Professional Solar Attic Fan Installation in Chicagoland
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.

We got several quotes for an attic insulation upgrade. Koala was very through in inspecting the attic and then educating us on the work to be done. Koala completed the project promptly and the crew cleaned up thoroughly when they were done. We were provided with before and after pictures showing details of what was done. They also installed a solar powered attic fan that is very quiet and effective compared to our old one.
Thank you to Chris and his attentive staff!

The Koala Insulation Team (Pablo, Aidan, Chris M. and C.J.) spent 1.5 days in our home. They displayed a wonderful professional attitude: prompt, friendly, wise and hard working.
Our project was a bit different than most, as the CJM Roofers needed to open an area of our roof so Koala could do their work in an otherwise inaccessible attic space.
The Koala Team worked in tandem with the roofers to complete their task in a timely manner without causing delay with the overall project timeline saving us $.
So well done!
Grateful and would highly recommend Koala Insulation of Northern Illinois for your project!

The Koala Insulation team (Aidan, Nate, Christopher and Chris) were extremely polite and professional, not to mention these guys hussle. They tested my home's air flow, sprayed sealed around the electrical fixtures in the attic, verified that the baffles were unobstructed & secured and topped off the insulation. Then the absolute cherry on top was the solar powered attic fan. This fan totally exceeded my expectations. It has totally changed the level of comfort on the 2nd floor. Instead of feeling that change in temperature going up the stairs, it's not more consistent with the 1st floor. These guys are awesome and I totally trust their work and expertise. Give them a call ASAP, you will not be disappointed.

We bought an older 1957 house recently and discovered that the attic was severally under insulated and not air-sealed at all.
Koala was amazing and Lewis and team were excellent. Their attention to detail showed in their air sealing and they blew in fiberglass insulation and now we have R60 up there!
The owner even called me to inform me that we did not have soffits so he was very honest and took off the rafter vent installation saving us some money!
Koala does fantastic work at a fair price and the owner takes pride in his team. They did great work and cleaned up very well after they left.
I would recommend Koala to anyone looking to raise their insulation value or replace some old insulation in their house!
