ABOUT TEMPEST

Tempest Technology Corporation is the leading manufacturer 

of products and accessories for environmental management in 

firefighting and industrial applications.

Tempest began as a manufacturer of gasoline and electric powered 

blowers for the fire service. Fire departments use the 

Tempest 

Power Blower

TM

 to provide “Positive Pressure Ventilation / Attack” 

(PPV/PPA) to remove heat, gases and smoke from the interior of 

a burning structure. 

Tempest has expanded into other industries and found new 

applications for its products. The 

Tempest Power Blower

TM

 and 

PPV/PPA are used by industrial applications to control dust, fumes 

and unhealthy gases like carbon monoxide, greatly improving 

safety in confined spaces. 

Tempest Technology Corporation has earned a reputation as a 

leader and innovator in the air movement industry and continues 

in that role today.
