Installation
Step 1:
Screw the Gable Fan housing to the frame behind the existing ventilation area. It is important that the fan is securely
mounted in a way that it will not vibrate, as this will create unwanted noise. In some cases, if the mounting area is not perfectly
fl at, use a wide weather-striping (double-sided) between the frame and gable fan, as this will help reduce any vibration noise
which can occur when the mounting service is not perfectly fl at.
NOTE:
If you have a long roof line which would require two gable fan units, it is important to have one fan pulling in air
and have the other exhausting air. By doing this, the air exchanges will be much more effi cient with all the air fl owing in one
direction. If a set up like this is required, be sure to change the direction in which one of the motors is mounted so that one
fan is pulling air in, and the other is sucking air out.

Th e Solar Royal Gable Fans are designed to mount onto existing gable passive
ventilation areas. Th ese fans are perfect for customers who would enjoy the
benefi ts of a roof mounted solar attic ventilation appliance, but prefer to use
the existing gable vent on your home, shed, barn or any other application that
caters to your needs.
Installing a Gable Fan is fairly easy, but Solar Royal, LLC
recommends that if you have no experience working with
these materials or are not familiar with working on a roof or
attic space, we recommend you hire an insured and bonded
professional to install any of your roof or attic appliances.
Building a Mounting Box:
For installation, if you do not have an existing fi tted ventilation area for
a mounted fan, we suggest that you create a mounting frame for easier
installation.
To begin, locate an existing gable or passive vent from inside the attic of
location the ventilation is being installed. Measure the length between
the raft ers connected to the vent and cut your wood planks to complete
the box around all sides of the vent. Your goal is to have a sturdy wooden
frame around the ventilation area that provides airfl ow so the mounted
fan can properly exhaust. We recommend that the mounting box be no
larger than 21” x 21”. If the gable or passive vent extends beyond this area
block off (cover) the excess venting area to prevent backfl ow of exhaust
air. When completed properly, the mounting box should provide an air
channel for the gable fan to properly exhaust through.
