MENUMENU
Manufacturer and supplier of roof products and accessories for the metal building industry since 1964
Gravity Turbine Ventilator
Turbo Vents provide versatile ventilation through mechanical rotation combined with the natural flow of air and wind. The combination of these factors generates a higher and more consistent rate of air movement when compared to standard stationary gravity vents. Turbo vents may be factory paired with a metal building or conventional / built-up roof curb.
