    Figured I owe an update -

    The dual 370cfm fantech is installed in the configuration shown below


    It's quiet, but not "silent". You really dont hear fan-noise, but rather a hollow sound most likely from the metal box enclosure the fan grilles mount into. Thats if you're sitting in silence listening for it. Just having a conversation puts in the background. Watching TV will be no problem.

    Like Tony said before, this doesnt cause a vortex pulling all your smoke out instantly. It keeps things steady while I smoke and evacuates the room on the timer afterwards. For @Nature scenario of 4 guys herfing, it wouldn't stand a chance. But for my solo use intent, it'll work.

    Flooring installed, lighting installed, fans installed.

    Still need to furnish it and kick around extras, but right now a lawn chair works - lol

    Exactly. For 1 or 2 guys it will keep up but would be a struggle with 4. Not a problem for me as I only ever smoke alone in here.
    I can barley hear mine running with the TV off, not at all with the TV on.

    That lawn chair needs to be replaced though - not befitting of baller status !
    Thanks for the update - we're going to need some picture when the new leather comes in ....
    No cigar until you get a par - birdie if it's a scramble !

    Perfect! Add a couple upside-down 5 gallon buckets and a banana crate and you're good to go!
    Scrounge up a hunk of 2x12 and a couple cinder blocks and you could have a coffee table too
    Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

    Lil bit of History.

    Those large wire reels were ships sailed by grade school kids (boys only) of course on the Oceans in the meadowlands of North jersey. Epic battles waged by rival pirate ships.The water was kinda brownish and smelled a bit funny.The Oceans were Located near a factory. May have been some run off from the plastic production. Polution hadn't been invented back then. Anyway none of the boys turned blue or orange.

    No no ill effects noted even after 70-72 Years.
    I think it's proof of the old Du Pont slogan "Better living through chemistry.'
