The up grade

Now that I've been using it for a few weeks, and have recieved several PM's and questions about the new system, I'll share what I've done...in pictures.

the new DC is a PSI 1500 cfm single stage powered by a 2 HP motor turning a 12" steel impeller.. the inlet is 6" and coinsides nicely with my 6" Main trunk duct work... I originaly wanted to install a cyclone, but I have height limitations and a cyclone with enough cfm simply wont fit... this one make it by 1/2"... I chose a 1 micron canister type that is 40" tall and gives superrior filteration to a bag type, a disposable bag catches the debis that is drawn in or shaken from the canister...I've included the fan curve with my first photo...

A good run is better than a bad stand!
