WhirlyPro installs Australian-made solar roof
ventilators in the Gap. Reduce heat & mould with 700m3/hr airflow. Free quotes. 10-year warranty.
The Gap summers are hot and humid, with January daytime temperatures averaging around 30°C and sticky, wet afternoons through the storm season. Set in a leafy bushland valley, homes here trap heat fast in the roof and grow uncomfortable. WhirlyPro’s Australian-made solar ventilators pull more than 700m³ of hot air out every hour, keeping The Gap homes cooler and drier on free solar energy.
The Gap is a leafy suburb in north-western Brisbane, set in a bushland valley between the D’Aguilar Range and Enoggera Hill. It shares Brisbane’s humid subtropical climate, with summer highs around 30°C, and the sheltered valley setting can hold warm air over homes, turning roof cavities into heat traps that radiate warmth into living spaces long after sunset.
Humidity is the bigger challenge. Brisbane’s storm season from November to March brings heavy downpours and sticky, high-humidity days, and without active airflow that damp air becomes trapped in the roof space. Over time this condensation drives mould growth and slowly damages timber framing and insulation, a real concern for the bushland-fringed homes across The Gap.
WhirlyPro is built for this heat and humidity combination. Its solar-powered system with a smart thermostat extracts over 700m³ of hot, moist air every hour, even on still, muggy days, keeping homes more comfortable, protecting the roof from moisture damage, and running on renewable energy with zero ongoing costs.

“The western sun used to bake our metal roof and turn the kitchen into a furnace by midday. WhirlyPro set up top-ridge extraction, and now the cool breeze off the Enoggera reservoir actually keeps the place comfortable.”
“Living tucked right up against the bushland means zero airflow around our tile roof, trapping muggy heat all weekend. WhirlyPro sorted our ceiling cavity out in one morning, and our split-system isn’t working overtime anymore.”
“Our high-pitched roof space was holding onto intense summer heat until 10 PM, keeping the kids awake every night. WhirlyPro got the hot air cycling out proper, and the indoor temp drops the moment the afternoon shade hits.”
A whirlybird needs wind to spin. WhirlyPro is solar-powered and motorised, actively pulling 700m³ of hot air out per hour even on still days.
No. It runs entirely off its own solar panel — zero added to your power bill.
Yes. It runs on daylight, and the smart thermostat prioritises the hottest, most humid conditions.
No. It's sealed and weather-rated, drawing air out while keeping rain, insects, and debris out.
Depends on roof size and layout — we'll recommend the right number for your home.
