I used a bathroom exhaust fan for years and recently upgraded to an inline fan.

Those prices make me cringe! Might have to do a little homework but try Grainger or:

Looking at this as the OEM ones online are pricey..

Ya got a ton of coal on that floor. And that screw needs screwing.

And I'm buying more stock with duct tape manufactures.

😂 😂 😂
That screw would be a good holder for more duct tape.

That floor gets vacuumed once a year and doesn't fill a 10 gallon shop vac.

It functions and keeps me warm. Foil tape is in the important areas.

The big blower heats 1,000 sqf and is controlled by a temp sensor in the main trunk.

The upgraded combustion blower is way easier to clean, gives a much better burn (after dialing in rheostat) and is way cheaper to replace if it fails. It also uses 1/3 the electricity of the factory that failed...

Ps everything is powered by the sun / batteries... :yes: :mrgreen:
