Getting Started Your Cardinal Ventilation solar attic fan is designed for easy installation with composite shingle roofs or other low-profile roofing materials which may accommodate self-flashing roofing products. For installation of our products on metal or tile roofs, please contact Cardinal Ventilation for additional information regarding installation for these roof types. Your local building code may require specific fasteners or anchoring systems not discussed in this installation guide.

Installing the Fan Step 1 - Cut the Hole After choosing the location where your solar attic fan will be installed, find the closest rafter to that location and determine if your roof has either 16" on center or 24" on center rafter spacing. If your roof has 24" on center rafter spacing, find the center point between two rafters and mark it as the center of the vent hole. For roofs with 16" on center spacing, mark the rafter itself as the center of the vent hole.

Figure 3 - Mounting the Fan Adjusting the Solar Panel The solar panel on your Cardinal Ventilation solar attic fan may either be left down in the horizontal mounted position as received from the factory, or the solar panel bracket may be raised to tilt the solar panel toward the south for better sun exposure. To raise the solar panel, first loosen the set bolts on the solar panel mounting brackets using a 7/16" wrench as shown in Figure 4.
