy operates a high efficiency motor inside the power vent, so there's no added cost for electricity. That saves energy, which is better for the environment.
And unlike most electric power vents regulated by a thermostat, it works continuously from sunrise to sunset, keeping the attic ventilated all day long instead of waiting for the attic to get overheated.
The solar vent operates without fuel, waste or pollution. And as a totally solar-powered solution, it is also GreenSpec® listed. There's no need for electrical hook-up or electricity, simplifying the installation process. The solar panel is wind, hail and impact resistant.
The Solar Powered Roof-Mounted Attic Vent features durable, high-quality, two-piece construction utilizing a solar panel to collect and deliver power directly from the sun to a high efficiency 24-volt DC motor inside the power vent. The Shell panel collects solar energy even in reduced light and poor weather conditions.
- No electrical hook-up needed
- Solar panel mounts separately from dome
- 10-foot cord on solar panel so that the panel can be positioned for optimal sun exposure
- Up to 800 CFM for attics up to 1,200 square feet
- Low-profile, rust resistant, galvanized steel dome
- Five-year limited warranty and two-year Replacement Plus protection
Benefits of a Solar Powered Attic Vent:
- It operates during the day when your attic requires more air movement.
- Unlike most electric power vents that are regulated by a thermostat, the Solar Powered Roof-Mounted Attic Vent works continuously from sunrise to sunset, keeping the attic ventilated all day long instead of waiting for the attic to get overheated.
Design Considerations
The solar panel can be mounted next to the dome or, because the panel comes
with a 10-foot cord, you can mount the solar panel at another location on
the roof to optimize solar collection while placing the dome in an inconspicuous
location on the roof.
