Room intake/exhaust system (MODULAR)

READ THE WHAT TO PRINT SECTION AT THE BOTTOM

READ ALL OF THIS SUMMARY

This machine is designed to rapidly intake or expel air from a room. It is designed for use with 150mm fans, particularly the SanyoDenki San Ace 150. The tube parts are designed to fit a 4-inch tube.

Use a combination of the parts provided. Intake / exhaust mode can be determined by the direction the fan is inserted. Drill a hole in one corner of the fan enclosure, to allow the fan wire to come out.

In addition to the main machine, it also has parts for using a tube and/or mounting it in a window.

Ideas

Some assembly and setup ideas...

Use multiple hoses together for a longer reach

Chain modules together for more power

Place it in a window

Use it to pull cold air from the basement

Use it as a soldering / painting / anything fume extractor

Use it as an air conditioner

Use branch pieces (coming soon) to branch out in multiple directions at once

Use tube ends to create a vent system

Build a crude vacuum

Use it as a leaf blower / sucker

And lots more
