Solar Ventilation Fan for Dogs Kennels & Cats Cages

nurkasih · #1 10-20-2009, 04:28 PM

Just wanna share..

I was googling to search for some sort of fan for my cats cage as both of my cats are developing allergy to heat ( as my big cage is outside the house).. I came across this website http://scorigin.com/solar_fan__ventilation.. Malaysia based and can be considered cheap.. and it does not requires any electricity / electrical plug.

If any of you are in similar condition with mine and searching for one.. this one will be a good start to solve your problem.. I have no idea how easy it is to install as I just submitted my order..

Regards

p/s this one would be useful for outdoor cage where you need to install the curtain blind for the cage to avoid the cats from being soaked by the rain water.. My cage is big and the roof does not cover 1/2 of the cage ( tempias hujan).. so I install blinds for the cage and the cage becomes enclosed...

SOLAR VENTILATION FAN

RM198 (US$59.95)

This durable, weatherproof solar powered ventilation fan is great for boats, vans, RVs, mobile homes, dog houses and more! Operates only when in direct sunlight.

This solar vent extracts 680 cubic feet of air per hour under normal operation. For example, an RV that is 14 feet long, 5 1/2 feet wide and 6 feet high would take less than 45 minutes to completely change the air.

Tips
To calculate the cubic feet of a space you wish to vent, multiply the length X width X height (in feet).
Then, to calculate the number of minutes it would take to completely change the air in that space you would divide the cubic feet by 680 and then multiply X 60.

Comes with a gasket and installs in a 5" diameter opening.

This is a smart pollution-free, environmentally conscious solution to venting and cooling many outdoor enclosed spaces with solar exposure.

Your dog will be happier with the solar ventilation fan to cool down their house temperature!

Sbb dia kat luar so saya terpaksa letak blind suapaya ujan tak tempias... so tiap kali ujan kena ada orang turunkan blind.. kalau tak tutup..al mandilahs emua kucing2 sayer... so saya ingat nak tutup dalam 3/4 kalau dah ada mende nieh.. even dog kennel pun depan tueh terbuka... supaya nanti takderlah kucing2 sayer panas/ berhujan and saya nak terasa hati ngan family yang ada kat umah tak tolong turunkan blind tueh..

Kalau tak ujan and tutup blind tueh terjelir2 lidah si Bob lah jawabnyer... oleh kerana takut diornag berhujan..saya tutupkan 3/4 ... kalau saya kat umah and hujan saya turunkan..tak ujan saya akan bukakan blind tueh..

masalah sekarang bila i takder kat umah.. and blind tueh sentiasa tertutup..

reflective sheet tuh diletakkan dibwh atap..bukan atas atap..usually mereka akan pasang reflective sheet dulu then baru pasang atap. like mine rangka atap tuh disalut dulu ngan reflective sheet,then baru paku atap zink.then from inside saya letak polisterin keping2 tuh..konon2 cam syiling rumahlah. kalu nak get a better view,gi tgk kat perumahan yg tgh buat,then tgk how they install their roof.lebih kurang je caranya..

tul juga cakap cookies tu..

saya rasa kan kasih,benda alah tu tk sesuailah..kalau nak beli sekalipun,nk beli berapa biji?dengan keadaan cuaca skrg ni,haihhh saya rasa tk dpt nk tampunglh benda tu.kalau hujan,tak kisah sgt,kalau panas.lagi2 dlm pulau ni,jgn ceritalah tahap kepanasan dia....

cage awak tu kasih,letak batu bata kt bawah tu..kasi tinggi sikit..baru air tak memercik sgt...

selain tempat yg ada,ada lagi tak tempat lain yg sesuai nk letak cage tu?

Actually nak kata panas sangat sangat terik tueh takderlah..kalau kita duduk dalam tue..leh lagi nak tido...sbb depan tueh ada pokok mempelan besau... teduh cket..tapi ada certain days ayng matahri kuat...dalam kul 2/3 petang tueh.. Itu yang kadang2 sayer kesian tueh.. kalau sayer ada kat umah..kalau bukak blind tueh angin masuk menderu.. tapi masalah bila sayer takder nieh... tue yang problem tueh...

Ingat nak try letak reflector macam cookies cakap tueh ngan polistrin.. tengok jadik tak.. kalau tak ,nak order menatang solar tueh lah..

Cage tueh nak letak bata... takder orang nak angkat Rock... 2 ornag tak terangkat..saya nak angkat pun haram tak angkat seinci pun.. itu solid besi yang buat pagar ngan grill tueh..

bayangkan dalam tueh 3 ornag leh tido melintang dalam tueh.. berat giler.. g pun kaki dia memang asal tak sama..diorang adjust kaki dia lain2 tiggi nak accomadate level lantai yang tak sama... Mau pecah bata kalau tak bersimen...hehehe

memang takder tempat lain dah..depan tue je ada pokok mempelam..kalau saya letak kat belakang..alamat jadik sausage..

lagipun tak muat.. cage baru tue besau...

p/s dulu masa cage kecik diornag kat belakang tueh..tiap kali kul 12 saya bawak masuk umah...so tak kena kepanasan tueh..

i check the price of reflector yesterday(untuk shop n cage) kat sini jual rm55 untuk 4kaki lebar n 30 meter panjang. kalu kat penang tak tau lah..tapi rasenye tak jauh beza kot.mende nih boleh beli per-meter.yg rm55 nih per-gulung.yg nih 1 sided reflector.kalu double sided reflector rm75.ukuran sama.
