swedes67 Posted October 2, 2011 Report Share Posted October 2, 2011 Looking for some ideas for ventilation. I use part of my garage for making my baits. Looking at setting up a range hood over my bench and running it out side. Any thoughts or opinions. Thanks in advance!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smallie Posted October 3, 2011 Report Share Posted October 3, 2011 A range hood does not begin to flow enough air. Get at least 1000 FPM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaBehr Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 I built a plywood box...to put my 300cfm range hood on....it's just slightly taller and wider than my microwave....with a space to inject.So roughly 3'x3'x3' so....9 cubic feet of air. (I recently put a plexiglass front on it...about 1/2 way down the front ....That helped a TON! So if my range hood is sucking up 300 cfm...seems to me I'm exchanging the air at approx 30x/min.... Correct???? Or not???? I vent it out the back...out a tube and under the garage door. I do need to put some kind of baffle on the side of my microwave so that that discharge air goes straight up into the hood. Anyway.... no more headaches! Plus the bright lights from the hood really are helpful!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHK Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 when i talked to Kajan, he recommended 100CFM per cubic foot of hood. you would need 900CFM to be effective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
