TV 29 and 8

Keep your eyes open the next few weeks we will be advertising on TV for the first time. I send a deal for 72 spots that will be featured on TV 29 and 8 starting in Mid- July running through Mid- August. I will try and post the ad on this blog once it has been released.

60' tower and turbine

We just finished the Couturier project today. After 12 weeks of waiting the pole showed up on time and we were able to finish today. The unit was spinning like crazy when we left today. The wind turbine was already putting back power back on the grid. A fantastic thing to see. Our next project will be back in the Caro and Frankenmuth area of Tuscola. We have one that we will be moving from one property to another and one that we have not started yet.

Lake Leelanau tomorrow

Stop by tomorrow between 1 and 2pm in Lake Leelanau on E. Lingaur Rd. to watch us install a 60' tower with a wind turbine on top. As far as I know this will be the tallest Skystream wind turbine in Leelanau County. I will post pictures after the project is completed tomorrow.

$1000 off

If anyone buys a wind turbine between now and July 31, 2009, I will give you $1000 off the complete installation of that wind turbine. We have four turbine companies to choose from to help you get the right turbine that will meet your needs. Call today for your free site assessment today, (231) 668-4626

Residential Rooftop Wind Turbines

I keep seeing that people are searching for rooftop wind turbines in my web site. I am going to tell you right now that roof mounted turbines do not work well at all. The reason is there is to much turbulence in the wind from hitting the roof an going up over the top of the roof. I was in Ludington a month ago and there is a house on Business 131 across from the Pere Marquette Township hall. The flag at the township hall was flying straight into the wind and the roof mounted turbines were spinning in circles and mean the whole turbine not the blades. I will down there later this week and I will try and get video of these roof mounted wind turbines in action. Stop back next week and see the video.

New dealership

I found out today that I am now dealership for the Bergey Wind Turbine. This adds a third brand and size of turbines that I now can offer to customers. Also later this year they will be releasing a new 50kw turbine.

Currently I have the Skystream, Proven and the Bergey wind turbines.

The turbines sizes are:
Skystream 2.4 kw
Proven 6kw and 15kw
Bergey 10kw

Also I have been in talks with Northern Power Systems, they make 100kw unit.

I will be leaving for Canada next week to go look at another company that I am very interested in using their turbine for a project in the thumb.

New wind Turbine

 I am always asked if I have a wind turbine of my own and now I can say yes I do. This unit will be powering my display tent when I am at a festival or fair. Currently I will be using it to power up the lights in my job trailer. I have a 12 volt battery and inverter all connected to the wind turbine, which keeps the battery charged. I will be adding a solar panel the I have in the next few weeks.
