Blowers

[boater3500]

Need recommendations for replacing my VERY NOISEY Blowers with no deafing ones. My current ones are in-line 4 inch. Any suggestions? Brand? etc?

Thanks!

I like the ITT/Jabsco units, they are heavy duty and move a good amount of air.

yes, use a squirel cage type rather than the inline type. mount the blower on a 1/4" sheet of flexible piece of rubber, then push the rubber together and mount the rubber to the bulk head. use the duct for both the intake and the exhaust to the deck. this kind of set up will acoustically isolate the fan and it will be nearly silent while running.

I have the 4 inch in line (not sure what brand) that was mounted by to the walls from the factory. I just unscrewed them and wire tied them to some hoses that were near them. Cut the vibration and noise down a lot.
