Home » Solar Roof Ventilation Adelaide
We offer a range of Roof Ventilation systems to meet the budget and purpose of the ventilation. From the traditional Australian Whirly Bird to Modern High Quality Australian Made Solar Roof Fans we have your needs covered. Discover the perfect answer to beat Adelaide’s hot and dry summers with solar roof ventilation Adelaide.
Designed to improve air circulation and reduce heat buildup, these advanced Solar Fans are the eco-friendly way to maintain a comfortable living space in the Adelaide city, Suburbs and Surrounds. Adelaide summers continue to get hotter and so do our homes. Roof temperatures in Australia during summer often reach 50 to 70°C or more. At this level your ceiling insulation struggles. Solar-powered roof vents harness the sun’s energy to power a fan that extracts hot air, reducing heat buildup in your roof space. This helps maintain a cooler home interior, reducing air conditioning needs and thus saving energy costs. Make your home or business cooler in summer using solar exhaust fans like the SolarKing Roof Ventilator Fan or the Solar Whiz Roof Ventilator Fan.
A cheaper alternative is the traditional whirlybird which relies on high winds to produce any benefits. Even then they only move around 100CBM per hour for each unit. Compare this to the SolarKing that moves 2100CBM per hour or the Solar Whiz that moves 2300CBM per hour and there is no comparison.
At Paint a Roof, we supply and install high-quality solar fans for Adelaide and Economic Whirly Birds to improve your home’s comfort and energy efficiency.
The Whirly Bird Roof Fan has been an effective, energy-efficient solution for enhancing ventilation in residential and commercial properties. Here’s a breakdown of its key features:

Yes, solar ventilation fans and whirlybirds are versatile and can be installed on metal, tile, and terracotta roofs. We offer installation services tailored to different roof types, including terracotta roof restoration and metal roof repairs for optimal performance.
Installation typically takes a few hours, depending on your roof’s condition and structure. We ensure a quick, efficient process to minimise disruption to your home.
Yes, solar roof vents operate effectively even on overcast days, although their performance is highest in direct sunlight. They continue to circulate air and provide cooling benefits under most weather conditions. The motor keeps a stable speed when operating on solar rather than instantly speeding up and slowing down as clouds go past. This means the motor still runs at max speed in full sun but won’t suddenly slow down and speed up when clouds pass.
All SolarKing fans now come with a DC power connection. Now you can connect a 15V/240V Power pack so the fan can now operate after the sun goes down. The unit will switch to the power pack automatically and then when the solar level increases again the unit will switch back to solar operation.
No. The unit is temperature controlled and will turn off automatically when the temperature drops below 25 degrees. In fact some of the units will reverse in winter and bring warmer outside air into the colder roof cavity;
Yes, placement is crucial. Solar roof ventilation fans should ideally be installed on the sunniest part of the roof to maximize exposure to sunlight. Additionally, the fan should be placed near the highest point of the roof for efficient heat and moisture extraction. The SolarKing also has an adjustable solar panel designed to be best angled to gain maximum benefit from the sun.
While some DIY enthusiasts may feel confident handling the installation, professional installation is recommended to ensure the system is correctly positioned and securely mounted for optimal performance. Professionals also ensure proper sealing to prevent leaks. Finally working on roofs is high risk with 30% of fall hospitalisations coming from ladders alone.
