Will burn up your miners.



hence the duct fan. no worries.

i was thinking the same but seems that you have been thinking on all btw i never imagine that someone would use it to heat up his house, well, i had some ideas about a greenhouse, but never to use it to heat up the house, you bring me some ideas



I wish that you can continue posting new images, i really want to see it 100% finished.

what images would you like to see? i will take some photos of the fan connected so you can see how big the fan is pushing the air into the hvac system.

I used the 6" hvac ducting. I cut a 6" hole into my hvac system using some hvac cutting tools. I got the 3 pack from home depot that has the straight cut, and left/right cuts. The location wasn't ideal because I couldn't get an angle with my large hands/arms so my wife did the majority of the cutting. I fed the ducting into the my hvac duct system about 1-2 ft without the foam lining and connected to the duct fan utilizing an hvac metal band. The 1-2 ft inside was pointed down along the normal path of air flow (without lining) but the hvac duct tubing from the entrance of my existing hvac system to the duct fan had the insulation attached. set the fan on the cut hole in the wood next to furnace, attached the elbow and ran 2 pieces of the insulated 6" tubing from the elbow to the exhaust fans of the miners. the 6" hvac flexible duct fits perfectly over the fans. I used an extra metal band for one to keep attached and used a plastic tie for the other as an insurance holder.



Tomorrow I am going to attach the hvac tubing from the miners to elbow better, the tape doesnt hold as well as I thought. I used the 6" hvac ducting.
