blowing just clogges it up faster. You can use it like that it just wont last as long.
why wont it last as long? if you put the pre filter over the hole where the ducting connects to the filter to stop dust then it makes no differance what way the air flows through the carbon. Although its better to pull through the filter in general its not always the best.blowing just clogges it up faster. You can use it like that it just wont last as long.
If you can get that pre filter in there a work properly then sure but I doubt very seriously you can. You will also blow carbon dust into your flower room. Wont hurt anything just makes a mess.
Hiya. Are we talking 4 times more efficient in terms of the fan, not the filter? I hope so.
Edit: what I meat to say was, are we saying that the fan functions 4 times more efficiently if we pull through the filter? Not that the filter fiters better, right?
power is power. It takes the same power to push or pull and the fan impellers and motor will not see any difference. But when you pull you bring everything in, leaks and all. When you pull you will pull around via leaks any resistance down stream (i.e. filter). You will have a better outcome pulling.
The motor will definitely see a difference, it isn't near as efficient by a long shot to push, so the motor will be have a lot of extra resistance to spin at the rpm's it was designed for. Its a good bet that you fan will flow considerably less, and burn out faster, also it can be argued that the filter will perform slightly worse since you are blowing from the smaller circumference to the larger circumference.
To every action there is always an equal and opposite reaction: or the forces of two bodies on each other are always equal and are directed in opposite directions.
this should make it clear if Newtons Law is correct.
and does newtons law explain cfm loss in an elbow. not saying newtons law does not apply at all but the apple falling on your head and air movement is apples and oranges.
if you have the same elbow and ducting or what ever in the way it will be the same if you switch the fan around be it sucking or blowing.
It depends on the filter(brand), these days you can get some that are designed to do either, be it pulled or pushed through! Look into it bro! This can be handy to know if you wanted to push through, just find the compatible filter.
not really pushing and pulling air is two different things. which end of the ducting the fan is on DOES make a difference. google it
