Modular Laminar Flow Hood - Separate blower with hose to filter?
    #26346299 - 11/26/19 08:48 AM (4 years, 2 months ago)

Long time lurker, finally created an account.

I'm about to start growing various gourmet mushrooms again and this time want to build a laminar flow hood. The typical design has the blower motor on top blowing down behind the HEPA filter. The blower can also be boxed in with a pre-filter which I definitely need with 3 cats in the house.

This setup tends to be heavy and needs a sturdy table and can be 3'/1 meter or more in height.

Can the blower unit be built into it's own box, with a pre-filter, but then have the air blown through a hose to the HEPA filter box allowing only the HEPA box to sit on a table, with the blower box on the floor, greatly reducing the weight on the table?

Look up fan filter unit or FFU on eBay.  Or you could build your hood with the blower inside the plenum, but honestly a flow hood reality isn’t that big?

Your table can't handle an extra 30lb? I'd find a better table over making the FH build more complicated
