The 20-Watt Remington Solar “Whirlybird” turbine retrofit fan is designed to pull the hot air out of your attic up to 3 times faster than the existing turbine blades and whirlybird-style fans. Automatically turns on with a powerful 20-Watt brushless DC motor which actively pulls hot air out of your attic. 1 huge advantage to this solar turbine retrofit is that it can be easily installed DIY. If you can safely access your turbine vent on your roof, then you can easily replace the turbine with the solar fan. No need for expensive roofers or electricians to install. (Less than 4-minute installation.) Comes with pre-drilled holes and 6 self-tapping screws. Also includes thermostat and humidistat that will automatically turn the fan on above 80° temperatures and 80% relative humidity to get the moisture out. Works great on sunny non-windy days. This fan is suitable for 12 in. existing vents. Make sure your exiting vent is in a sunny location (not behind a chimney or shaded area).

Ounce for ounce, pound for pound, you deserve the best.

Our “Brushless” DC motor means “we run quiet and forever”. And our warranty backs it up. Brushless is more expensive, but worth it. Compare our cost to the cost of ripping your brushed fan off the roof in 5 years and replacing it. (But some of our competitors want to charge you more for “brushed” motors? Hmmmm.)

HINT #2: Overall, we’re a better fan, and we’re less expensive. Why? Well, seeing our competitors at big fancy trade shows and booths stuffed full of salespeople (earning 20% commission on their fan sales) may have a little something to do with it.

Frequently Asked Questions

This 20-watt solar attic fan removes hot air from your attic up to three times faster than traditional models. It uses integrated solar panels, which turn the fan on even when there isn’t any wind power. The fan was also designed to last with non-corrosive aluminum and highly durable components. As a result, you can save more money on your monthly energy bills by choosing this attic turbine vent fan over an alternative. 

The product also features an integrated thermostat and humidistat. These tools monitor environmental conditions in your attic and automatically turn the fan on when temperatures pass 80 degrees Fahrenheit or when relative humidity eclipses 80%. These parameters ensure your attic automatically gets the cooling it needs, further improving efficiency.

Remington also makes it possible to try this attic turbine fan with minimal risk. We offer a 30-day satisfaction guarantee. So, if you’re not happy, we’ll issue a full refund, no questions asked. You’ll also get free shipping and a 15-year limited warranty to keep you protected throughout your fan’s lifespan. 

Yes, unlike many other whirlybird turbines, this fan is easy enough for most homeowners to install independently. It comes with pre-drilled holes and six self-tapping screws. All you need is a cordless screwdriver and an existing roof vent shaft. If you have those, you can install the fan yourself in under five minutes, without hiring any expensive roofers or electricians.

However, if you don’t have an existing roof vent shaft or are uncomfortable working on your roof, you may need some professional support. But even then, you won’t need any special wiring or structural work, so it shouldn’t be an expensive process.

Before installation, you may want to consider adding Remington Solar’s optional hybrid adapter. This feature switches the fan over to the utility grid when there isn’t any sun available. That way, the attic turbine fan will continue keeping your attic cool on cloudy days and hot nights.

This attic ventilation turbine fan is designed for 12-inch vents. If your home already has one of these vents, your installation process will be a breeze. You won’t have to worry about cutting new holes or doing any major re-roofing. If you don’t have a 12-inch vent, you may need to create one for this fan. Either way, it’s worth double-checking with a professional just to be sure. They will likely help you find a more creative solution.

The location of your 12-inch vent also matters. It should be in a location that receives maximum sunlight during the hottest parts of the day. That way, the solar panels consistently get all the sun they need to keep the fan spinning. In general, the more sunlight your solar panel receives, the more efficiently the fan runs and the lower your utility energy costs.

This turbine attic fan is designed to ventilate attics up to about 1,500 square feet, making it ideal for most single-story homes, workshops, detached garages, and sheds. 

However, the size of your attic isn’t the only factor that matters. Details like your roof pitch and your climate will also impact how effectively the fan can ventilate your space. For example, an especially high pitch or a very hot, humid environment will require a more powerful fan.

If your space is much less than 1,500 square feet, a smaller fan may be a better option. In fact, using a solar fan that’s too powerful can reduce energy efficiency and can actually increase your energy costs.
