Features

  • Solar-Powered Ventilation System: Shipping container vent that operates using solar power, eliminating the need for electricity regardless of your container's location. The vent ventilates your shipping container whenever the sun is shining, and even when the sun is not out, hot air can still escape through the solar roof vent since hot air rises
  • Enhanced Air Circulation Benefits: Conex shipping container vents provide numerous benefits when coupled with lower intake vents placed low on the shaded side. With proper intake and exhaust vents on your shipping container, the uniform air movement will refresh the air inside your container every couple of minutes depending on the cfm and size of container, preserving the contents while creating a more pleasant working environment
  • Designed for 3.5 Inch Roof Ribs: This shipping container vent's flashing fits shipping containers with roof ribs that measure 3.5 inches. Please see our measuring video below so you can measure your ribs correctly before buying. We also offer 6.5 inch rib vents so please measure first
  • All-Metal Construction: All metal designed solar roof vent fan for shipping containers helps prevent stuffiness and overheating. Our solar-powered vents for shipping containers help protect your shipping container's content by supporting uniform air movement throughout your shipping container through the use of our solar-powered exhaust vents coupled with intake vents at the bottom of your shipping container's side walls
  • Available Color Options: Color available in Galvanized finish, also offered in powder-coated white
  • High-Performance Fan Specifications: Two-ball bearing, 80mm, 2900rpm, 35.2cfm fan that is rated for 50,000 hours of operation
  • Durable Solar Panel: 4.5W solar panel with 25-year rating provides reliable long-term performance
  • Manufacturer Warranty Coverage: 5 year manufacturer limited warranty included for your peace of mind

Description

Our Solar Blaster Conex line of accessories bring ventilation and lighting solutions to shipping containers that are being used for storage or work spaces. Breathe fresh air, help protect your belongings from the build up of hot air & moisture, and bring natural sunlight into your container. Finally Vents for Your Shipping Container We have taken our very popular Solar RoofBlaster vent fan and designed a special all-metal, form-fitting flashing that will sit flush on top of a shipping container! The vent itself always works as a passive vent 24 hours a day, rain or shine. Rib Size of your Shipping Container It is critical that you measure the top most flat portion of the raised ribs on your shipping container. We offer two rib sizes: 3.5" and 6.5" products. See below for how to measure your shipping container's ribs. This is a very important step BEFORE ordering any of our Conex products. When the sun is shining, it will power up the fans to help boost the effectiveness of removing the hot air building up inside your steel shipping container. We offer two different sized solar roof vent fans for all of our products. We suggest one solar fan every 8-10 feet. There is no need for an off/on switch. When the sun is shining on the panel, the vents will do their job. At night, the vents still allow air movement passively. Intake Vents are crucial The key to ventilation is uniform air movement across the space you are trying to vent. Placing our 2.5" intake vents low on the shady side of your shipping container will bring cooler air in to help push the hot air out through the vents. You need intake vents to make this magic happen so do not forget this shipping container accessory. Measure the top-most flat section of your shipping container's raised ribs where you plan to install our ventilation product. The image above shows a 3.5" rib size. This image above shows a 6.5" rib size. This size is less common than the 3.5" rib so please do NOT skip this step! Measure! Measure! Measure! Next, place a flat edge across two of your container's raised ribs and measure the height. It should be about ¾ of an inch. Now that you know your measurements, you can choose the correct product for your specific shipping container. Solar Blaster's line of Shipping Container Vents is the ultimate shipping container accessory. Get rid of trapped heat and moisture in a Conex shipping container. This accessory is an ideal ventilation solution for your Conex shipping container. Unlike the plastic vents on the market, this metal solar roof vent fan solution is designed to last. CONTENTS INCLUDE: HOW MANY VENTS DO I NEED? We suggest one vent for every 8-10 feet. BENEFITS: Cool air will come in from intake vents and will exhaust out of the Solar RoofBlaster vent. This uniform air movement helps keep your container cooler and more dry. DOES THIS FAN INCLUDE A THERMOSTAT OR ON/OFF SWITCH? No, it is not needed. Ideally, the fan should run in the summer to remove excessive heat, and in the winter to remove moisture to prevent condensation. And whenever the sun isn't out, the vents will still work passively since hot air always rises. Depending on where your shipping container is located, you may decide that a solar roof vent that has the ability to tilt the panel toward the sun may be even more effective. Solar Blaster has you covered! We also now offer a side-mounted adjustable shipping container vent. No matter what your needs are -- we likely have the shipping container accessory you need. Be sure to check out our store to find other shipping container accessories like our tubular skylights. We are always available to discuss your shipping container's needs. So feel free to reach out to us.

  • Well worth the cost
Installed in a conex used for storage. It works great making the temperature much better to enter. Installation was pretty easy.

Purchased and installed in preparation of a hot summer to keep our belongings from baking. Fan starts up with the sun. Installation was not tough, follow the provided instructions.

  • Pretty good
Doesn’t move as much air as I hoped, but it’s keeping the moisture out. Little bit of time installing it.

  • Space Size
Does not work that great in the sq ft it says. You would need prob 3 of them in the sq ft they say one covers.

  • The customer service is worth buying from them.
Works great. I would suggest 2 for a 40ft container. Customer service is probably The best of any company I have ever seen. FaceTime communication and very very easy to work With..

  • fan works fine support hardware lacking
I liked the fan assembly fan was secure and ran fine in the direct sun. self-tapping screws were so cheap i needed to go to the hardware store and buy better ones. at least 50 % of the screws failed to self-tap. also the rubber gasket was a bit to small and didn't align with the predrilled holes. had to finagle the gasket to get all of the screws to catch a piece of gasket. all in all, fan was good support hardware was not. ... show more

  • Don't really perform as advertised
The construction of these aren't too bad. But I'm not sure the tiny fan inside will actually pull air out of the container. I installed two today and will wait to see if they actually do anything before I buy more. For what they are they are really expensive and I thought the fan would actually be larger. And you need full sun to get these to run a little cloudy and you're out of luck. One year follow up: This was a poor purchase. They do very little to keep the container cool. The fans are so small that they really don't help move the air. I will take them out and try to replace them with something that fills the whole opening. ... show more
