    Default Inline Fans In A Line

    Hi Community,

    Has anyone tried running multiple RVK fans inline on one exhaust duct to increase air flow? I'm thinking of trying this so I don't have to buy a new fan.

    Anyone know if this works?

    Thanks in advance,
    D

    That seems like the least efficient way to increase your air flow, if you have long ducts and you want to boost your air out at the end of your ducts then people put in extra duct fans. A lot of people will put in powered intake to work with their powered to exhaust during hot times. For instance, in my grow room I have a 10in exhaust fan that I used by itself most of the year. When the weather gets hot I have my old 6 in extraction fan that I use to power my intake.

    Here's an example of a fan that can increase your air flow if you have ducts that are too long.

    It won't work in the way you wish mate... just buy the correct equipment... or be prepared to buy twice

    Thanks both, I had a feeling it would be a bodge, looks like I need to invest in a bigger / more powerful fan.
