The Rotorvent Turbolite is a brand new addition to the well loved Colt Cowl range. The new revolving cowl is more aerodynamic, more efficient and now comes with an additional strap fixing kit included. The same high specifications that have made the original Rotorvent such a popular product are included in this product as standard. Fins are made from stainless steel, and the same fin fixing method which has been tried and tested for many years is still utilised. The main benefits of the Rotorvent Turbolite can be seen on the base of the product. The base is made from pressure die cast aluminium affording a strong and durable finish. The base is 30% lighter than the original Rotorvent whilst maintaining its strength. The rounder, thinner and more aerodynamically designed legs achieve a greater floe of gases through a larger area making the performance altogether superior. Tests indicate that the Turbolite provides even better performance than the original Rotorvent. The fact that the model is lighter also makes it suitable for installation on top of flue systems and mathane vent pipes as well as the traditional chimney pot. Above all these benefits the Turbolite comes complete with 2 fixing methods. The time honoured hook bolt is still the preferred method of fixing Rotorvents but included with the Turbolite is a strap fixing kit. Hook bolts can be tightened in the same way but there is now the option of the strap fixing kit as well for extra security in areas of the country with very high wind speeds. The legs simply attach underneath the wingnut, drop down the outside of the chimney pot or flue where the jubilee clip is then fastened (see illustration above)
