HYBRID ROOFTOP VENTILATORS SLASH ENERGY 400%

Organization Overview

Kurt Shafer, Founder and CEO, is a serial inventor having created the first commercially available webcam software in 1995 that was used by the USPS for construction sites and by Surfline for the 1996 Huntington Beach Surf Classic. 

In 2016 Kurt invented the first hybrid rooftop ventilator ever made in America. The Tornado hybrid is designed into the new Los Angeles Studio City gymnasium out for bid now. He has signed a rep agreement with Triangle Sales in Missouri and has more coming. He made the first rooftop in 2016 and shipped it to the owners of a mid century modern home in Los Angeles. He recently completed a business investment plan showing a valuation of $1,030,000 in 3 years.

The term hybrid refers to the combination of free gravity airflow combined with powered flow in the same unit. No other company in America has this feature. 

An excellent example is this case study - https://inviscoindustrial.com/case-studies/underground-garage/

which shows a 10,000 watt Greenheck underground garage ventilator replaced by hybrids that reduce the energy to 2525 watts
