Flettner Ventilator

-

The idea: Reduce hauling stress from overheatin­g with a vent that can be installed on any trailer model. How it works: The Flettner Ventilator is a European product that mounts on top of the trailer to vent air out. “We tested it on our trailer during a hot highway trip in Tennessee when the external temperatur­e was near 100 degrees,” says Debbie Stice of Horse Trailer Accessory Store. “The Flettner Ventilator lowered the temperatur­e in the box by 13 degrees.” The quiet, wind-powered vent extracts heat, odors, and moisture, which helps minimize respirator­y problems in addition to cooling the trailer. Once installed, park the trailer in an area where it can catch a breeze, and the ventilator turns nonstop. Learn more: Starting at $155; horsetrail­eraccessor­ystore.com.
