FAQs
How do I know what size windmill to buy?
Generally speaking, the taller the windmill is, the more wind it will catch, allowing it to aerate more effectively. We recommend a windmill with more height in areas where trees, buildings or other factors limiting the amount of wind.
If you have an open area where the windmill is 200 feet or more from any obstructions, the difference in the wind between a 12' and 20' windmill will usually be minimal and the decision on height is determined more by aesthetics and budget in those situations.
