Does this mount to roof or fan framework? Sealant or screws? Current fan as a leak around frame will this help fix?

The leak should be revealed. We called the company and they helped us fix the leak. The cover mounts to the fan framework with screws. It will not fix the leak. Fix the leak by resealing with new screws

This vent mounts to the roof, It comes with screws and I also added sealant to the screws. Hope this helps

Air flow could be a problem. I think a roof vent would be a better choice and last longer. The plastic in these vents deteriorate over time by oxidation.

Mount? No, not without modifying the cooler. Set it up top? Probably fine. Not sure if it would make any difference. I'll order a 140mm fan and place it on top to see if it helps temps.

When I installed my vent, I removed the fan blade (easy to do). Probably not necessary, but I was doing it alone. It seemed to make it easier to line up and mark for the mounting brackets.Everything is still drilled from the outside. In my case, the vent does not quite clear the garage door, so I used wing nuts instead of the standard nuts included, for easy removal.Good luck

It worked for me.This was relatively easy to install and the BIG plus is that I didn't have to replace the roof flashing, replacement of which gets into a whole can-of-worms about resealing the roof. This fan is not quiet like a Fantastic Fan, but it really pulls the air.JM2C

It mounts to the Vent. Hardware provided makes it very simple, and leak free !!!

This attaches to frame of the fan and not to the roof. So i think it will work.

There are clips on the four edges that attach directly to the fan. Seems to hold pretty well, I've had no problems.

I took a single self tapping screw and drilled it through filter into the metal of the fan. Works well in my setup since I have it well supported in the air.

It mounts TO the roof surface.There are videos on YouTube that demonstrate how installation of various models is done.

I did not use them as I solid mounted mine, but normally you use the the plastic "tie downs" though the holes of the fan, then through the springs then through and between the fins of the radiator, this allows the the fan to move/float slightly without actually contacting the radiator or trans/oil cooler and damaging it. differeent ways to attach depends upon needs.

air vent mount. but had to add a custom strap to stabilize it. A small brass strap was used but you will have to drive small screw into dash to secure it

It's fixed like any other boxfan. I've used a book to help angle it when I needed to but I usually use it in the window to get air flowing in from outside.

Yes, this is sealed to the elements. This should be placed where airflow is present for cooling also. The instructions suggest mounting flat and upright but I have mounted these sideways without any problems. I guess it should work fine upside down. Coat wire lugs with Vaseline or dielectric gel. Let me know if you have any other questions. Chris

Broan has rubber cushion like washers for mounting the fan. I think this would reduce vibration rather than noise. If the fan is in an attic area, you might try putting think fiberglass insulation below the fan area but be sure not to block the air flow.

what mounting hardware? Mine is attached to pipe right out of the compressor.

Hi - The solar attic fan will not leak. It comes with flashing etc to prevent leaking in the harshest weather. Its critical that the installer is a professional and knows how to mount and properly use the flashing, caulking etc to prevent leaks.
