Tornado Roof Ventilators

Why Tornado Roof Ventilation Matters

During summer, roof temperatures can exceed 60°C in many parts of South Africa. Without proper ventilation this heat becomes trapped inside the roof cavity and eventually transfers into the living or working area below. It is for this reason that Tornado Roof Venitlators are the best option.

Proper Tornado roof ventilation helps to:

• Remove trapped hot air
• Reduce roof space temperatures
• Improve indoor comfort
• Reduce moisture and condensation
• Extend roof life
• Improve insulation performance
• Reduce mould growth
• Lower cooling costs
• Improve air circulation
• Help protect timber roof structures

Tornado Whirlybird Ventilators

Whirlybird ventilators are wind-driven turbines that rotate naturally using even light wind conditions. As the turbine spins, it continuously extracts hot air from the roof cavity without requiring electricity.

Benefits

• No electricity required
• Operates automatically
• Silent operation
• Low maintenance
• Durable aluminium construction
• Rust resistant
• Long service life
• Suitable for homes
• Suitable for factories

Works Perfectly With Ceiling Insulation

For the best thermal performance, roof ventilators should be installed together with quality ceiling insulation.

Excellent combinations include:

• Aerolite Insulation
• Knauf Insulation
• Factorylite Insulation
• Isotherm Insulation
• Summit XPS Ceiling Boards
• Isoboard Ceiling Boards

Together they reduce heat entering the building while allowing trapped roof heat to escape.
