Abstract

Embodiments of the invention are directed to a solar-powered ventilation system for mounting to a building. Through the use of internal dampers and destratification intake doors, the system is able to cool the inside of buildings by way of hot-air venting or cold-air induction methods. Further, the system may also be configured in a combinatory manner, allowing the building to be cooled by the simultaneous use of hot-air venting and cold-air induction methods.
