MaxBreeze Solar Powered Roof Ventilation
THE SOLAR ROOF VENTILATION FAN WITHOUT EQUAL
If you’re looking for energy-efficient, environmentally-friendly ventilation solutions for your home, look no further than MaxBreeze solar-powered roof fans. Designed and manufactured to the highest standards, MaxBreeze solar fans even include a model with an in-built lithium battery, allowing your fan to operate when the sun isn’t shining.
Easy to install and with no ongoing electricity costs, solar-powered fans are the best way to keep your home cool during summer.
MaxBreeze solar fans are controlled by a thermostat, meaning the fan automatically turns on as your roof cavity warms up. The fan is powered by a solar panel that produces free electricity, extracting hot air and moisture from your roof space.
Not only do MaxBreeze solar fans keep your home cool, but they also reduce moisture build-up in the roof cavity. Moisture can lead to expensive damage in your home, and roof ventilation is the best way to combat it. You’ll also save energy, because these solar-powered fans keep your home cool in summer which reduces how hard your air-conditioner needs to work.

HOW DOES MAXBREEZE SOLAR ROOF VENTILATION WORK?
The MaxBreeze solar-powered roof fans take their inspiration from traditional Whirly-Bird ventilation, except MaxBreeze brings the technology into the 21st century. Using solar power to run and a thermostat to turn the fan on and off, MaxBreeze is the energy-efficient, eco-friendly roof ventilation solution.
- Sunshine on your roof begins to heat your roof cavity, often up to 70°C. While passive vents allow some circulation, they don’t force the hot air out. That means the heat ends up in your living spaces, and also causes moisture in the roof cavity.
- MaxBreeze’s thermostat automatically turns the fan on when the roof cavity reaches 30°C, with clean, green solar energy from a roof panel powering the fan.
- The MazBreeze fan quietly pushes hot air out of the roof cavity, lowering the cavity temperature.
- MaxBreeze is thermostatically controlled to turn on and off automatically.
