16" Direct Drive Positive Pressure Blower, Honda 5.5hp

Tempest Direct-Drive blowers evolved from the Controlled Airstreams line of durable PPV blowers; the first direct-drive PPVs and still the best. Available in 16 to 24 diameter sizes, there is a Tempest Direct-Drive to match your budget and compartment space. For the best combination of performance, compact size and light weight, choose a Tempest Direct-Drive. The impeller is mounted directly to the engine shaft, reducing the blowers overall weight. Vibration problems that are common to most direct-drive blowers have been minimize with the use of overhead valve engines, precisely balanced impellers, and vibration-absorbing feet. The direct-drive design is more compact to provide a smaller profile for storage in most apparatus compartments.
