Wind deflectors are usually made in a square shape and are made of clay and wood to make the wind deflector. In some of these wind deflectors, there are plastering and partial beauty designs. Ventilators are mainly used for old houses that are located in warm areas such as Isfahan, Yazd, Kashan, etc. The working system of wind deflectors is in such a way that they draw in the current air outside the house and cool and light the air with the water pans that are installed inside them and direct it inside the house.

The shape of the windbreaks of traditional houses is usually rectangular, and they are placed in the direction of the wind through protruding metal arms to absorb the wind in the windy areas. The air absorbed through these arms enters the channel that reaches inside the house. In order to prevent unwanted creatures from entering the house, some windbreaks of traditional houses are covered with metal or wooden nets.
Inside the house, the air brought in by the ventilators of traditional houses is used as a ventilation system. Air is directed into the house through special pollinators and directed to the walls and ceiling through special grooves in the walls, reducing the temperature and maintaining the internal ventilation of the house.
