Installation
Instructions
Follow
these instructions for connecting an 11, 15, or 20 watt SunRise Solar
Panel to a SunRise Solar-Powered Attic Fan
Mounting
Instructions:
1)
Remove solar panel from packing. Find a suitable location on the roof
to mount the solar panel a Southern or Western-facing roof slope
will allow the solar panel to capture the most sunlight during the
heat of the day. The solar panel comes with a 15 extension cord,
so you must be sure the remote solar panel is not more than 15
from the Solar Fan.
2)
Drill a 3/8 hole through the roof and feed the wire from the solar
panel down into the attic.
Apply
a generous amount of silicone or other sealant to the area where the
wire goes
through
roof.
3)
Try to tuck the upper flange of the solar panel under a row of
shingles to prevent water from running down under the solar panel.
Apply a bead of sealant around the bottom edge of the solar panel and
gently set the solar panel in place. Mount the solar panel to the
roof using the (8) exterior-grade screws provided.
4)
From inside the attic, uncoil the extra wire and plug the red wire
into the red tab on the motor. Plug the black wire into the black
tab. CAUTION: Please make sure the wires are plugged red to
red (or white to red on some models) and black to black. Fasten the
wire to one of the motor bracket arms using one of the wire ties
provided. This will keep the weight of the wire from pulling away
from the motor connection.
5)
Now, locate the wire hanging down from the solar panel. Plug the
extension wire into the solar panel wires (the
red wire may be white on some models).
Once the connection is made, if there is extra wire hanging down,
coil it up using one of the wire ties provided to keep the wire from
getting snagged, or from pulling the connections apart. The extra
wire may come in handy if you need to move the solar panel to a new
location in the future. For example, if a young tree grows and shades
the solar panel then you will want to relocate the remote panel to a
sunny spot. |
