Thank you purchasing the Remington Solar Attic Fan. Please take the time to read through the
entire instructions prior to staring any work.
NOTE: When you first unpack your solar attic fan and place it in the sunlight, it may not
immediately turn on. Check the following:
1. Determine if the outside temperature is 82 degrees Fahrenheit. The built-in thermostat will
prevent the unit from starting below 82 degrees.
2. Make sure the thermostat/humidistat (blue plastic piece) wiring is connected snugly. The
thermostat/humidistat is connected by a simple three pronged plug that should be connected when
your solar attic fan arrives.
3. Make sure the unit is getting sun with no clouds. Sometimes the unit will spin slowly or not at
all with thick cloud cover.
4. If it is cool outside and you want to test your fan, you may cup the thermostat in your hand and
breathe heavily on it. That will typically kick on the fan.
