Product Description
The Maxx Air Solar Gable Mount Ventilator is built for ventilating residential attic spaces up to 1,500 sq. ft. and is a great fit for situations in which roof-mounting is impractical. Constructed using a durable galvanized steel shroud and solar panel with tempered cell casings that resist impacting wind, hail, and flying debris. Install using the provided mounting bracket system engineered to minimize vibration and ensure quiet operation. This exhaust fan is designed to prolong the life of composition roof shingles by lowering summer attic temperatures and helps to protect attic insulation against mold and mildew in the winter by removing moisture-filled air. This attic fan is an eco-friendly ventilation option and costs nothing to operate, saving you money! Install behind existing louvers or purchase our shutter model (CX2121AM), and add a thermostat (XXSOLARSTAT) for greater control.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the recommended CFM for an attic fan?
Attic fans are sized based on attic floor area. A common rule is approximately 0.7 to 1.0 CFM per square foot of attic space when proper soffit intake ventilation is present.
Examples:
1,000 sq ft attic → about 700–1,000 CFM
1,500 sq ft attic → about 1,050–1,500 CFM
1,800 sq ft attic → about 1,250–1,800 CFM
Homes in hotter climates or with dark roofing materials may benefit from higher airflow within that range.
Can an attic fan be too big?
Yes — but not for the reason most homeowners think. The real issue is insufficient intake ventilation, not fan power.
If the attic does not have enough soffit or intake vents, a large attic fan can pull air from inside the home instead of outside. This can draw conditioned air through ceiling leaks, increasing cooling costs.
When adequate intake venting is available, a larger attic fan typically improves cooling performance and reduces attic temperature faster.
Will an attic fan cool my house?
An attic fan does not directly blow air into the living space. Instead, it removes trapped heat from the attic.
During summer, attic temperatures often exceed 130°F. That heat radiates through insulation and ceilings into the home. By exhausting the hot attic air, the home’s ceilings and ductwork stay cooler, which helps the air conditioner operate more efficiently and improves upstairs comfort.
Why don’t some people recommend attic fans?
Most negative experiences occur when attic ventilation is incomplete. An attic fan must work together with soffit vents. Without proper intake air, the fan may pull air from the home’s interior instead of outside air.
When properly installed with adequate intake ventilation and an automatic thermostat, a gable mount attic ventilator improves attic temperature control, reduces moisture, and helps protect roofing materials and insulation.
How do I calculate what size attic fan I need?
First measure the attic floor area (length × width). Then multiply by 0.7 to estimate the minimum required CFM.
Example:
1,500 sq ft attic × 0.7 = 1,050 CFM minimum airflow
For hotter climates, sun-exposed roofs, or poor attic airflow, choosing a higher CFM within the recommended range provides better temperature control.
