and far removed in proximity to trees and other adjacent buildings or structures.

There are several options for the installation of the

HONEYWELL™ Wind Turbine.

The turbine may be installed using a pole, a

QUADPOD™ Mount on a flat roof with a

ballast or a

QUADPOD™ Mount on a pitched roof with a ROOFBOX™ Mount. These

are described in the next section.

Building codes and installation requirements vary considerably between various

townships, cities, states and countries. Make sure that all required local permits are

obtained BEFORE beginning installation. In all cases installation must be conducted

by a licensed and trained professional contractor and electrician. In some locations the

local electric utility may have strict regulations about renewable energy technologies

such as this wind turbine and other interconnect agreements and therefore it is highly

recommended that they are also contacted BEFORE installation.
