1. Solar Powered Ventilation Fans
Ventilation fans of any kind are always a good idea since they help you reduce cooling costs by venting the hot air out of attic spaces and other areas. These exhaust fans are usually linked to the household electrical current, which somewhat contradicts the energy-saving purpose.
Nowadays, however, you can purchase self-contained roof vent fans that have a small panel of photoelectric cells that run the fan motor without using any household electrical current. Small roof-mounted units are great for keeping a shed, doghouse, chicken coop, or garage cool in the summer. You can also use free-standing solar-powered fans on your patio or children’s play area.
