Unique Construction Features
Fabra Hood Style
•Hinged Hood - All sizes feature a hood which may be hinged to provide quick access to the motor and drive assembly. Access may be gained by simply removing two of the four hood fasteners or all fasteners for complete removal.
•Large Interior Dimensions - All sizes allow complete accessibility. Interior dimensions offer clearance for inspection, cleaning, or maintenance of the motor, wheel, belt(s), and drives.
•Strength & Weather Resistance - The hood is designed with arched panels manufactured of heavy gauge, precision roll formed steel with interlocking edges. Each interlocking rib creates a tight, weather resistant seal. Heavy gauge steel support members provide structural strength. The first hood was put into service over 30 years ago.
Greenheck’s interlocking rib design combines four material thicknesses with
in strength to conventional designs (an important feature in high wind and snow load regions).
Formed channels
adjacent to the ribs provide water drainage to ensure weather tightness.
Hoods are available in galvanized steel, painted steel, or aluminum construction.
Louvered Penthouse Style
•Hinged Cover - All sizes feature an aluminum cover which may be hinged to provide quick access to the motor and drive assembly. Covers are fastened down with a quick release hood latch.
•Large Interior Dimensions - All sizes allow complete accessibility from above. Interior dimensions offer clearance for inspection, cleaning, or maintenance of the motor, wheel, belt(s), and drives.
•Strength & Weather Resistant - Each unit features storm resistant aluminum louver blades with mitered corners. For decades, our storm resistant blades have proven highly effective. Each sturdy extruded aluminum louver blade has a material thickness of 0.080 inches.
Greenheck’s louvered penthouse hoods feature heavy gauge extruded aluminum louvers
with mitered corners for a clean, finished appearance and weather resistant construction.
The interior vertical edge of the curb cap forms the throat and weathershield. Each corner is also shielded to prevent leakage.
Penthouses are available in aluminum for lasting durability and appearance.
