Greenovations – U.S. Sunlight Corp’s Natural Light Energy SAF20B Solar Attic Fan
An energy efficiency expert once told me – “If your house can “breathe” it not only saves energy, the house will live longer.”
U.S. Sunlight Corp’s Natural Light Energy Solar Attic Fan provides the homeowner with a product that can make your home healthier and more energy efficient, while also lengthening the life of your heating and air conditioning units and roof. And all of this can be “powered” by the sun.
Here is U.S. Sunlight Corp’s description of the Natural Light Energy Solar Attic Fan:
Advantages of the Natural Light Energy Solar Attic Fan
Minimize backpressure of exhaust gases
Maximize the exposure of the sun to the solar panel
Minimize the ambient temperature of the solar panel because power output rapidly declines as temperature increases
Adaptable to any location, roof type, in any environment
Essential Information
The Natural Light Energy SAF20B Solar Attic Fan is a simple and environmentally sensible solution that can save you money. Powered completely by free solar energy, this sleek and efficient vent is both compact and quiet. Fully operational right from the box, it installs easily, with no electrical wiring, no expensive electrician and city permits. And let’s not forget powerful! A single 20 watt unit can fully vent up to 2,000 square feet, operating at up to 1,275 cfms.
Place it wherever you need improved circulation; attics, lofts, workshops, storage sheds, garages, even barns. Attic venting is an important aspect in maintaining a healthy energy efficient home. Proper venting cools your roof extending the material life and reduces the load on your air conditioning system. Attic venting also increases fresh air circulation which reduces vapor build up generated by every day activities like showering and cooking.Excess moisture trapped in your attic can cause a variety of problems from rust and rot to increased bacteria and mold counts which can have a direct impact on your respiratory health! Passive vents have been a part of building codes for years. Soffit vents, ridge vents and louvers rely on nature to provide sufficient air pressure and air movement. So the majority of the time your attic is stagnant and continues to build up heat and moisture.

As the Marketing Director from U.S. Sunlight, I wanted to clear up some of the confusion presented in this article. At U.S. Sunlight we manufacture several different attic fans, however “Natural Light SAF20B” is not one of our products. Our Solar Attic Fans and SunFans are award winning products, receiving “Best of Show” at the 2011 National Hardware Show and “Best Sustainable Product of 2011″ by BUILDERnews. Our models include, but are not limited to: 9910TR, 9912TR, 1010TR, 9910TRP, US1110, 1010TR/HW, 9915TR along with our Solar Powered All Purpose Ventilators: 9910APV, 1010APV and 1015APV. To accessorize any of our Solar Attic Fans, we also now have the Solar Controller, an innovative device allowing the homeowner to monitor the temperature and humidity levels in the attic space along with the operating status of the fan. Additionally, the Solar Controller provides the homeowner to connect their U.S. Sunlight solar attic fan to house power for operation into the evening on house power while utilizing solar power when available.
