Roof Ventilation Turrets

Roof ventilation turrets use external wind and temperature to improve indoor air quality iaq as part of a sustainable ventilation system.

Roof ventilation turrets.

Application designed to act as rooftop weathered ventilation terminals the turret tops can be operable either for additional ventilation or for roof access egress. Features and benefits highly aerodynamically efficient this reduces air resistance allowing the plant to be minimised thereby saving running costs. The idea of roof vents existed for hundreds of years with natural vents employed in chinese buildings during the tang dynasty natural ventilation ducts in the buddhist monks caves and wind catchers incorporated in arabian architecture. Ventilation turrets perform especially well in a classroom environment when coupled with our controllable dampers and control panels.

Vent roofs with steeples towers or cupolas can be found in different buildings from barns to cathedrals. Unlike mechanical ventilation systems natural ventilation uses a minimal amount of energy and is subsequently cost efficient. Roof turrets are also available in a complete range of finishes and materials from standard mill finish and polyester powder paint finish to anodised and stainless steel. Our attractive grp roof turrets can be used simply for their aesthetic appeal or for specific functions a clock tower to carry a weathervane as a source of natural light or as a venting outlet.

Most of our roof turrets can be adapted to offer a means of achieving inlet and outlet ventilation with the addition of aluminium ventilation louvres whilst providing an attractive architectural enhancement of the property on which they are installed.
