what's the best CFM's needed in my 1500 cubic foot room to clean the air? should it be cleaned every 3,5,or 10 minutes? please help thanks.
I need to purchase a new carbon filter for my blower to scrub the room. i have two options. a 6inch and an 8 inch. i havent looked at the CFM's on either vortex blower but im curious to know if my calculation is correct and if you can let me know what to use to get the best filtration. my goals are to filter the smell as well as anything else and im guess with one you get the other?
to know the cfm's needed:
my room volume is 1500 cubic feet. if i wanted to clean the air in 5 minutes. thats 1500/min's.= cfm. or volume / mins. =cfm.
this correct?? so
1500ft cubed/5mins =300 cfms.
again, lets say i use a bigger filter and blower with higher cfms. id get
1500/3 mins= 500 cfm. so 500 cfm's to clean the entire room in 3 mins.
also, does the white fiberous scrubber that surrounds the carbon filter restrict the fan? if so, how do i calculate that in the mix. thanks.
