Ripped back of HEPA filter... what do?
    #23809310 - 11/07/16 10:52 AM (7 years, 2 months ago)

Just bought a flow hood. When setting it up, the inline fan fell out of its support and ripped the back of the filter. My question is- am I screwed? Do I have to buy a new 24x36 HEPA? The filter is several inches thick, and I think only the outer layer is damaged.





Bonus question: this is a very large unit and does not fit through the doors into a smaller bedroom. Does anybody just run a hood in their basement? Cause that's where fits in my house lol.

You should consider putting a screen or something over the front of the filter, if you haven't. They are far too expensive to allow these things to happen. I understand it was the fan mount though, and I feel for ya. That sucks.
Now, I don't have a flowhood, so it's possible I may be wrong. But, I'd likely flip the filter upside-down. I'd then check to make sure I still had a good enough workable area by placing an open petri in front of it for a while.

Flipping upside down will work. Or put a shelf at base above tear

Flipping it is a decent plan, I didn't think of that. I'll give it a shot and see if it works. Thank you guys
