Meet the Air Hawk 18.4 in. H x 12 in. D Brown Aluminum Turbine and Base, a durable, weather-ready wind turbine vent designed to improve attic and roof ventilation without electricity. Built from corrosion-resistant aluminum and finished in a classic brown, this circular turbine harnesses outdoor breezes to exhaust hot air and moisture, helping to keep living spaces cooler and more comfortable year-round.
Key advantages that set it apart
-
Rugged aluminum construction stands up to wind, rain, and sun, with a UV-resistant finish to maintain its appearance and performance over time.
-
Efficient passive ventilation net free area rating of 95 supports steady airflow, promoting healthier, drier interiors by reducing buildup of heat and humidity.
-
Circular design with a 12-inch diameter base fits standard round openings and integrates cleanly with a wide range of roof profiles.
-
Factory-applied brown finish (not paintable) provides a durable, uniform look that resists weathering without the need for ongoing maintenance.
-
No screen or wildlife guard by design for unobstructed airflow; if you require extra protection, add an appropriate guard separately according to local codes.
-
Air Hawk lineage from Air Vent combines proven reliability with a sleek, understated appearance ideal for homes, barns, and sheds alike.
Ideal uses and practical benefits
This turbine is a smart choice for spaces that need continuous, quiet ventilation powered by wind. Use it on residential attics to reduce heat buildup in hot months, or retrofit barns and workshops where moisture and ammonia from animal spaces can create odors and dampness. By letting warm air rise and escape, it can help lower attic temperatures and improve overall indoor comfort without increasing energy costs.
How it solves common ventilation challenges
Traditional powered vents rely on electrical energy, which can be costly and require maintenance. The Air Hawk turbine delivers a hands-off solution that activates with the wind, delivering reliable airflow even during power outages or in remote locations. Its durable aluminum construction ensures longevity in harsh weather, while the UV-resistant finish helps it look good year after year.
Installation and care tips
For optimal performance, install the turbine on a suitably sized, round opening and ensure it is mounted securely to withstand prevailing wind directions. Keep the area around the vent clear of debris and snow, and perform periodic cleaning with mild soap and water to remove dirt and buildup. Because the finish is not paintable, apply no coatings that could compromise the design or airflow.
Whether you’re upgrading an aging attic vent or outfitting a new outbuilding, the Air Hawk 18.4 in. H x 12 in. D Brown Aluminum Turbine and Base delivers durable, low-maintenance ventilation with a clean, timeless look. Embrace quiet, passive airflow that helps regulate temperature and moisture—without lifting a finger.
