A cool attic in Mesa Az
By retired early on July 4, 2009
Verified Purchase
Yes, recently purchased Two 20 watt solar attic fans and had pro install these . Average high temp in Mesa Az in July and August is 107. The average temp in my attic was between 155 and 160 degrees. The square footage of my attic space is around 2800 feet. He installed one solar attic fan on the back (Southern exposure), the other one on the western part of my roof.

Fan is well made, complete with German made DC motor. Since it was installed my attic temp is now between 115 and 120 degrees at the hottest part of the day. Two bedrooms that were always hard to keep cooler are now cool. The a/c now during the day and night is working less. And when the a/c would come on before it would blast out a hot surge of air first (because a/c venting is in the attic)then start to cool down. Now when a/c turns on a little warm air comes out first then cool air. Also, fans are very quiet . I had an installer referred to me by the maker of this fan Natural light of Phoenix Az. It cost me more ,but this fan and installation is very good. I should have purchased this product years ago.

Stay healthy and cool

Frequently Asked Questions

Question
Any northeasterners with this fan? Will it be letting cold air into the attic during colder months?
Answer
I am in Wisconsin. These fans are excellent. The bug/animal infiltration prevention screen is well installed and made of some very durable hardware cloth. Most attics are meant to be open to the outside all year round. They are meant to keep the air space between the house and roof vented. That is the purpose of an attic. The biggest concern you should have with an attic is whether or not you are getting proper ventilation. For those of us in the cold climates, condensation and humidity in winter in the attic can be a concern. I have found that these attic fans work better even in passive mode during the winter much better than a static vent. I always get the thermostat unit so the fan only runs when the temp in the attic is 70F or higher. I have three of these fans, and have had them for many years. They are excellent.

Question
Can this fan be installed on a Spanish tile roof?
Answer
Typically for installation on most tile roofs the optional Tile Roof Flashing is used by the installer. The Natural Light Tile Roof Flashing may be found on Amazon here Natural Light Tile Roof Flashing or by searching Amazon for ASIN B00A0XR780.

Question
Are these noisy, was planning on using 2 to vent open beam living room, not attic? Very hot here in Hawaii
Answer
When I'm in the attic, I hardly hear the fan running. At full sun, the fan chugs along with very little noise and it's only a few feet away from the attic ladder. I'm considering getting another fan for the lower attic to keep that area cooler. Hope this helps.

Question
Will it allow water to come in through the fan if it is raining and I mean Florida weather raining.....
Answer
The Natural Light roof mounted solar attic fans are approved for use in hurricane prone areas with wind driven rain.

Question

Answer
No, but you should use this one... Solar Attic Fan - Thermostat ( for Natural Light Brand Fans Only) Solar Attic Fan - Thermostat... it made a big difference in my A.C. Bill.
