Attic fan noise

Greetings

I am looking at purchasing an attic fan (attic exhaust, not whole house fan) to cool an unventilated 1600 sq ft hip roof attic reaching 130F in Northern CA :-) I will install plenty of soffit venting first.

My question is, I was looking at powered fans (say $100-200) compared to two solar fans ($800+) for obvious price reasons. Example models would be from Broan etc.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a quiet electrical attic exhaust fan that will last well? I am worried about the noise such a 1200cfm fan on the roof may generate...

Thanks

Neil
