What is an Attic Fan? During the height of the summer summer, temperatures in your attic can soar to over 150°F. The higher the temperature of your attic, the less effective your attic insulation will be at stopping heat from entering your home. Venting your attic is an important aspect in maintaining a comfortable environment in your home. It cools your roof, extends the material life, and reduces the work load of your air conditioning system.
Installing a solar attic fan minimizes the amount of heat entering through the attic by reducing your attic temperature. This saves money on your summer cooling bill and makes your house feel more comfortable. Solar attic fans allow you to use the sun’s energy for years of worry-free, no-cost cooling and air circulation. They are an environmentally friendly and economical solution to cooling and ventilation problems resulting from attic heat and moisture penetrating your home's insulation.
Attic venting also increases fresh air circulation, which reduces vapor build-up generated by everyday activities like showering and cooking. Excess moisture trapped in your attic can cause a variety of problems from rust to rot to increased bacteria and mold.
