Caution

1. For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.
2. To avoid motor bearing damage and noisy and/or unbalanced impellers, keep drywall spray, construction dust, etc. off the power unit.
3. This ventilator operates when the solar panel is exposed to sunlight. To reduce the risk of injury while installing, servicing, or cleaning the unit,  cover the solar panel with cardboard or disconnect the wires from the motor terminals (note wire locations when disconnecting).
4. The recommended open-air inlet for this ventilator is around 0.85 square feet (R=6.3in/0.53ft). The best location for these air intake vents is under the eaves with direct access to the attic. Failure to provide these intakes could cause natural-draft gas appliances to backdraft.
5. Your attic fan installation will create a screened opening into your attic space. During a heavy rainstorm, there could be a light spray of rain into this attic space. This is a normal condition with all attic ventilators and will not cause any damage to the structure. We recommend that you do not store any valuable articles directly under the fan opening on the roof.
6. This attic fan is intended for sidewall installation. It is one perfect choice to ventilate the attic, boat, shed, greenhouse, caravan, workshop or garages, etc.
7. Take care to avoid getting paint on the solar panel.
8. The installation instructions contained in this document are only a recommendation and individual professionals may have their own methods of installation. If your roof has an existing warranty, installation of this product by anyone other than those who installed the roof may jeopardize any future warranty claim. Please check with the original installer of your roof if this is a concern.
9. When working with asphalt shingles in cold weather (below 40oF), take care to avoid damage to the shingle edges and corners.

If it doesn’t work, there might be some problem with its motor, please contact the customer service team for a replacement motor.
4. If the fan only works when connecting with the battery, there might be a problem with the solar panel. Please put the solar panel under sunlight, then use a multimeter to check the panel’s voltage. Generally, the voltage is around 18V to 22V, the current is around 1.3A. If the voltage number you got is lower than 18V, please contact the customer service team for a replacement solar panel.
