Australian summers continue to get hotter and a great way to keep your business cooler in summer is to use solar roof ventilation like the SolarKing commercial solar fan. This unit draws in the cooler outside air and extracts the hot air built up in the factory.
Many factories already have wind driven “commercial whirly birds” installed on roofs. Whirly birds rely on highs winds to produce any benefit and even then, they only move around 300CBM per hour for each unit. Compare this to the SolarKing commercial fan that moves 13000CBM per hour, there is simply no comparison.
The SolarKing solar exhaust fan uses the sun and only starts working when your factory reaches 25°C so as not to remove warm air in the winter when it is needed to keep the factory warm (whirly birds operate regardless of the temperature). The thermostat can also be bypassed if you want to move air all year round. When the sun disappears in the evening the SolarKing will stop ventilating but at this time the factory is now cooling naturally as there is no sun. You can also add the optional 240V power pack to allow the SolarKing to keep extracting air at night until the roof temperature drops below 25°C.
So if are looking to make a big change to the comfort levels in your factory and looking to reduce the high costs of power using air conditioners, let the free power of the sun to do the work for you. A cooler workplace will also lead to more productivity.
This model comes with a separate 150W solar panel to boost the air output of the unit
A solar panel mounting kit is supplied as standard, this kit can be used to mount the solar panel either flat on the roof or at an angle you determine.
In the hot Australian summer the SolarKing Exhaust Fan extracts the dry and hot air in the roof. 20x more air than a wind driven Whirly Bird and can reduce roof temperatures by up to 30°.
During the cooler months, the thermostatic control of SolarKing Exhaust Fan prevents heat loss and retaining much needed warmth unlike whirly birds that continue to run.
The SolarKing Exhaust Fan consumes free solar energy, which means no running cost ever.
Also by reducing your roof temperature, your reliance on air conditioning will reduce and lower your energy bills.
The SolarKing Exhaust Fan can be self-installed or you can use one of our approved installers to do the job for you. Just a 320mm opening in the roof will be required.
The brushless DC motor makes the operation quiet and assures the motor will have long life. Being brushless it is also far more efficient compared to other motors so the performance is better.
