The Rotorvent Ultralite 2 is a revolving chimney cowl designed to eradicate downdraught in chimney flues and ducts, whilst the rotating action assists ventilation. The Ultralite 2 has an aluminium globe construction, which is painted black to prevent reflections from sunlight whilst rotating. The Rotorvent Ultralite 2 is lighter, thanks to an aluminium globe, which enables it to operate at wind speeds up to 100mph.

Customer Reviews
Very good I am really pleased with the quality of this cowl, excellent value for money and has solved the back draught problem I had. I would certainly reccommend for purchase.

Recommend My builder fitted this very easily and quickly today. He was impressed at the fact it was so silent, yet was whizzing around as if on ballbearings. He felt sure it would greatly help, if not alleviate, the down-draught problem I have with my chimney. The cowl is a lovely design and very well made.

Spinning like a good thing! Put this up on the chimney last week, was simple and straightforward to fit. Given that its May the fire has not been lit yet but I would be very surprised if it didn't do the job.

Brilliant Vent This vent is really sturdy and really well made. Delivery was fast and fitting was a doddle. It's now working perfectly and looks so much better than the ugly square vent it replaced. I'm delighted.
