Ducted window exhaust fans

[virginiadiver69]

I've been looking for some sort of DUCTED window exhaust fan.
What I have in mind is an in line duct fan connected to a window grill. That way I can vent hot air from my hood/stand to the window that sits directly behind my tank. I've some searching online but haven't seen anything...any ideas?

You could try contacting a local HVAC shop. I'm sure they could get a hold of one for you. You probably want an inline 110vac fan. I'd suggest something around 500-700 cfm and about 7-8" round. Good luck.

Try a ducted bathroom fan from Lowe's, the kind normally mounted in the ceiling. They're built to handle the high humidity, and they even carry ones whisper quiet so the noise doesn't drive you nuts.

I have this on my tanks. What I have are powerful fans outside the house that suck warm air from the canopy via ducts I had built into the ceiling. Works terrific and really drops the temperature in the canopy. I had my home theater people do all the work since I am not handy at all.

What kind of fans did you use?
