Re: Clean air gloat
You will be amazed at the difference in air quaility in your shop with that Bad Boy. I have a Jet, and it has made a world of difference.

Honestly Honey, that will cost around$100$150$200, and I need a few more tools.

Re: Clean air gloat
Some type of air filter needs to be my next investment in the shop.

Re: Clean air gloat
Maybe one day I'll have one. Are they worth the money? Are they very loud? And do you run it all the time while in the shop?
For now I (sometimes) use a box fan with a filter strapped to it. :crybaby2:You can't work without tools. So many tools so little money.

Re: Clean air gloat
I've got a Delta air cleaner and I like it. It is a bit noisy, but, you get used to it after a while. The biggest thing I notice is how much less dust there is on surfaces etc. Plus, I know the air is healthier.
Now, if I could just get a decent DC system in place-------

Re: Clean air gloat
Not sure I've ever seen a comparative review of these suckers (notice the play on words
). I'd love to breathe clean air on occasion (gotten soft since I moved out of NJ
) How noisy does the shop get with the dust collection / vacuum plus the air cleaner plus the tool being used?
RayI cut that board twice and it's STILL too short.

Re: Clean air gloat
It can get noisy Ray, the higher cfm pulled the louder it becomes. It's not only the motors running, but also the noise from the air being moved. It seems even louder if you are ina tight area like a basement (low ceilings).
By the way, where in NJ are you originally from? I'm originally from the Essex,Union county area.

Re: Clean air gloat
I have that one and a jet. Shop is 2 rooms. Keep mine running anytime I'm in the shop. Also leave them set on remote control for 2 hours after I quit work to clean the air. Think they do a good job moving the heat around in the shop also. This is one tool that I couldn't do without! And you WILL need help hanging that thing!

Re: Clean air gloat
I have the three speed Jet and it does a great job of cleaning the air. Noise is not bad. As stated earlier the motor noise is one thing but the air moving through the filter is the other.
One note on hanging it; I used 4 heavy duty springs mounted to my ceiling joists that I then hooked the Jet to. It seems to have cut down on the noise.
