Solar attic fans that cut heat and lower your energy bills
On a hot day, a Florida attic often hits 150°F or more, pushing heat into your home and baking your shingles from below. A solar fan automatically vents that heat whenever the sun is out.
Runs on solar power→
The built-in panel powers the fan whenever the sun is out. No electrician, no wiring, and no increase to your power bill.
Lower cooling costs→
Venting hot air before it reaches your living space reduces the load on your AC and helps control your cooling costs during Florida's hot summers.
Longer-lasting shingles→
Attic heat dries out and cracks shingles from below. Keeping it in check helps your roof last longer.
Less moisture in your attic→
Moving air helps control humidity, which protects the wood structure under your roof from mold and rot.

What to expect when you call Shingle Saver
A quick assessment of your attic
We check your existing ventilation, including soffit intake, and work out how many fans you need and where. You get a clear upfront quote before we start.
A clean and efficient installation
We mount the fan on your roof and vent it through the deck, so there’s no work inside your home. There’s no wiring, so there’s no electrician required. Most installations are completed in a couple of hours.
A cooler attic and lower energy bills
Your attic starts venting heat on the next sunny day and keeps going whenever it’s bright out. No maintenance required and no operating costs.
A hot attic is hard on your roof
Florida sun can push attic temperatures past 150°F. That heat bakes your shingles from below, dries them out faster, and makes your AC work harder to cool the rooms underneath.
Before we recommend a solar fan, we check your existing vents, including soffit intake, to make sure your attic can breathe. A fan works best when fresh air can come in to replace the hot air it pushes out.
Soffit vents need to be open and clear so the fan has fresh air to pull through the attic.
A solar fan pushes hot, damp air out through the roof whenever the sun is out, with no wiring and no power bill.
Less heat from below helps shingles last longer. If yours are already aging, ask about pairing a fan with a Roof Maxx treatment.
You’ll get a look at your current ventilation and a written quote, free. The decision stays yours.
What Tampa Bay homeowners say
…you need to have it checked before you spend thousands on a new roof. I thought I needed one but after Scott inspected it I only needed a couple of repairs to the shingles. It only took 2 hours and it is beautiful!

Scott and his wife were wonderful to work with… This seemed like the perfect solution for a retired couple not in the position to purchase a new roof. We now have peace of mind this roof will probably outlast us!
Google review
We were in need of a new roof, our house was on the market so we had a timeline. Scott and Team at Roof Maxx knew that and at peak season was able to make our stressful situation into one of the BEST experiences we ever had with a business.

Solar attic fan questions we hear every week
How does a solar attic fan work?
It works like a standard powered attic ventilator, but an integrated solar panel runs the motor instead of your home’s electrical system. The fan runs hardest when the sun is at its peak, which is exactly when your attic is hottest.
How much can a solar fan save on my energy bill?
Savings from a solar fan mostly depend on your insulation, the size of your attic, and how much you run your AC. In Florida, where the cooling season lasts for most of the year, homeowners with solar fans commonly report their AC cycling on less often. The fan helps pay for itself over time with the money it saves on cooling bills, especially since it is powered by sunlight and has no operating costs.
Do solar attic fans work on cloudy days?
Solar fans run slower or intermittently on overcast days. However, your attic also builds up less heat without direct sun, so the two tend to balance out.
How many solar fans does my home need?
Most homes need one or two. Larger homes or complex rooflines with separate attic sections may need more. Our team will base our recommendations on what we believe will be most cost-effective for your home. We never try to sell you more than what you genuinely need.
Will installing a solar fan damage my roof or void my warranty?
Not when it’s done right. That’s why we flash and seal the fan to prevent water getting in, and install everything in line with your shingle manufacturer’s guidelines.
