    • Standard units are made with high quality vinyl coated polyester windscreen fabric.
    • Standard colors are Dark Green and Black. Other colors available.
    • SIZE: 5’ Width x 6’ Height only.
    • Mix-in Units available in Widths: 10’, 15’, 20’, 25’ x 6’ Height.

Technically Speaking and How and Where to Use It

  • Individual 5 ft. wide Ballasted Windscreen units are attached to chain link fence only along their tops, and the units are installed alternately on both sides of the fence.
  • The bottom of each section has a sand-filled PVC pipe inserted thru its entire width in a triple-reinforced pocket.
  • Engineered to provide just the right amount of ballast to hold the weighted windscreen unit in a vertical position during lighter, tennis-playable winds, but it automatically opens up to let higher velocity winds flow thru, significantly reducing wind stress on the fence.
  • Each 5’ wide section exerts a minimum of 15 pounds of vertical vector force, providing the correctly engineered amount of ballast to offset excessive unit billowing in normal sports-playable winds.
  • When constant wind velocities exceed 25 mph, the Aer-Flo Ballasted Windscreen system provides a progressively increasing degree of wind force relief thru a series of opening “wind gates”, those units on the fence side in the wind direction.
  • Sections that suffer the greatest exposure to high winds, use 100% Ballasted Windscreen units.
  • Sections that have moderate exposure to high winds, mix in non-ballasted individual units of 10’ – 25’ so that 50-70% of section is covered by alternating Ballasted Windscreen.
  • For lower wind exposure sections, mix in non-ballasted units so that 20-40% of section is covered by Ballasted Windscreen.
  • For protected fence sections rarely exposed to high winds, use 100% Aer-Flo non-ballasted windscreen for a perfect match.

 

     
Normal position: In calm to low winds.  The subtle, two-tone color effect from alternate side installation of 5’ wide units is exaggerated here. Storm position: In higher, non-playable winds, BALLASTED units open to allow damaging winds thru, PROTECTING FENCE & WINDSCREEN. Self Tie-Up feature:  Built-in hook & loop strips at top allow one person to roll up and secure entire unit in less than 30 seconds.  SAVES COSTLY LABOR TIME.
