Inline Blowers: What’s the Difference?"},"content":{"rendered":"\n
It can be hard to decide which type of blower is best for your home. Ensuring the hood will provide adequate ventilation is essential. If the vent does not work, grease, smoke, and odors stay in your kitchen. Local and inline blowers offer unique benefits, but which one is better for you? And what’s the difference between a local blower and an inline blower anyway?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This article discusses the different types of blowers and their benefits. We also highlight the differences between local and inline blowers so you can decide which is right for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A local blower sometimes referred to as an internal blower, is a blower that is located directly inside your range hood. An inline blower is a remote blower not located in the range hood itself but in your ductwork, between the range hood and the end of your ducting.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n There are three main varieties<\/strong> of blower range hoods used to vent the kitchen’s stale air:<\/p>\n\n\n\n A local blower, often called an internal blower, is a blower that is installed within your range hood. Because this fan is close to the filters and the kitchen, it can filter out more airborne pollutants. Also, since it is built into the range hood, it may be louder than a separate external fan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Inline blowers, also called “inline fans,” are remote blowers in your ductwork between your range hood and where the air goes. If you often host dinner parties or want to have people over and have a good time in the kitchen, a hood with an inline blower motor is a great investment. There is less suction power, but they are significantly less noisy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n These fans can still move up to 1300 CFM of air out of your kitchen while running on low power, which is more than adequate for any cooking. When it comes to forcing air through ductwork, inline fans are better than extractor fans. So, put the fan near the duct’s intake rather than its output, particularly for extended runs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n A house with an external blower has a fan outside the building. The normal placement for a blower of this kind is on the roof of a building. A more costly option than local or inline blowers, but one that will leave your kitchen in peace. In addition, the hood may be completely silent while in operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhat are the types of range hood blowers?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
