Over three decades ago Tempest found it’s start in producing quality American made hot-air balloon inflators. Shortly after inception, we helped pioneer a new firefighting technique called positive pressure ventilation/attack or PPV/PPA. Our high performance inflators were just what the fire industry was looking for to deployment this ground breaking tactic. PPV became well known for its success along with Tempest’s reputation for being the first and only manufacturer with the perfect tool for the job at hand. Since then, Tempest has grown substantially to become the world’s leading producer of tools used in a wide array of ventilation applications. All products manufactured by Tempest Technology have one goal in mind, making hazardous environments safer.
While Tempest owes much of its success to the fire industry and the adoption of positive pressure ventilation and attack, two specific areas of focus for the company have helped us maintain our leadership in the development and manufacturing of premium ventilators: an obsession for producing only the finest quality tools and equipment and an unwavering commitment to our customers.
WHY TEMPEST IS DIFFERENT
Quality & Reliability
Tempest has always been at the forefront of product innovation and evolution. However, a few things haven’t changed, and in our minds, shouldn’t. Quality, reliable tools and equipment made here, in the United States of America is a defining characteristic of the Tempest name. Every ventilator we build only uses materials provided by trusted local suppliers. We’ve spent decades perfecting the design and manufacturing of our products. It’s not uncommon to find Tempest brand ventilators built over 20 years ago still being used to this day. You’re not just buying a Tempest, you’re investing in a tool that is built to last.
Service & Support
When you buy a product you also purchase the service and support provided by the company that manufactured it. This philosophy is the cornerstone in Tempest’s business. Every Tempest employee is committed to providing our customers with the absolute best in care and support – before, during and after the sale. We only distribute through dealers chosen for their shared commitment in this unending pursuit, further ensuring our customers are always taken care of.
