Tile Roof Fan Options

For tile, slate, or other thicker roofing material, you have 2 choices: our exclusively designed model for tile roofs – the Tile Profile Fixed Panel Model or our Adjustable Panel Roof Mount Model with a Turret Extension. Most tile installations will also need a Flashing Tile Skirt to ensure a watertight installation.

OPTIONAL ACCESSORY

Turret Extension for Roof Mount Model

The standard Adjustable Panel Roof Mount fan can also be used on tile roofs. To accommodate thicker roofing material, Natural Light designed a Turret Extension which can be purchased separately. This extender raises the housing portion of the fan 3 inches to clear the thicker tiles. The Turret Extension is easily installed by removing the existing housing bracket and replacing it with the Turret Extension.

NATURAL LIGHT ACCESSORY

Tile Roof Flashing Skirt

Most solar attic fan installations on tile roofs will need an additional flashing skirt. The custom designed flashing skirt is installed over the solar attic fan flashing to ensure a weather-tight installation.

The flashing skirt is made of a soft, heavy-gauge aluminum that molds over any tile shape. The rubber seal fits over the base unit. The steps to install a solar attic fan on tile roofs are slightly different than a standard installation. Please refer to our detailed installation instructions.

EASY INSTALLATION: Natural Light solar attic fans are fully assembled right out of the box. Installation requires basic DIY skills and can be completed in about 1 hour.
