Do Wind Turbines require maintenance?
Of course! Small and medium sized wind turbines are designed for a long life (over 20 years) in almost any climate that we experience on Earth. As with any other hard-working machine, parts must be maintained and occasionally repaired. The average wind turbine could put on as many “miles” in a year as the average car does in its lifetime. No car owner would expect their car to perform for such an extended period of time without tune-ups or oil changes, let alone without maintenance. Greenthinking can service your wind turbine and it is essential that use an approved company during the warranty period. Return to Frequently Asked Questions.
