Bigmikez Posted February 23, 2015 Report Posted February 23, 2015 Pretty cool find MM has anyone used these?
madman_us Posted February 23, 2015 Author Report Posted February 23, 2015 i dont know who exactly was talking about it but there was a post for hanging air filter
madman_us Posted February 23, 2015 Author Report Posted February 23, 2015 then he should better check this one out, good price and quality 1
pmiller383 Posted February 23, 2015 Report Posted February 23, 2015 I was looking at this exact one a few weeks ago too, definitely going to have to snag it while its at this price.
madman_us Posted February 23, 2015 Author Report Posted February 23, 2015 in the grizzly catalog its for $159
ChrisK Posted February 23, 2015 Report Posted February 23, 2015 Thanks Madman....ORDERED!!! Your the best, man this is going to be a big deal for me. Thanks for posting and thanks for remembering Chad! $151.84 with two filters. 2
madman_us Posted February 23, 2015 Author Report Posted February 23, 2015 your welcome man - glad i could help....we wanna see another unboxing vid bro 1
ChrisK Posted February 23, 2015 Report Posted February 23, 2015 You got it Madman. That is one heck of a deal and I really am thankful you posted it. Dust scares me pretty bad especially in my woodshop.
MikeyB Posted February 24, 2015 Report Posted February 24, 2015 Chris post a pic/video after you set it up
Samuel L. Posted February 24, 2015 Report Posted February 24, 2015 1 micron isn't enough to take care of all the stuff that damages your lungs you need something that is good down to 0.1 microns and those things are not that great because they just pull air in and dump it out only 2 feet away from the intake just get a really good dust collector.
ChrisK Posted February 24, 2015 Report Posted February 24, 2015 Coupled with a Hepa Midi this is a perfect fit. Plus high density filters will help even more. I will be looking into a direct vent to the outside through my dryer vent that I left in place just for this task when I moved the dryer over to the other side of my basement. This is actually a great fit for my shop.
MikeyB Posted February 24, 2015 Report Posted February 24, 2015 Chris if you can vent it to the outside that's your best bet, instead of recirc. Keep us updated with the install of this bad boy...
ChrisK Posted February 24, 2015 Report Posted February 24, 2015 Yeah will do Mike, obviously I don't own one yet so seeing how to attach a vent tube will probably be the hardest part but I've got the dryer vent already set up so...should be.....SHOULD be pretty straightforward
overanalyze Posted February 24, 2015 Report Posted February 24, 2015 I don't have the Grizzly but have an identical re-branded unit. They sell this unit under the ShopFox brand on Amazon and the Performax brand @ Menards. We take it on site during remodels and run it all day to help reduce the dust in clients homes. It does very well. At that price its almost worth getting a second one. I found a place online that makes custom filters. I can get a re-usable, washable filter made for about 20 bucks. If I do that I will report how it does. 1
ChrisK Posted February 24, 2015 Report Posted February 24, 2015 Thanks sir! I'd really love to hear how those filters do. I wasn't sure if the one I bought came with the filters so I bought the two just to be sure.
Bigmikez Posted February 24, 2015 Report Posted February 24, 2015 Pure quality for the shop Chris good job bro I'm glad to hear MM found U a great price. 1
madman_us Posted February 24, 2015 Author Report Posted February 24, 2015 if i would have a basement shop - i would go for that system too.but right now, i just hit one switch; the one my garage door and the air gets cleaned 1
comp56 Posted February 24, 2015 Report Posted February 24, 2015 ya we have almost the identical unit here local for about $30 more and wondered about getting one too, seeings I have a basement shop now too.....I would run it direct out side as I have done that with my dust deputy/ shop vac and it seems to make a difference.......might be placebo but still
regopit Posted February 24, 2015 Report Posted February 24, 2015 Coupled with a Hepa Midi this is a perfect fit. Plus high density filters will help even more. I will be looking into a direct vent to the outside through my dryer vent that I left in place just for this task when I moved the dryer over to the other side of my basement. This is actually a great fit for my shop.You should be able to take some sheet metal and make something up or just take your measurements to a sheet metal shop and have one made for under 40 bucks. 1
ChrisK Posted February 24, 2015 Report Posted February 24, 2015 Thanks Carroll! I hadn't thought of that, what about dryer coil or is that too small a diameter?
regopit Posted February 24, 2015 Report Posted February 24, 2015 It should work. You might have to extend the plenum out some befor you start to reduce it down to fit the dryer vent.
ChrisK Posted February 24, 2015 Report Posted February 24, 2015 I think I could probably do that I'll post it when it comes in and do the research. Thanks Regopit I really appreciate it!
overanalyze Posted February 25, 2015 Report Posted February 25, 2015 Hey Chris, A 4" round sheet metal pipe is a bit undersized for what the filter can output on high. 6" would be better if you have that option. Here is a quick reference for different duct sizing and cfm ratings. http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/equivalent-diameter-d_443.html 1
