Installation Instructions

It is suggested that you prepare the opening prior to bringing the fan up on the roof.

Always secure the fan on the roof to avoid the fan sliding off the roof and getting damaged.

Step 1 - Ventilation

To make sure you have proper intake ventilation, and to maximize the solar fan’s effectiveness,

You should remove or block any static vents. If there is an existing turbine type vent, simply

remove the old vent and use the same hole for the new installation, or block completely. (fig. 1)

Important Tip:

To properly close off any static vents, use tar paper and staples

as shown in (fig. 2 & 3).
