Step 11
After the panel is adjusted to the desired
position, secure the cable to one of the
support arms using a tie wrap.
Step 12
After the cable is secured seal the area
around the cable where it enters the roof
deck with exterior grade silicone sealant
to keep water from entering the attic
around the cable.
Step 13
Locate the cable in the attic and drape the
cable from rafter to rafter and connect to
the Gable Mount fan. Secure any excess
cable to the rafters with tie wires or
coaxial staples.
Surface Mounting for Tile or
Metal Roofs
Step 1
Determine the
location of the
contact points by
mount on at
positioning the panel
least 2 tiles
in the desired area.
For Spanish tile roofs,
fi nd a position with
as much surface area
coming in contact
with the bottom of
the panel as possible.
The panel must be
mounted on at least
2 rows of tile as
shown. (Figures 27 and 28)
Step 2
Apply enough roof
tile adhesive to
the underside of
the base to fi rmly
secure the panel to
the surface. Both
surfaces should be
dry and free of any dirt or solvents.
(Figure 29)
Step 3
The panel can be
tilted into 2 positions
with the adjustment
reinstall
arm, choose the best
screw A
angle and reinstall
the adjusting screws
(screw A). (Figure 30)
Wall Mounting
(Optional)
Brackets are
included to mount
the panel to a wall
if preferred. (Figures
31 and 32)
Step 1
Attach the brackets
to the panel using
the 4 bolts (F.)
(Figure 33)
Step 2
Depending on the
material your wall is
made of, mount the
assembly to the wall
using appropriate
fasteners (see
"Optional
Hardware" for
details). (Figure 34)
Fascia Mounting
Figure 27
(Optional)
The Fascia Mounting
Kit allows you to
install the solar panel
of the VentSure
Solar Attic Exhaust
Fan—Gable Mount
Figure 28
and Additional Solar
Panel Kit directly to
a fascia board. This
gives you another
option for mounting the panel instead of
on the roof tiles or an exterior wall.
Attach the fascia brackets to the
fully assembled wall brackets
included with your VentSure
Attic Exhaust Fan—Gable Mount
Figure 29
Unit
Step 1
On a fl at surface,
orient the fascia
and wall brackets as
shown. (Figure 35)
You can also install
on wall brackets
that are already attached to the panel—
just make sure they are facing the same
Figure 30
direction.

Step 2
Locate the lower
hole on the wall
bracket (Figure 36)
and fi t the bolt
through the 2
brackets and attach
the nut. (Figure 37)
Step 3
Repeat Step 2 for
the upper hole with
another bolt and nut.
(Figure 38 and 39)
Once both nuts
are secure, tighten
completely with an
adjustable wrench.
Step 4
Repeat all the steps
again for the second
bracket. Then attach
to the solar panel
as illustrated in
Figure 33.
Attach the
complete
assembly to your
fascia board
Step 5
Find a desired
location for the
completed assembly
and attach with
(4) 1.5" galvanized screws (not included)
or fasteners appropriate for your fascia
material. (Figure 40 and 41). Once secure,
adjust the panel as desired.
