    Default Air out question

    Hello all, just a quick question or two. Would be grateful if anyone could help.

    1. Can air be vented out of my grow room in a downwards direction through the floor (6ft) and will this reduce fan efficiency?

    2. Anyone used a Y or T connector to join 2 air duct outlets (10") into 1 before air exits from 2 adjoining rooms, will this reduce fan efficiency?

    Thanks

    Yes & yes....

    Everything reduces fan efficiency to some extent or another

    Thanks MC, so I can vent downwards but it will reduce fan efficiency?

    Venting downwards is possibly more efficent than venting upwards over the same distance... but every meter of ducting reduces the fans efficency
