how does it mount to a roof and how much sq. ft. will it vent

3 inch hole saw and marine sealant and like 8 screws, I put two on my boat and they vent very little, not really worth the trouble. Cool blue lights though

You will need to drill a hole in the roof then you use a sealer to attach to the roof and make water tight and there is a flange that goes on from the bottom. It will vent a small shed when it gets direct sunlight but if you don't have direc sunlight it is pretty much a static vent.

Each vent includes two screws (at least 2 inches in length) and has predrilled holes in the back and bottom. I screwed mine to to the wall using the screws and predrilled holes in the back which I imagine is the method used most often.

I set mine up to draw fumes or hot air out of my garage. It fit perfectly into the opening of a roof vent. It is only max 400cfm so your volumetric flow is not high, but to move some fumes it works. I found paint spray vapor deposited on my fan blades so it does work somewhat ok. But it is not sealed, spark proof or waterproof so think about your application carefully & be sure you are not creating a hazard

I doubt it-the roof vent frame is a lot thicker from top to bottom as you can see in the image-and requires a multiple layered roof to be able to fit-I would suggest checking out flat vent covers that have a mount frame that fits flush to the roof-or you might consider a side vent

There was no roof vent installed it was side wall vented out of a block foundation basment wall. If you have to roof vent it you can do so in schedule 40 PVC with a typical roof vent.

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

It mounts to the lip of the vent. You drill holes in the lip to mount the vent cover with L brackets and screw the cover to the L brackets. Hope this helps.

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

I am using a standard gable vent spanning the stud distance of 16 inches. I think the vent is about 24 inches high. That works great for my garage attic.

Not at all. The roof 7 to 8 feet high and if there is any heat it's up there and heat rises so it will exit thru the smaller vent roof. Also it's open on all 4 sides so there is no heat build up anywhere. I love my gazebo.

i did not bold it to the ceiling...bolted it to the tail gate of my Samurai...dont know about driling the roof but it does a terrific job of securing the rifle.I plan to stop by a body shop and ask about mounting one to the roof of my chevy...I want to but another for the truck, good product

Yes, the TOP gets very hot. I would guess you would need at least 18 inches of clearance to use it under an outside roof without doing some damage.

You will need to get on the roof to determine what type of vent your rig has. My 5'er had a cap the just popped off. My MH vent is all one piece that is bolted and sealed to the roof. Other than that, follow JKs instructions.

It was installed in our garage and vented through the garage wall with a PVC pipe to the outside side yard and not the roof. I hope this helps you out!

I calculated the area of the fan and the Maxxair. The Maxxair has almost twice the exhaust area. That does not include the area under the Maxxair which rides a good quarter inch above the roof. I am very happy with the Maxxair. The installation instructions explain how to mount on vents with Fan-Tastic fans.

This unit comes vented to the inside. It has the parts to vent it to the outside.

I looked at the dimensions of the ridge vent, at least those commercially available, and I am of the opinion that the 10.5 inches width and height of the vent (above the roof) is beyond the reach of the ladder hook for safe operation. The ladder would be hooked onto the edge of the vent thus putting a strain on the vent, instead of the stable roof shingle.
