Solar Roof Ventilator Installation

Solar Roof Ventilator

Solar roof vents are an innovative solution designed to enhance the ventilation of your home. These eco-friendly systems offer a range of advantages that cater to the comfort and energy efficiency needs of Australian households.

If your roof has sarking these won’t work as well, as the roof space is sealed, but there are still plenty of gaps in a roof where air can flow through. You can always call us at AllCoast Roofing for advice.

Main advantage of Solar Vents

The advantage of solar vents over standard is that on a hot windless day these are still spinning removing heat where a standard vent almost completely stops.

Can Solar Roof Vents Work At Night?

Solar roof vents are only functional during daylight hours when the sun is shining.

How much does a solar ventilator cost?

The price of a solar roof ventilator is $990 inc. GST. When compared to the recommended 2-4 quality whirly birds ($495 each for our wind-driven WindMaster Whirlybirds) for a standard home, a single solar roof ventilator is more cost effective.

Reviews of Solar Vents installed by AllCoast

Had a whirlybird removed and a new one installed by Allcoast Roofing Service - very happy with their service and workmanship. They replied to me quickly with a quote, suggested whirlybird colours to match my roof, and provided a timeframe for installation (which was met!). Installation was a breeze and the new whirlybird looks great. Thanks Wayne, appreciate your great service
