Blade Design

We move more air.

  • Chinook utilizes +92% of surface area for air movement.

  • 80 degree sector angle coverage, compared to 45-60 seen with competitors.

  • Our "fixed wedge" blade design can also be seen is NASA's early spring launches to keep frost off the space shuttle.

  • Moves larger volumes of air with more immediate temperature rises.

  • In a documented test, the Chinook fan blade mixed & moved 3,857,187 CFM of air compared with 1,733,362 CFM of air from another competitive fan blade. 

  • 100% satisfaction guarantee. Buy one of our blades and use it for one year, if it does not improve the scope and reach of your towers frost protection, we will not only refund your money, we will put your old blade back on free!

Gear Drives

Proven durability.

Chinook Gear Box Reliability
  • Chinook gear drives are made of hardened steel alloy, with spiral bevel gears lapped in pairs.

  • 100% Timken B-10 tapered roller bearings that have a working life expectancy of 18,000 hours.

  • A life expectancy 10% greater than any current competitive gear drive.

  • Pressure lubricated and fan cooled. Resulting in oil temperatures at least 20 degrees Fahrenheit cooler, and nearly twice the usable life span of the gear oil when compared to the competition, simply due to the lack of heat related molecular break down.

Towers & Driveline

Built to last.

  • Dynamic spin-balanced for vibration free operation and extended life span.

  • Single slip-joint drive line; substantially reducing  potential wear and vibration that can also damage other components in the tower.

  • 1/4" x 20" diameter on a spiral welded steel tubing.  All towers measure 35' 2" to the center of the fun hub.
