1. Minimize backpressure of exhaust gases.
• Incorporates an angled throat within the flashing that provides a venturi effect, which increases airflow.
• Designed from the ground up to minimize obstructions in the flashing and shroud.
2. Maximize the exposure of the sun to the solar panel.
• American Dream designed a mounting bracket that houses the solar panel that allows for angling the panel.
• American Dream offers an optional special order remote solar panel which is installed away from the attic fan housing. It is used in applications where there is limited sunshine where the unit is to be installed. The remote panel is installed in a sunny area, capturing maximum amount of sunlight and therefore achieving optimal attic fan performance.
3. Minimize the ambient temperature of the solar panel because power output rapidly declines as temperature increases.
• American Dream powder coats the entire assembly, inside and out, in a neutral gray color thus ensuring that it does not act like a heat sink.
• The solar panel mounting bracket allows for an envelope of cool air to continually circulate around the entire solar panel.
4. Adaptable to any location, roof type, in any environment.
• Constructed of .080 (14 gauge) aluminum, the flashing and shroud are seamless ensuring weather tight installations.
• Stainless steel animal protection screen.
• Stainless steel hardware throughout.
• Powder coated to withstand any environment.
• Fifty year Neutral Cure silicone bonds the flashing to the roof.
