The solar fan is for home owners who don't want to run a powered attic fan by household electricity. The attic fan's motor is powered directly by sunlight. When the sun rises, the fan starts to run and gets a "head start" (before the attic starts getting hot) in circulating the attic air. The fan stops at sunset or when there is no longer enough sunlight (like in shade) to power the motor. The major benefit is that you do not have to power the fan with your own electricity or run wiring to the fan. Because the fan must run on solar power, the motor is not as powerful, hence the fan does not vent as much air. The solar attic fan covers a much smaller attic area, 1200 sq. ft. Some homes may require 2 or more fans. Also, the actual cost of the fan is higher than an electrical fan due to the cost of the solar cell.

The NATURAL LIGHT come with the manufacturer's warranty.

When investing in a product to improve your home and quality of life, you want assurance it's performing efficiently and effectively. Three critical factors set NATURAL LIGHT apart:

1. Back Pressure of Exhausted Gases
As the exhaust travels through the vent it can build up pressure within, making it work less effectively. NATURAL LIGHT's design minimizes obstructions in the flashing and shroud and incorporates an angled throat to facilitate a venturi effect, or suction effect, to increase air flow. This improvement increased cfm output and also reduced wear on the motor!

2. Sun Exposure on the Solar Panel
Other fans incorporate the solar panel into the fan housing compromiseing optimal venting and optimal solar exposure. NATURAL LIGHT's solar panel has available an exclusive bracket allowing you to mount the panel at the best collection angle and position, either on the fan housing or directly on the roof. With NATURAL LIGHT, you can place your vent where you need it most and your panel where it will work the best.

3. Solar Collector Temperature
As a solar panel heats up, it becomes less efficient at converting light to energy. NATURAL LIGHT reduces heat two ways; by powder coating the fan housing a neutral gray, and by mounting the solar panel in a raised bracket promoting cooling air circulation.

NATURAL LIGHT's warranty is: 25 years on the housing; 10 years on the solar panel; 5 years on the motor.

We also have another brand of solar vent , a more powerful one and a gable mount solar powered fan. Call for more info.
