Here's what makes our solar attic fans the smart choice.

FAQs

Solar attic fans can boost your air conditioning system’s efficiency. They work to keep your house cool while reducing your energy consumption and saving you money. Choosing the right fan accessories can make all the difference for your solar attic fan with Remington Solar! Learn how these accessories work with your fan. 

The 110V Hybrid Adapter is a must-have accessory to keep your solar attic fan running without sunlight. Since solar attic fans don’t have batteries and don’t store energy, they can’t keep your attic cool on cloudy days or at night without one of these accessories. 

Several factors contribute to how heat builds up in your attic. Because hot air rises, attics naturally get hot and stuffy, even in moderate climates. Unless your top floor was built to house people, it’s probably not well-ventilated. If you have attic windows or a sunroof, the area can also trap solar heat when the sun is out. 

In especially hot climates, it can be very hard to keep cool in your attic, even at night. When your attic is too hot and poorly ventilated, your HVAC system has to work harder to cool the rest of your house. A solar attic fan reduces this burden, which lowers your energy usage and can save you money. 

The 110V Hybrid Adapter is easy to install. Like other Remington Solar attic fan accessories, it features a plug-and-play design. You can plug in anywhere, but be sure to use a surge protector in case of lightning strikes or power surges. You can also easily hook your adapter up to the thermostat. Once the device is up and running, it switches your fan’s power source from solar to in-house anytime your attic gets over 80° F. The adapter will always default to solar power, only drawing power from your home if there is no sun.

Going up to the attic to adjust your fan can be a chore. With the Wi-Fi Smart Thermostat/Humidistat, you can simply adjust your temperature and humidity settings from your smartphone. 

While your attic’s temperature might be easy to notice, you may not always consider the humidity. If you don’t have proper ventilation, humid air can stagnate in your attic, which can cause mold, mildew, and roof damage. If you use your attic for storage, excessive humidity can ruin your treasured items. 

With this solar fan accessory, you can set the temperature and humidity levels that will activate your fan. You can also turn it on or off without having to go up to the attic. A healthy humidity range for any indoor space, including your attic, is between 30% and 50%. Any higher, and you risk warping wood structures. Any lower and your HVAC system would have to work harder to maintain heat and cooling levels. 

The Wi-Fi Smart Thermostat/Humidistat comes with a smart hub you can plug into your router and with a downloadable app on the App Store or Google Play. Once you have the app, adjust your temperature and humidity settings to your desired levels, and let the attic fan do the rest.

If your solar attic fan seems to be less effective, it might be time to replace the thermostat. Your attic can be a harsh environment, and moisture can wear the thermostat out. Thankfully, replacement thermostats are affordable and easy to set up. 

You don’t need any tools to install your new thermostat. Your solar attic fan has wires and plugs for every component, so you can swap out your thermostats with ease. Simply plug in the new wires where the old ones used to be.
