The Positive Airblast creates a forward pressure to blow away smoke to create visibility and lower temperatures.
The Airblast ventilators have been designed and engineered to assist firefighters, USAR-teams and other rescue workers with the various rescue applications they encounter. We are confident that the design of this product will enable those working in these environments to not only negotiate the obstacles they encounter, but to perform their work more safely.
Postitive Airblast is strong enough to withstand the high radiant heat from structural fires. The precision blades ensure maximum and long-lasting quality airflow. Its 7-position tilt includes negative tilting without any add-ons. The 7-point aluminum airfoil blade and Stream Shaper Guard together form the impressive impact airblade design for unmatched performance.
