Step 2.

 

Depending on the material your wall is made of, 

mount the assembly to the wall using appropriate 

fasteners (see “Optional Hardware” on page 1 for 

details).

Connecting the panel to the fan:

Step 2.

 

Typically the wire will route through an opening in the vent or an unused 

louver. 

(fig. 36) 

Step 3.

 

Connect the wires to the fan, matching the red wire to the red connector 

and the black to the black connector on the motor. 

(fig. 37)

Step 4. 

 

Include a drip curve if possible when securing to the wall to prevent 

water running down the wire and into the attic or crawl space. 

(fig. 38)

Step 1.

 

Once the panel and fan are mounted, route the wire from the panel to 

the fan, attaching the wire to the building appropriately. We suggest 

using romex mounting clips or coaxial staple for either wood or masonry 
available at your local hardware store or home builder supply.

With the optional fascia bracket kit, the panel 

can be mounted directly to a fascia board.

Additional Accessory Available

The Solar Controller

 has a built in thermostat and humidistat that will measure the attic 

temperature and humidity and allow the fan to have extend run time in the evenings or 

when no solar is available. 

Visit www.ussunlight.com for additional information. 

Thermal Switch - Optional Installation

The thermal switch will shut down the fan when the temperature drops below approximately 65˚F 

and turn the fan back on when the attic temperature rises to approximately 80˚F. To install the 

thermal switch, remove the 

BLACK 

lead from the fan motor and attach it to the thermal switch. Attach 

the other lead from the thermal switch to the 

BLACK 

terminal on the motor. Secure the wires to the 

motor bracket with tape or zip ties to prevent them from interfering with the fan blade. If you prefer 

to have the fan running during cooler seasons to remove moisture from the attic, do not install the 

thermal switch 

(fig. 39). As an upgrade from the mechanical thermal switch, utilize the Solar 

Controller with an electronic thermostat and humidistate as well as additional features.

This solar fan will automatically start whenever the sun shines on the solar panel.  Always exercise caution when in the vicinity of the fan.
To avoid accidents, use appropriate attire: safety glasses, gloves, hard hats, restraints and other appropriate equipment.
Use this product only as indicated by U.S. Sunlight Corp. Any questions on appropriate applications, call 1-877-50-USSUN.
Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable building codes and 
standards, including fire requirements.
To prevent back drafting of any fuel burning equipment in the attic such as a gas furnace, sufficient air is needed for proper combustion 
and exhausting of gases through the flue of fuel burning equipment. Follow the requirements made by the heating unit’s manufacturer. 
Additionally, follow safety standards set fort by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), and the American Society for Heating, 
Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.

Some All Purpose Ventilators come equipped with the Quick Connector 

mechanism. Instead of connecting the spade wires directly to the fan, 

attach via the Quick Connectors.
