App Concept
StormGuard Turbine Vent
A turbine vent that automatically closes and seals when wind speeds exceed a threshold or when the vent stops spinning, preventing rainwater entry. Combines passive ventilation with active weather protection.
Key Features
- Self-sealing damper that closes when vent is stationary or during high wind/rain
- Rugged bearing system ensuring free spin in low wind
- Easy retrofit installation on existing roof openings
- Corrosion-resistant materials for long life
Target Users: Homeowners in storm-prone regions experiencing ceiling leaks from turbine vents
Revenue Model: $40-60 per unit direct-to-consumer or via home improvement retailers
