New Designs For 2017

The Tunnel Series Technology enables an almost endless variety of shapes and sizes of exhaust vents for any application. The RV designed Siphon has been our benchmark in regards to airflow performance, its light wind sensitivity, high draw rate and its no fail operation is unparalleled. Its taken two years of engineering, numerous models and testing requiring hundreds of adjustments to achieve that spec, but now we have the following products all pulling out the same airflow characteristics in relation to their port size, as per the 360 Siphon.
360 Vortex Roof Vent
The product is designed to fit into the standard 14" x 14" RV roof vent frame. All the airflow operational aspects of the design are complete, including water barrier tests. Production design is the next phase of development.

The working model pictured above was built purely for performance, not aesthetics, that will be addressed next.
Its purpose is to exhaust indefinitely, without power or any moving parts. It can be left open, rain, rooftop pollen, heat, smog cannot blow in. This would replace the standard crank up vent and shroud (maxxair) as well as eliminate the need of a fan. Due to its size and complexity we do not expect production until the end of the year

Mobile Roof Vent
The product parallels the above RV roof vent, basically allowing for continuous exhaust without noise or power drain
The design has a more efficient base and port than the RV version due to it not having to attach to a predetermined size and shape.
This unit has a much smaller footprint with only a 4" round port for penetration, as pictured below
Applications: commercial Vehicles, delivery vans and trucks, small campers, etc.

Low Profile Shipping Container Vent
Still in design stage. The prototypes are functioning but a good draw rate is difficult to obtain due attempting to keep the vent inside the side wall profiles. The prototype pictured below is presently produces about 20 times more airflow than the industry standard rectangular vent also pictured. The purpose is to enhance the draw rate and air circulation to prevent extreme temperature swings for reduction of interior condensation.
Will keep updated

Marine Dry Vent
The Marine Port Cover (as listed on the home page) does not keep water out of the port it is protecting. This vent has a built in port that stays dry, similar to the Mobile and RV Roof vents. This vent can be installed on a deck or hatch or on the side of a boat, or for that matter the side of any vehicle. The design is in the early stages. The uses will vary so chances are the present name will be changing. This could be another option for the mobile roof vent, a side mount installation versus a roof top. Planing low volume production by spring 2017
Due to the importance of aesthetics for this product a picture will be available once we have it looking better than the present prototype.

Open Window: Natural Ventilation for the Home
This design is also in the early stages. The vent body is a transparent version of the "Industrial Wall Vent" drawing at over 4 CF/M for every 1mph of external air movement. The R&D remaining is the sizing, installation and construction material . The concept is two fold, primarily for the warmer climates: 1) to vent without the use of fans or A/C to both cool and reduce moisture in a house. Using the natural external air movement around a home to keep temperature down even when the home is vacated. Ideal for a vacation home without the use of A/C to keep the home free of mold, mildew, etc.
2) with a couple windows on either end of a house fitted with the vent, the windiest end would provide the draw, the other the inlet. this could allow for a HEPA filter to screen the incoming air of pollen and other pollutants. A natural method of circulating air and keeping out pollen and pollutants.
