Mornin Sweetsue and gang....About fans....my thoughts and what i use. First off oversize your fan , i use a 6" Ostberg(main filtered exhaust) this is the one w/your carbon filter. Buy a speed controller for it and only run it at 70-75 %.It runs quiet and cut back a bit like this it helps the fan and carbon filter last alot longer than manufacturer states.Keep an eye on your pre-filter ,and change it as soon as you can see it getting dark or a little dirty,this also helps your filter last way longer.I'm using a Can Filter #33 in line with my 6"Ostberg fan and the filter was supposed to last up to 18 months.....i'm going on three yrs now with that combination.Don't run your fans at 100% if you can help it,but remember you have to have the right combination to do it like this. It works awesome ,trust me! Have a great day and a nice Easter everyone. Cheers eh.....Duggs.
