SKYX Platforms Corp., a smart home technology company trading on NASDAQ under the symbol SKYX, announced the launch of its newly patented all-in-one ceiling plug & play SKYFAN & TURBO HEATER at Walmart, a leading U.S. retailer. Company management anticipates significant growth through this Walmart channel during 2026. The product launch represents a strategic entry into a major retail distribution network, which is expected to enhance consumer accessibility and support scalable revenue growth.
The innovative product combines a ceiling fan with a built-in turbo heater, offering what the company describes as a safer and more efficient alternative to traditional portable space heaters. This design addresses both summer cooling and winter heating needs, creating a year-round market opportunity. The combined ceiling fan and portable heater category is a multi-billion-dollar annual market, with tens of millions of units sold each year in North America alone.
In response to strong demand, SKYX intends to offer the product in six colors to serve both residential and commercial markets. Production is currently underway with the company's manufacturing partners, with a broad retail rollout expected in the first quarter of 2026 to align with the winter season. Driven by this demand, SKYX expects additional winter launches in other leading U.S. retailers and big-box chains beyond Walmart.
The company anticipates that the Turbo Heater launch will generate significant revenue in 2026 and advance its path to becoming cash-flow positive. SKYX's platform technology, which includes over 100 pending and issued patents globally, is designed to modernize traditional electrical infrastructure with a focus on safety, functionality, and ease of use. The company estimates its total U.S. addressable market at approximately $500 billion, with more than 4.2 billion ceiling applications in the United States.
Lenny Sokolow, CEO of SKYX Platforms Corp., stated that the launch exemplifies the company's commitment to innovation, safety, and scalable global solutions. He expressed belief that the all-in-one offering will drive meaningful value for customers, partners, and shareholders. The company's business model includes recurring revenue opportunities through product interchangeability, upgrades, AI-enabled services, monitoring, and subscriptions, following a "razor-and-blades" strategy anchored by its advanced ceiling electrical outlet platform.
For consumers, the product's implication is a potential shift in home climate control, consolidating two appliances into one ceiling-mounted unit that claims improved safety over traditional space heaters. For the industry, SKYX's entry into major retail channels like Walmart could disrupt the traditional fan and heater markets, applying smart home and plug & play technology to categories that have seen incremental innovation. The broader impact involves SKYX's mission to make homes and buildings "safe and smart as the new standard," with technologies intended for residential, commercial, hospitality, and institutional buildings worldwide.
