Impeller speed.... Original Message Feb 25, 2008 6:08 pm
I was told by an Ariens dealer that the 7hp model will throw the snow as far as the 11hp model.He said the reason is that the impeller rpm's is the same on both.But in the Ariens brochure it shows that the smaller snowblowers throw snow 0 to 35 ft and the deluxe and pro models will throw snow 0 to 50 ft.So who is right?Also all of the toro snow blowers regardless of hp all throw snow up to 45ft conditions permitting.How can you find out the impeller rpms of a snowblower and if it has a high speed impeller??Someone in this forum also said dont buy into the hype of the hp because all impellers rotate at the same rpms unless its a high end snow blower like a Honda...
