hey all, I picked up a furnace blower which I'm 75% sure will work for a build, cheap locally. I also found someone selling a HEPA filter locally but im not sure if it would work.
Its a Astrocel I 14A73J1T2A0 99.985% Resistance is only .7" at 500 cfm test rate.
Would this work?

Yeah I think that would be ok but in my experience paying a little more for things that will either last 3 years or 10 years is a no brainer. For example, you pay $100 or $200 OVER ITS LIFE SPAN THE $200 IS $20 A YEAR. Getting better deal on the higher end stuff is possible.
Is it for commercial(i dont need to know ins and outs lol) use or just a hobby?

Ya i don't think this .7" is going to work . I am in contact with a couple filter producers but getting them to give me a quote is like pulling teeth.

look on ebay!! I got a 13x13 for a 100. Great size for me and I can still b2b xfer bc only the opening of the bag needs to be in the stream of air.

Hrmm maybe I'll get a quote on that as well if I get an answer from the sales person lol.
E bay has been a pretty dead end, prices seem to be to high or filter isn't what I need.
