How Solar Power Roof Vents Make
Your Summers (And Winters)
A Lot More Bearable
Discover the magic behind why solar power roof vents help you during both the summer and winter months.
During Winter Months, Solar Roof Vents Keep Attic Temperatures From Dropping Erratically
A solar attic's ventilation effectiveness depends on the climate and the number of solar roof vents installed.
- In the winter, the solar powered roof vents help keep the temperature inside and outside the attic more similar.
- This reduces the risk of the eaves of the house forming ice dams.
During The Summer Months, Solar Power Roof Vents Make A Big Impact
It's really in the summer that solar attic ventilation provides its biggest benefits.
- If you have enough solar roof vents to move adequate volumes of air through the attic, then theoretically it is possible to save up to 30% on air conditioning costs.
Keep in mind, though, that saving 30% on air conditioning costs is a best-case scenario.
The savings are usually lower, but they may be worth installing for some homes because of savings in utility bills coupled with the one-time federal tax credit of 30% of the cost of the units and installation.
Here's to finding a way to bring more solar power into your family!
