Installation Instructions
and two panels with the
Y-Adapter
The Y-adapter allows
2 solar panels to be
connected in parallel
to the motor. This
does not double
the voltage to the
motor—it simply
provides another
power source to
allow the unit to
operate for a longer period of time during
the day.
A. For the Gable Mount Unit:
Step A1.
Connect the lead of the first solar panel to
the Y-Adapter. If using the wire extension,
attach directly to the solar panel (as in
remote mounting instructions) and the
other end to the Y-adapter.
Step A2.
Connect the leads from the second panel
to the Y-adapter in the same fashion.
Step A3.
.
Connect the other end of the Y-adapter
to the quick connector leading from the
motor.
B. For the Roof
Mount Unit
Step B1.
An access point is
located under the
shroud to allow for
connecting an extra
panel. (Figure 2) Cut
the zip ties that hold
the wires to the
frame. (Figure 3)
Step B2.
Separate the
quick-connector
under the shroud,
separating the panel
and the motor
connection.
Step B3.
Now connect the Y-adapter as described in
steps A1–A3 to the motor and panel leads.
Step B4.
Bundle and re-attach the wires to the
Solar Attic Exhaust Fan
