Step 5: Clearance the Shingles
• Cut a horizontal 4” (10cm) slit at the 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock positions
using a razor knife. These slits allow the solar attic fan flashing to be
slid up under the upper courses of shingles.
• You can also remove 1-2” (2.5-5 cm) additional shingle material along
the top to help it slide in easier.
Step 6: Remove Obstructions Under the Shingles
• Remove any nails within 4” (10cm) of the top of the hole. Square
bases require additional clearance
• Dry fit the solar fan (A) flashing to test for other obstructions
stopping it from sliding all the way up. Low Profile (square) bases
should always have the sides vertical to properly slide under the
shingles.
Step 8: Place the Solar Attic Fan into Position.
• Carefully insert the solar attic fan under the upper rows of shingles
and over the lower rows.
Note: Do not let the roof seal smear on the roof until
it is in the final position. A poor seal may result if the
sealer is smeared as the fan is slid into position.
Step 7: Add Roof Sealer
• Add 2 generous, continuous beads of roof seal in 2 concentric rings
on the bottom of the flashing. The best seal involves placing the
beads about 1.5” (3.8cm) and 3” (7.6cm) from the inner transition
edge respectively.
