SolarWhiz 15W Solar Powered Roof Ventilator With Night Kit & Adjustable Thermo/Hygrostat
$1,060.00
The 15W SolarWhiz Solar Powered Roof Ventilator comes complete with both the adjustable thermo/hygrostat and Night kit. The N-OPS kit (Also known as the Constant Current Module) can run during low-light hours, such as heavily overcast days, or night-time. When solar power isn’t providing enough, mains electricity immediately supplements it to ensure continuous operation through a constant current, rather than a simple switch once solar is gone. Once night falls, the system automatically transitions to operate solely on mains electricity, ensuring continuous ventilation throughout the night. Also included is an adjustable digital thermo/hygrostat, allowing you to define the required temperature & humidity for the unit to begin operating at with an easy-to-use interface. These two components combined provide a comprehensive roof ventilation solution.

The SolarWhiz 15W with Night Kit and Adjustable Digital Thermo/Hygrostat is one of our medium–sized solar-powered roof ventilator units. Designed and manufactured in Australia and developed to withstand the harsh Australian climate. Ideal for extracting air from localised areas such as smaller houses or units, second storey of two-storey structures, as well as small shops. It expels heat from your roof and replaces it with fresher, more ambient outdoor air. It uses solar energy to function, keeping the heat away from your home on hot summer days.
The included Adjustable Digital Thermo/Hygrostat provides total control when your Solar Whiz operates, and you can deactivate the system to keep the heat in winter. The Night Kit will run during low-light hours, such as heavily overcast days or night-time, and this enables your Solar Whiz to run on mains electricity.
During daylight hours, the SolarWhiz 15w harnesses the power of the sun through its solar panel to initiate ventilation. However, unlike systems that rely solely on solar power and only switch to mains upon complete depletion, the integrated Night Kit ensures consistent airflow by seamlessly supplementing the solar energy with mains electricity whenever the solar input alone is insufficient. This is a constant-current system, meaning mains power actively supports the solar power in real-time to maintain optimal ventilation performance, rather than waiting for the solar charge to be fully exhausted. This intelligent combination guarantees effective removal of heat and moisture from your roof space, even during partially cloudy days or periods of lower solar intensity.
As night falls and solar energy is no longer available, the SolarWhiz 15W automatically transitions to operate solely on mains electricity, thanks to the Night Kit. This ensures continuous ventilation throughout the night, preventing the buildup of condensation and maintaining a healthy environment within your roof space. This uninterrupted operation, independent of sunlight, provides consistent protection against moisture damage and helps regulate temperature fluctuations, contributing to the longevity of your roof structure and potentially improving the comfort of your living areas below.

How It Works
The Solar Whiz runs whenever there is active sunlight reaching the solar panel, it does not include a battery to continue operation beyond daylight. For most installations dealing with heat within roof space, this is suitable as direct sunlight is often the cause of excessive roof space heat. Solar Whiz is an effective solution for hot roof spaces or home interiors; providing an efficient exchange of hot air from within the property. High volumes of hot air can be extracted from the roof space and/or home interior, thus allowing for a much cooler atmosphere in the ceiling and living spaces.
The included adjustable thermostat provides complete control over when your Solar Whiz operates. During periods of exceptional heat, this can enable the unit to operate earlier, preventing heat build-up. Alternatively, you can deactivate the system to retain heat in winter. The Night Kit can still work during more gloomy days or even throughout the night and enables your Solar Whiz to run on mains electricity once the solar charge has depleted.
Powerful Extraction
Harness the power of the sun to keep cool during summer with the Solar Whiz. During the hot summer months, 25-35% of the heat in your home is generated from your roof space. The Solar Whiz uses solar energy to start operating when the sun rises and helps to keep your roof temperature close to the outside ambient air all day.
Moisture and Condensation Control
It is important for any home to have adequate airflow in order to avoid moisture build-ups which can lead to condensation and the subsequent development of mould or mildew. Therefore, it is essential to take measures that ensure proper ventilation within the home to reduce the risk of such issues.
Application
Our innovative Solar Whiz system is highly versatile. It can easily be integrated into almost any tile or metal roof, ensuring that our vast selection of accompanying accessories can effectively compensate for any complex installation requirements.
Ducted Extraction
The ducting system can be utilized to draw air directly from rooms, providing a highly efficient solution for controlling temperatures as well as preventing condensation. This system can be installed on its own or alongside other roof space extraction setups.
- Powerful ventilation for entire rooms.
- High performance air and condensation extraction.
Roof Space Extraction
Solar Whiz differs from other suppliers in its comprehensive approach to efficiency, extracting hot air from your roof space and replacing it with cooler ambient air through either eaves or ceiling vents. This serves to enhance the unit’s overall performance.
- Decrease the thermal load of your roof space.
- Ducted air conditioners can operate with improved effectiveness.
Ceiling Vent Extraction
Removing air from rooms can be a highly efficient way to bring down the temperature of your home’s interior. This method is particularly advantageous in multistory houses, and it can be used in tandem with evaporative cooling to eliminate surplus humidity.
- Improve the efficiency of your evaporative air-con system through increased air circulation.
- Fresh air is circulated through your living spaces.
