Masts and Accessories for Wind Turbines
To be effective, a personal wind turbine must capture relatively strong winds. To do this, it must be placed quite high. Thus, the blades, and sometimes the generator, are located at height, at the top of a mast or pylon: the height can vary from 4 to 12 m for a domestic wind turbine.
Installation of blades at height: mast or pylon?
There are therefore two types of elements allowing the installation of blades at height:
- the mast,
- the tower.
The wind turbine mast: mainly for horizontal wind turbines
The mast, a rigid vertical element, is generally reserved for horizontal wind turbines.
Resistant, the wind turbine mast must not bend under the wind, and its structure must not be susceptible to rust, fungi, mold... There are 2 types of materials for a wind turbine mast: aluminum or rust-resistant metal.
During design, one starts by deciding whether the mast is mounted on foundations or not:
If the generator is located at the top of the mast, foundations are essential. In other cases, they remain strongly recommended.
Indeed, the foundations ensure the proper anchoring of the mast and therefore of the wind turbine in the ground. Thus, your residential wind turbine is not at risk of being uprooted by the wind.
Good to know: for even more safety, the mast can be secured with stays. This term refers to metal cables that run from the mast to the ground. The strength of the mast is thus reinforced.
The pylon: for both types of wind turbines
Several vertical elements, somewhat like an electric pylon, support the wind turbine. This technique is used for both vertical-axis and horizontal-axis domestic wind turbines.
Like the mast, the pylon must be well anchored in the ground to withstand the winds.
Moreover, aluminum proves to be an ideal material for construction, as it is resistant and does not fear rust.
The downside of this technique concerns tall domestic wind turbines, as the pylon is not aesthetic, especially when it is tall.
Your successes are what motivate us

Marc Delattre
The equipment received perfectly matched what I was looking for. The price was very reasonable, and the order was delivered quickly. No complaints, everything went smoothly.
Orlando Silva
I installed the wind turbine and everything went perfectly. The product is of very good quality, the delivery via Chronopost was impeccable, with well-protected packages. Their advice and documents were a great help for the installation. Since then, my electricity consumption has significantly decreased. Customer service is also very responsive in case of questions. I highly recommend!

Jean-Marie Berger
Team very attentive, even if the equipment came from elsewhere. Fast delivery and easy commissioning thanks to their explanations.
Bruno Darbo
Good technical information, clear and useful.
Pierre Trouillet
The wind turbine arrived quickly. I assembled it without difficulty. It is not too noisy despite its 3 blades. For now, it seems very good, it just has a slight misalignment of the hub when it turns, which causes a small vibration. I hope that in the long run it won't damage the bearings.
Messiant Marc
Quality equipment. The assembly instructions and advice could be improved, but despite some mishaps during installation, Le Comptoir Éolien showed great responsiveness. We'll have to see over time to judge profitability: it already takes a good gust of wind to reach the announced 2000 W.
Serge Lambert
Serious phone contact, clear advice. Products received as expected and no unpleasant surprises. I recommend.
Client
Deadlines met and equipment in accordance with the order.

Pascal Filipek
After choosing the suitable wind system, I placed an order. Serious tracking and very good quality of the received equipment (packaging, number of packages, mechanical and electrical components). Upon receipt, I installed the wind turbine and the electrical cabinet. I am currently in the observation phase of the performances. The wind turbine is silent and, installed on a well-exposed terrace, captures the wind well.
