Solar gable fans or solar roof mounted attic fans can prevent ice damming in the winter and protect your shingles from super heated attic air in the summer.
Solar panels turn solar energy into electricity.
This can significantly reduce cooling costs over the life of the solar panels.
The researchers found that solar panels can lower a roof s temperature by 5 degrees fahrenheit or about 3 degrees celsius.
The fan blades spin but they don t lower the attic temperature at all.
The powerful 40 watt amtrak solar attic fanis another great option that can help you reduce the attic temperature from 150 f to 90 f by extracting all the hot air that is concentrated inside the attic during summer seasons.
Keeping the temperature of your attic regulated is an essential part of an energy efficient well built home.
This product is a solar gable mounted attic fan that has a venting capacity to clear areas up to 2 250 square feet.
