Solar Attic Fans

Solar attic fans are becoming popular choice made by today’s homeowners. Easy installation, lower utility costs and eco friendly benefits occur from having a solar powered attic fan. A quality built roof mounted or gable mounted solar attic fan will help assure proper attic ventilation and provide much needed relief to your Air Conditioner during those hot summer days.

From warm weather and daily household activities, moisture and hot air enter the attic. If the heat and moisture is not removed, mildew, mold, and dry rot can occur, causing extensive damage. This trapping of hot air also raises the temperature in the home requiring the homeowner to turn up the air conditioner. The harder the Air Conditioner works the higher the power bill will be.  Vapor and heat built up by these functions is greatly reduced with a solar powered attic fan.  The FAMCO solar attic fan provides approximately ten fresh air exchanges per hour (when used with proper air intake) and can keep the attic within ten to fifteen degrees of the outside temperature.

Another benefit to the solar attic fan is that it does not require a technician or contractor to install and quietly operates without using any aditional electricity. Solar attic fans qualify for a federal tax incentive and have a payback of around two to three years in most cases. The solar attic fan is a great way to reduce energy consumption and make your home more comfortable during those warmer months. PLEASE CALL FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON OUR SOLAR ATTIC FANS.
