Solar Attic Fan

Solar attic fan benefits

A solar attic fan is an attic fan that runs on electricity generated from sunlight. Besides not having to plug the solar attic fan in anywhere, the benefit is that the solar attic fan automatically turns on when it is needed the most, when the sun is shining.

The solar attic fan is placed near the peak of the roof to draw hot air out of the attic. Just as in a car in the sun with the windows all closed, the air in an attic can reach 150F in the summer. This makes the air conditioner work harder because it has to fight against the heat from above. The attic fan pulls the hot air out of the attic, pulling outside air in through vents, cooling the attic, and reducing the need for air conditioning. Since the temperature had recently been in the 90s, this was on our minds.

An attic fan is also supposed to help in the winter also.  I don't know how true that is in this part of Arizona.
