Getting Started
Your Attic Breeze retrofit-style solar attic fan is designed for easy installation behind or underneath an existing passive
vent. Please consult your Attic Breeze dealer for more information regarding alternate installation methods.
Your local building code may require specific fasteners or anchoring systems not discussed in this installation guide. If
installing this product in an area of either Florida or Texas that has been designated as a high velocity wind zone area,
review applicable building code requirements for additional installation instructions.
What's Included
Self-Tapping Screws with Rubber Bonded
Washers
Weatherproof Roofing Grade Sealant
Power Cable Flashing
Safety Information
Safety precautions should be taken when performing the roofing work described in this installation guide. You can
significantly reduce your risk of danger by following the below recommendations:
• Do not perform roofing work in wet or windy conditions
• Tie-off both yourself and your equipment when working on steep pitched roofs to avoid falls
• Wear safety glasses and protective gloves when using power tools
• Always wear slip-resistant shoes when working on the roof
• Do not cut through any rafters or structural members of the roof during installation
• Leave the solar panel covered until your installation is complete
Choosing the Right Location
Choose a location on your roof to install the solar panel that will offer optimum sun exposure throughout the day. For
best results, pick an area that is oriented in a southern direction and is not shaded or otherwise blocked from the sun
for extended periods. If an installation location on the southern side of your roof is not available, please consult your
Attic Breeze dealer for additional solar panel mounting options.
Your solar attic fan should not be installed any closer than within 10 feet to an existing passive vent, ridge vent, or
additional fan unit. If installed in combination with a ridge vent, it may be necessary to block off a portion of the vent
close to the fan to achieve optimum attic ventilation performance.
Ventilation Requirements
In order for your Attic Breeze solar attic fan to operate at maximum performance,
your attic must have enough intake ventilation (net free area) to support the
amount of air that your fan is moving. The minimum recommended amount of
intake ventilation for your product model is shown in Table 1. Your installation
should either meet or exceed these recommendations for optimum fan
performance. If you need assistance determining the proper amount of intake
ventilation for your home, please visit our website for more information.
