Easy Steps
Step 1
ChoosealocationfortheSolarAtticFanon
thesouthsideoftheroof,consideringpotential
problemsliketrees,chimneyetc.Theymay
shadethesolarpanelduringcertaintimesof
theday,reducingruntime.
Ifasouthernexposureisnotpossible,thefan
canbeinstalledonanyotherexposureandthe
solarpanelcanbeadjustedtocapturemaxi-
mumsunlight.Note:TheSolarAtticFanmust
beinstalledbetweenroofrafters.
Step 2
Usingeitherastringortemplate,createa14½
inchcircleontotheroofshingles.
Step 3
The Solar Attic Fan must be installed
between roof rafters. Do not cut through
any framing member.
Withareciprocatingsaw,cutthecircumferenceof
thehole.
Step 4
Withrazorknife,cuta4inchslitthroughthe
shinglesandtarpaper,onoppositesidesof
theashing.Thisprovidesthefootprintforthe
ashingtobeinsertedundertheshingles.

Step 5
Removeanyroongnailsintheareawherethe
basewillbeslidundertheshingles.
Step 6
Layabeadofsiliconesealantaroundthebase
oftheashing.
Step 7
Slidetheashingunderneaththetarpaper
andshingles.Adjusttheashingupuntilthe
shinglescomeintocontactwiththeraised
portionoftheashing.Thebottomsideofthe
ashingwillbeontopoftheshingles.
Step 8
Positionthefourscrewsaroundtheashing.
Twoscrewsgooneitherside,andtheremain-
ingtwogoonthetopandbottom.Theside
screwsshouldgounderneaththeshingles.The
topandbottomscrewsshouldgoontopofthe
shingles.
Layabeadofsiliconesealantovereach
fastenerheadandalongtheedgestoseal
shinglestothebaseorroofdecking
Step 9
Layabeadofsiliconesealantalongtheedge
oftheshaftbasetoensureawaterproofseal.
Step 10
Adjustthepanel.

1.Choosethelocationcarefullytoensureop-
timalsunexposurethroughouttheday.Check
foranyshadeontheroofcreatedbytreesora
chimney.
2.Measureonceandcuttwice.Takea
minutetocreateatemplatethatwillcreatethe
correctdimensionsforyourcut.
3.CentertheAirScapeSolarAtticFanap-
proximately2feetawayfromtheroofridgeto
facilitategoodcirculation.
4.Beforeyoubegin,gentlycleananyoilresi-
duefromtheashing.
5.Useahighqualitysiliconesealanttoen-
sureagoodwaterproofseal.

Handy Tips
6.YourSolarAtticFanhasbeenfactory
equippedwithathermalon/offswitch,de-
signedtoturnthefan:
