Step 5
Loosen and remove
screw A (both sides)
to allow the panel to
swing away from the
base. Set the screws
aside. (Figure 6)
screw A
Step 6
Pull the wire back
through the hole in
the center of the
base to allow the
base to lay fl at on
the roof deck.
(Figure 7)
Step 7
Fasten the mounting
base to the roof
deck using the four
(4) 3" galvanized
screws. Seal the tops
of the mounting
screws with an
exterior grade
silicone sealant.
Tilt the panel away
from the base
when installing the
screws. If the panel
is to remain fl at
against the base, it
is recommended
to allow the sealant
to completely dry
before it comes in
contact with the panel. (Figures 8 and 9)
Step 8
After attaching the mounting base to
the roof deck, feed the connecting cable
through the hole in the roof deck. Leave
enough slack under the solar panel
to allow the panel full travel to avoid
pinching the cable or pulling on the cable
connection during adjustment.
Step 9
Adjust the tilt of the panel to maximize
exposure to the sun throughout the day.
The optimal adjustment is to have the
panel 90 degrees to mid-day path of the
sun. If desired, the angle of the panel can
be adjusted as the seasons change to
maximize sunlight captured.
Step 10
After the panel is adjusted to the desired
position, secure the cable to one of the
support arms using a tie wrap.
Step 11
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 12
Locate the cable in the attic and drape the
Figure 6
cable from rafter to rafter and connect to
the cable from the 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
Figure 7
location of the
contact points by
positioning the
panel in the desired
area. For Spanish
tile roofs, fi nd a
position with as
much surface area
coming in contact
Figure 8
with the bottom of
the panel as possible.
The panel must be
mounted on at least
2 rows of tile as
shown. (Figures 10
and 11)
Step 2
Apply enough roof
Figure 9
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 12)
Step 3
The panel can be
tilted into 2 positions
with the adjustment
arm, choose the best
angle and reinstall
the adjusting screws
(screw A). (Figure 13)
Wall Mounting
(Optional)
Brackets are
included to mount
the panel to a wall
if preferred. (Figures
14 and 15)
Step 1
Attach the brackets
to the panel using
the 4 bolts (F.)
(Figure 16)
Step 2
Depending on the
material your wall is
made of, mount the
assembly to the wall
using appropriate
fasteners (see
"Optional
mount on at Hardware" for
least 2 tiles details). (Figure 17)

Fascia Mounting (Optional)
The Fascia Mounting Kit allows you to
install the solar panel of the VentSure
Solar Attic Exhaust Fan—Gable Mount
and Additional Solar Panel Kit directly to a
fascia board. This gives you another option
for mounting the panel instead of on the
Figure 11
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
Unit
Step 1
On a fl at surface,
orient the fascia
Figure 12
and wall brackets as
shown. (Figure 18)
You can also install
on wall brackets that
are already attached
to the panel—just
make sure they are
facing the same
reinstall
direction.
