Model RR Roof Turbine Vents – Slash Costs, Boost Exhaust
Model RR roof turbine vents can slash energy costs and boost warm air exhaust. With a new turbine vent system, you can improve air quality with the whisper of a breeze.
Understanding the Mechanics of Model RR Turbine Vents
Turbine vents, also known as hurricane vents, whirlybird vents, or simply turbines, offer an efficient and reliable way to ventilate warm air without incurring any operating costs.
These vents use passive natural ventilation to allow hot and stuffy air to escape from the building. Even the gentlest breeze is enough to spin the turbine and encourage warm air to exhaust from the building. This continuous cycle ensures a consistent exhaust pattern, providing optimal ventilation throughout the day.
A turbine vent moves almost as much air as some similarly sized fans but operates solely on natural wind energy. That means that it doesn’t require any electricity to operate and is the ultimate green ventilation solution. Additionally, the lack of electrical requirements also means there are no motors to replace or belts to repair. This can result in substantial long-term savings for building owners.
Each Moffitt Model RR turbine vent is made of strong, but light, marine-grade aluminum. The turbine glides effortlessly on oil impregnated sintered radial bearings and features a double cap design that prevents misalignment and ensures stability. It also includes a corrugated die-pressed vane and locked-on rotor mechanism. The rotor can be easily removed for inspection, cleaning, etc.
Ease of Installation and Maintenance for Long-Term Benefits
Installing Model RR turbine vents is a straightforward process. The vents can fit on most round roof curbs and can be adapted to fit other curb shapes, providing flexibility for various building structures. In some cases, building operators even replace their fans with turbine vents using the very same roof openings.
Additionally, the installation of turbine vents eliminates the need for costly support steel, as they add no wind load to the building’s roof. This further reduces the overall expenses associated with implementing larger ventilation systems. By choosing turbine vents over fans, building operators can achieve optimal airflow and temperature control while minimizing energy costs.
Sustainability and Environmental Impact of Using Model RR Turbine Vents
Model RR turbine vents promote sustainability and have a positive environmental impact. By harnessing natural wind energy to remove hot air, these vents reduce the reliance on electricity for ventilation. This not only reduces energy consumption but also lowers carbon emissions associated with electricity generation. Furthermore, each unit is made of aluminum, which is often referred to as “the green metal” for its near infinite recyclability.
