How does it work?
Sola-boost X-Air has an integrated DC solar powered fan and offers enhanced energy and carbon savings over Windcatcher X-Air with Monodraught’s patented Activlouvre® aerofoil technology as standard.
During normal weather conditions, natural ventilation is provided without any energy consumption. During sunny conditions, a 40W solar PV module situated within the system capping powers the fan. Our patented LINC PowerTrack system delivers a smooth current to maximise the performance of the solar powered fan and increases the fan speed by up to 250%. Other features include external air catchment fins, pressure release vanes and optional solar powered architectural lighting.
Maximum efficiency can be achieved by ensuring the solar panel is installed south facing.
