Pros
  • No new hole in the roof: it mounts behind an existing gable vent
  • Runs day and night on the included AC/DC adapter
  • Panel on a 30 ft cord can go wherever the sun is best
  • A 15 year warranty and an adjustable thermostat
Cons
  • The HVI rating through a standard louver is under half the headline figure, so louver size matters
  • Sold through the QuietCool store rather than Amazon
