Point Solar Fans South

Typically you want the solar cells of the solar attic fan pointed south according to the solar attic fan installation manual so if you have to put it on the back to the roof because a cosmetic reasons or whatever you can tilt the solar pane up to make sure that you get maximum efficiency.

Another nice thing about solar attic fans is that you're 100 percent off grid when it comes to power as soon as the Sun hits this attic fan it's going. As a night approaches the solar attic fan turns itself off so you're trying to keep the air moving
on the hottest part of the day but you also got to make sure you do other things in the attic like insulate properly air seal and possibly even install radiant barrier like this rooftop where there's no shade.
