What application is the
Honeywell Wind Turbine best suited for?

The Honeywell Wind Turbine (Honeywell Wind Turbine) is designed for residential, small business and commercial applications, generating energy where we consume it, even in low wind speeds

What happens in high winds?

All functions of the HTW are controlled by a computerized Smart Box connected to an anemometer, constantly reading wind speed and direction. The Honeywell Wind Turbine Smart Box interacts with the turbine’s motor, optimizing the turbines’ positioning, maximizing wind capture (up to 42mph) and turning into the wind, when exceeding 42mph. The Honeywell Wind Turbine is certified to industry safety and electrical standards.

What is the composition of the turbine? What is its rating?

Our turbine is rated for gusts of wind up to 90 mph. It is primarily made out of UV resistant nylon and anodized aluminum to withstand a variety of elements.

Is the Honeywell Wind Turbine a replacement for a backup generator?

This will depend on if you are utilizing a grid-interactive or non-grid energy management system. The OutBack Power System is a non-grid system that stores power and can be used when the grid is down.

What happens in ice and snow?

The Honeywell Wind Turbine is designed to handle the elements. Freezing rain will certainly slow the unit down and could keep the unit out of service until it thaws. The Honeywell Wind Turbine was developed with maintenance in mind. With far fewer moving parts than traditional turbines, service and maintenance is greatly reduced. Most parts can be quickly replaced, including the bearings and blades.
