Air Flow Direction
    #27285734 - 04/28/21 09:21 PM (3 years, 21 days ago)

The flow hood instructions I've been looking state that gasket should be facing out of the cabinet, but the sticker on my HEPA filter is showing the air flow direction going toward the side without a gasket. Am I missing something obvious here?

I guess it does say "gasket entry" right on the label. I just assumed the gasket would be facing out and against the furring.

If it says the airflow goes in that direction I'd go with that. I never heard anything about a gasket until I read your post. My flow hood works great

Finally getting this thing put together. Does anyone know for sure if air flow direction is absolutely necessary?

Not sure, but I'd go with the recommendation of the manufacturer to be safe. Sounds like your gasket is on the opposite side that you want it on...

To fix that you could go to the hardware store and get a roll of weather stripping foam (like for sealing around windows and doors) it has adhesive on one side, and is very soft so is easy to kinda mash into itself to make effectively seamless joints.

Good luck!
