About this asset

This Revit family provides a roof-mounted turbine ventilator designed for efficient passive exhaust ventilation on sloped roof surfaces. Engineered for passive air extraction, this roof-mounted turbine ventilator features a classic spherical rotating head with curved vanes mounted on a cylindrical base. The geometry is designed to sit flush against a sloped roof plane, providing a realistic representation of mechanical ventilation systems. The simple, robust form is constructed from sheet metal, typical for industrial and commercial roof applications. It is provided as a single unit, suitable for massing or detailed mechanical layouts where natural air circulation is required for large internal volumes such as workshops or warehouses.

The download is a 788 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.

As a face-based Revit family, this component is designed to be hosted directly onto roof surfaces within your model. Users can easily place the unit onto any sloped roof element, where it will automatically align with the host plane. The family is lightweight, ensuring minimal impact on project file size while maintaining clear graphical representation in both 3D views and 2D plans, making it ideal for MEP coordination and building services documentation.

This ventilator is essential for industrial, agricultural, and large-scale residential projects requiring effective roof-level extraction of hot or stagnant air. It is frequently employed in warehouses, factories, sheds, and garages where passive ventilation is preferred over mechanical fan systems. Professionals should use this component during the schematic and detailed design stages of building services coordination. It pairs well with other roof-mounted mechanical equipment, providing a standard solution for ventilation schedules and roof plan layouts in architectural and MEP documentation.
