Residential and turbines can be frustrating. Learning something new from scratch forces us to make a lot of decisions we don't really feel qualified to make. The good part is there's lots of information on the Internet about how to decide where to place wind turbines and what kind you need.
To do a project like this correctly you need to familiarize yourself with all of the aspects that come into play. This is not unlike any other home projects that you may do. You need to do some research on the Internet because there are not that many retail wind turbine stores in most American neighborhoods that you can go and hang out and learn about these devices before you make a decision.
As a matter of fact, these are the areas I suggest educating yourself about…
Wind patterns-we all assume we that because we've got wind blowing outside that it is sufficient to supply a residential wind turbine with enough flow to power a device or our entire house even. This is not always the case though and not nearly that simple. You'll find that when you study the concept of microclimates that each location around your house, on your roof, or 100 feet up in the air, has its own unique wind signature. That wind signature has 2 aspects-the average wind speed that will be experienced there and the profile of the wind or when the wind blows the strongest.
Types of residential wind turbines-the 2 most prevalent kinds of devices found in the market today are vertical axis wind turbines and horizontal axis wind turbines. This covers the majority of the market and most of applications that people will consider for their homes.
Local rules relating to permitting-this varies from community to community. While one city or town may be very favorable toward you putting a wind turbine up on your property, another may absolutely make it close to impossible for you to do so. Many of the rules limit the amount of power that you can extract from the air by telling you, you cannot install the wind turbine kits over a certain number of feet-usually 60 to 80 feet if there is going to rule like that.
Residential wind turbines can be a great way to cut costs at home and have some fun doing it but any good home project starts with education if you are intent on making the project a success.
