Professional Solar Attic Fan Installation in Tallahassee
Solar attic fans are a powerful way to improve your home’s ventilation while reducing energy costs. By harnessing the power of the sun, these fans help regulate attic temperatures by expelling hot air, reducing the workload on your HVAC system. Proper attic ventilation can significantly lower indoor temperatures during the summer, preventing heat from building up in your attic and radiating down into your living spaces.
At Koala Insulation, our solar attic fans are designed to optimize airflow, providing a cost-effective, eco-friendly solution to home ventilation. With no operating costs, solar attic fans are a smart investment that pays for itself over time.
Benefits of Solar Attic Fans
- Energy Efficiency: By reducing attic temperatures, solar attic fans decrease the strain on your air conditioning system, leading to lower energy consumption and utility bills.
- Extended Roof Life: Proper ventilation helps prevent moisture buildup in the attic, which can lead to mold growth and roof damage. Solar attic fans help maintain a balanced attic environment, extending the life of your roof.
- Eco-Friendly: Solar attic fans run on solar power, meaning they require no electricity to operate. This makes them an environmentally friendly solution for home ventilation.
- Temperature Control: Solar attic fans help regulate indoor temperatures, keeping your home cooler in the summer. This makes your living spaces more comfortable while reducing the need for air conditioning.
- No Operating Costs: Because solar attic fans are powered by the sun, they come with no ongoing operating costs, making them a long-term investment in energy savings.

Cannot recommend against this company strongly enough. Their people are very friendly and personable and they promise the moon, but do not deliver it.
We contracted them to insulate a 160 square foot structure with 2x4 framing and were told they would put 3" of closed cell foam in. We were given a very reasonable quote and set a date for install within a month.
Three guys came out to do the work. Two sat in the truck all day complaining at the trainee to hurry up. The trainee refused to wear an air conditioned suit on a 90° June day, meaning he was severely overheated throughout the whole afternoon.
We paid for the job prior to completion and when we went to inspect the work, some areas had not been sprayed at all. We asked for touch-ups and pointed out our concerns. The trainee got right back to work but they didn't put the cellophane back up so all our outlets, light switches, exposed beams, window screens, open pipes, light fixtures, you name it got over spray on them.
We repeated the inspection process two more times. The third inspection occured after sunset so we were unable to see that many areas on the ceiling had less than 1/2" of spray foam. The trainee promised to come back tomorrow to finish up, and true to his word, he did come back.
He came back alone with some cans of spray foam and proceeded to work on removing the vast quantities of over spray. He spent the whole day working in the building, with his large knife cutting into Ethernet cables and cutting chunks out of wooden window casings. The following day his supervisors (the business owners) came out to assist and the three of them spent all day with brillo pads to dull our glossy switches and outlets, insult us for making poor choices, and treat us like children when we asked for another truck to come out and provide the 3" of foam we were promised, stating "we can probably give you $10 for a couple of cans of spray foam"
We worked with corporate, who repeatedly ghosted us, only heard from the franchise one time, when they offered us a 25% refund to attempt to get us to leave them alone, and waited months before performing any ameliorative work on the project ourselves. We eventually spent another 75% of the project cost to complete the insulation job with home kits and despite asking for warranty work, satisfaction guarantee, refund, etc, never got anywhere with the company. We have an open case with BBB which the franchise is ignoring.
We attempted hiring an attorney, who made some small progress with the franchise, but according to him, corporate made it clear that if we pursued legal action, a countersuit was not unlikely and we were going to be made to suffer under the weight of the company's resources, pressuring us to stop pursuing any legal recourse before we lost more money than the original job already cost us.
We have spent nearly a year and a half trimming back overfilled cavities, taking brillo pads to PEX pipes before fitting them, re-wiring Ethernet jacks, sanding off over spray and knife marks from exposed woods, and generally bringing the space back to a build able state following the chaos caused by Koala.
I am certain this company has the capacity to perform quality work but I would strongly discourage anyone from doing business with them, simply on the merit of their business attitude that customers are simply walking wallets and otherwise a nuisance to them.

They added blow-in insulation in our attic. Good people! Arrived on time, worked fast, cleaned up and were on the way after completing their contracted work. Will definitely recommend them when asked.

I value a company that does what it says and provides a quality product. Payne Cook was very easy to talk to and answered all of my questions. Even though the installation team was a member short, they made the extra effort to get the job done well and on time. I would call Koala Insulation again and recommend them to others.

I highly recommend them for your insulation needs. They were friendly, affordable and very professional. No haggling over price or unexpected charges. Everything was cleaned and put back as if after the job was complete. Can’t say enough good things about the service from start to finish.
