SOLAR ATTIC VENTILATION
Solar attic fans are a smart and efficient solution for improving home comfort, reducing energy bills, and protecting a home’s structural integrity. Here’s why your customers should consider solar attic ventilation:
1. Cooler Attic Temperatures:
Solar attic fans actively pull cooler air from the outside through soffit vents, circulating it through the attic and pushing hot, stagnant air out through the roof. This process prevents the attic from overheating, keeping the home
more temperate overall.
2. Lower Energy Bills:
By reducing attic temperatures, solar attic fans lessen the strain on HVAC systems, which don’t have to work as hard to cool or heat the home. This means lower heating and cooling bills for your customers.
3. Improved Air Quality:
Proper air circulation reduces humidity and prevents mold and mildew
growth, keeping the air inside the home fresher and healthier.
4. Enhanced Roof Longevity:
By maintaining a cooler attic, solar fans help keep roofing elements like shingles and under

Benefits of a Solar Attic Fan
Solar attic fans present a range of benefits, transforming passive ventilation into an active system that enhances the overall health and efficiency of your home:
1. Extended Roof and AC System Lifespan: By reducing extreme temperatures in the attic, these fans minimize the thermal stress on roofing materials and the air conditioning system, thereby extending their lifespan.
2. Moisture and Mold Reduction: Solar attic fans effectively reduce moisture buildup, a key factor in preventing mold and mildew growth, ensuring a healthier home environment.
3. Increased Air Exchanges: These fans facilitate more frequent air exchanges per hour, keeping the air fresh and moving, which is crucial for maintaining a comfortable indoor environment.
4. Cost-Efficiency: Operating solely on solar power, these fans incur no additional energy costs, making them an economical ventilation solution for any home owner.
5. Federal Tax Credit Eligibility: Solar fans qualify for a 30% federal tax credit program, offering significant savings and making them an attractive investment.
6. Durable Construction: Built with aluminum components and stainless steel fasteners, these fans are designed to withstand extreme conditions, ensuring long-lasting performance.
7. Temperature Regulation: In summer, solar fans help lower attic temperatures, reducing the workload on HVAC systems and making living areas more comfortable. In winter, they prevent condensation on roof beams and rafters, which can lead to mildew, wood rot, and rusting of metal components.
8. Protection of Attic Contents: By regulating attic temperatures, these fans help protect stored items and structural elements like shingles, roof boards, siding, and insulation from heat-induced deterioration.
Attic Depot offers a 30W solar fan in both roof mount and gable mount options, providing a simple yet effective solution for hot, under-ventilated attics. This product not only enhances home comfort but also contributes to a healthier, more efficient living space.
What If the Roof Has Ridge Vents?
Ridge Vents are known as passive vents. While they do allow air to move out of the attic, there is not nearly enough air movement to actively cool the attic. When installed properly, ridge vents do NOT get in the way of our solar fan working properly. This chart shows the attic temperatures with ridge vents vs. solar attic fans.
