Default Adding roof fan

I saw my father install a turbine fan a while back and would like some
help and info on adding one to my mom's garage.

I thought the thermostatically controlled fan would be best.

Is there a template in the box for the hole size?
I know I will have to remove some shingles, can they be re-used as I
have no orig. replacements?

Garage size is 26 X 30 ft.

Thanks.

Hi,
If I were you, I'd start with a top quality one and get a few spare
shingle pieces(even a bundle does not cost much at HD or Lowe) In my
case I got hold of a roofing guys doing reroofing in the neighborhood. I
aksed them to do it after work for couple bottles of booze. Done well
very quickly. Cost? two bottles of Rye.
