4. SYSTEM OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
4.1 HOW TO OPERATE
QuietCool Attic Fans work almost everywhere, almost anytime. During the summer, an attic
can be 40-50 degrees hotter than the outside temperature, which in turn heats up the house
much faster. With an attic fan, you can cool the attic to the same temperature as it is outside,
greatly reducing the house from heating up as quickly.
3. WIRING
3.1 CONNECTING THE AC/DC SMART INVERTER
Your QuietCool Solar Attic Fan includes an AC/DC power inverter. This inverter is used to run
the solar attic fan at nighttime when there is no sunlight.
Simply plug the solar inverter from your fan into a 110v outlet in your attic. The Smart Inverter
will automatically switch between AC power and DC solar power depending on the level of
sunlight present. If you do not want to use the AC/DC Smart Inverter, simply leave the fan
unplugged. The fan will still run anytime there is sunlight.
Adjusting the Solar Panel
The fan’s solar panel should be adjusted to maximize exposure to the sun’s path during the day. The
optimal adjustment is to have the panel 90 degrees to the midday path of the sun. You can readjust the
panel during winter or summer seasons if desired.
Adjusting Panel Tilt
This fan has two solar panel adjustments. Set the angle properly to capture the most direct sunlight.
Remove the screw on both sides of the panel assembly. Lift the panel and swing the panel braces up to
the desired position and re-attach the screw in the applicable holes.
Adjusting Panel Rotation
The fan has a horizontal rotational adjustment that moves 90°. Simply loosen the 4 wing nuts to loosen
the solar panel and rotate for adjustment. If you need more adjustment than 90°, the assembly can
be removed by removing the 4 wing nuts and repositioning the panel. This gives a full 360° rotation
ability.
