Prevailing wind
The most important factors in decid-
ing whether a Whisper wind system is 2
right for you are wind resources and

proper siting. Ask yourself the following 3
questions:
• Do I have enough wind – at least 9
mph (4 m/s) average?
• Do zoning laws allow the use of
towers? A properly sited Whisper wind generator must
• Do I have enough land – 1/2 acre

object within a 250 ft (76 m) radius. Harness the

Designed specifically for the Whisper
100 and 200, economical guyed tower Whisper 100/200
kits install in as little as four hours. All
hardware is included (pipe and anchors
