Idea to exhaust below closet door... What do you think?

**Zafa** · 01-02-2011, 04:33 PM

You inspired me... I am going to cut a hole in my wall and exhaust into the garage. I have everything I will need to do what you show in your design. I will leave the space under my door for passive air intake. Where I live it does not get above 90 in the summers so I don't think I will have a problem keeping it cool. I keep it cool now just leaving my door open.
Thanks for your help. I will update you when I get the holes cut in my wall and everything installed. I think I will go pick up a new fan this afternoon.

Very nice. Personally I would have just drilled a hole in the door.

IMO 160CFM is probably the minimum you should be looking at for that light.

I exhaust up my chimney with a 440cfm I can vent all my small apartments air in less than 1min if necessary and it all goes up up up all the way to the 4th story and taken away by the wind.
