Troy-Bilt® Introduces New Leaf Blower To Take Control Of The Air
CLEVELAND, Aug. 14, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Troy-Bilt® today introduced Jet™, a powerful new leaf blower with a sleek design and an engineered airflow that moves leaves and debris in a controlled and effective way.
The leaf blower's innovative mixed-flow fan design simultaneously maximizes air volume (measured in cubic feet per minute or cfm) and harnesses speed (measured in miles per hour or mph). As the fan rotates, it pulls in and pressurizes an industry-leading 650 cfm* of air, which is pushed out of the nozzle at 130 mph. The result is a perfect balance of speed and volume that allows users to achieve the outcomes they desire.
"It's commonly thought the key measurement of a leaf blower's power and performance is miles per hour, but in actuality, it's a combination of speed and air volume," said Aaron Hanlon, director of marketing and product management for Troy-Bilt, a leading manufacturer of outdoor power equipment. "A leaf blower with high speed and low volume is powerful, but only moves a small amount of debris. A product with low speed and high volume moves more debris, but without much force."
Jet also has optimal weight balance, so the blower is stable and easy to control. Its user-focused design aligns the air intake, fan and air output so engine heat, sound and vibration are funneled out through the blower – keeping the engine cooler, quieter and more comfortable. Unlike many other leaf blowers, starting the unit is easy with a Prime, Flip & Go starting system – instead of a multi-step process, users only need to prime it, flip the choke lever and pull start.
The Troy-Bilt Jet is available at Lowe's® stores, lowes.com and troybilt.com for $149.99.
*CFM industry leader in handheld blowers; cfm measured with nozzles removed.
