Squirrel-Cage Fan and Dust Filter
I
WAS CONCERNED ABOUT DUSTin my shop and had this filter setup
made at a sheet-metal shop. For about $140, I got the four-speed
squirrel-cage blower in a custom box with a furnace filter on each
side. It hangs on the ceiling where it filters the air by removing air-
borne dust before it settles. It then recirculates the filtered air with a
whirlpool effect.
