EcoTight Shutter
Don’t let your expensive positive pressure system be compromised by losing pressure in the room when a shutter blade gets flipped over or stuck in an open position. The EcoTight Shutter was designed so there will be NO blade flip over or blades stuck in an open position. Manufactured to your desired custom size, the patented EcoTight Shutter improves fan efficiency and reduces cold air leakage. Its heavy-duty, durable twin wall profile frame was designed for longer life and stability of shutter. Individual Eco Adapter clips allow for expansion and contraction while reducing air leakage and light. Excellent cleanability with durability to withstand pressure washing. Widely used today in the outlet dampers of positive pressure facilities.
Key Features:
- Aerodynamic design boosts CFM/W and reduces air leakage
- Continuous rod adds strength and rigidity
- Patented clip design prevents blade flip-over and jamming
- Made-to-order for any size or rough opening
- Corrosion-resistant plastic construction allows for expansion and contraction
- Proven retrofit solution to enhance house tightness and efficiency
Product Description
U. S. PATENT NO. 10,184,685
The patented EcoTight™ Shutter is designed to enhance fan efficiency and reduce cold air leakage. Custom-built to your specifications, it features a heavy-duty twin-wall profile frame for extended durability and stability.
Its aerodynamic design optimizes airflow while minimizing light penetration into animal rooms. In independent testing of a 30″ shutter (not mounted to a fan), the EcoTight™ outperformed Double L’s standard PVC shutter with 21.8% more airflow and 17.1% less air leakage.
A standout feature is the side profile with patented Eco Adapter Blade Clips, which allow for natural expansion and contraction—reducing both air leakage and light intrusion. The blades are designed to stay secure—no flipping over or getting stuck open.
Each blade includes a rubber seal for a tighter closure and pivots on a continuous fiber rod for added strength and longevity. The shutter is also easy to clean and built to withstand pressure washing, making it ideal for demanding ag environments.
BESS LAB TESTING:
Test #16376 & #16377
EcoTight Shutter generated 21.8% more airflow & 20.6% less leakage than standard PVC Shutter (Shutter Only – Not on Fan)
