looking at this flowhood - no knowledge of flow hoods
    #23562409 - 08/21/16 09:00 AM (7 years, 5 months ago)

has anyone tried a flow hoood like this? it appears that the filter is at the top and the air would blow down. would this work for mycology?

Hey anth, that's more or less the same style we used in the lab. I'd check reviews on the model but would say it's legit.  Just curious, why not build one to your own specs?

well i've been checking out the micron filters, i feel that where I am in Canada all the shipping charges and what not the price would end up around the same place....plus i'm crazy busy with a full time job and part time mushroom production...

I hear that!  Man, no filter manufacturers in Canada?  Shipping costs suck...

Agreed...there is a lot of stuff out there and it's hard to know what's a solid product/investment, especially considering the cost. I'm thinking of biting the bullet and ordering one from FP. Let us know what you decide on.

Way better deal than the Series 1...You're looking at the larger filter, correct?  Should be able to build it out way cheaper and get more filter area.  I'm looking at either the 24"x24" or the 24"x36".  I've a fan already so that helps a lot.  Interested to hear what you settle on.  I just think FP is gonna have a legit hepa so for me I'm paying for piece of mind.

If you haven't seen this, here's a link to fungi fun: http://www.fungifun.org/English/Flowhood
I'm gonna follow their design. They have the chart to match the blower as well. Looks pretty good.

Ant, I didn't see any specs for static pressure on that particular filter. You have to have pressure to calculate blower size.

Hey Quadman, what size is your filter and fan?  The FP filters are all 1"SP.  I'm gonna have to get a better fan. After looking at its specs it only pushes around 480 cfm free...bummer.
