Unmatched                       Efficiencies

Our Tower System:

Our 80' Tubular Tower		Our Winch System
	← 80' tubular tower, guyed at 36 and 60 feet. Gin pole shown connected directly to anchor point when tower in upright position.                                                                       → Winch located on step of tower pad, pictured with gin pole up and tower in down position. Raise or lower the tower with the flip of a switch.
Gin Pole Anchor Point		Swivel Brackets on Side Guys
	← The cable from the winch is 4 parted from the anchor point to the gin pole, to allow for a slow and easy pull in raising and lowering the tower.                                                                   → The swivel brackets on the side anchor points allow the guys to easily follow the raising and lowering of the tower.
	Ease of Erection and Maintenance
The entire system pictured above, that allows us to raise or lower the tower in 15 minutes at the flip of a switch, costs about the same as mobilizing a crane to lift the turbine into place one time. Even though our turbine is designed to be maintenance free, it is silly to think the need will not arise to lower the turbine inside a 20 year time frame. Depending on where you live, simply cleaning the bug residue from the blades on a semi-/or annual basis can have a significant impact on the production of the turbine. Bottom line - if you simply want to check something, or if maintenance is required; lowering or raising the turbine will not be a major expense.
