Solatube fan works great.
Attic's cooler, house is cooler. Energy bills should be better this month.

Solatube is great.
After I decided to move forward the fan is quiet but powerful.I probably won’t need to cool my upstairs anymore when the temperatures drop at night, as my house collects heat in the master bedroom. Now that I can clear out the warm air in 5-7 minutes, my power bills will decrease

Priceless investment!
We are return customers of Solatube. We initially had our garage fan and was so satisfied with their superb product. So this time around, we had bathroom fans and attic fans. Highly recommended!

These attic fans are amazingly quiet; can't hear them at all in the house. Our A/C systems don't come on as often now. While the attic fans are expensive, the energy savings and comfort outweigh the cost!
