Many thanks Mr Clandestine,
I will try the bungee cord's as it sounds like a good idea and makes sense mate:thumbsup:
The intake fan is above my bedroom and its pissing me off.
Thanks for the advise Nice one Cheers.
Greenthing Reviewed by Greenthing on . Fan noise I have a four inch intake fan and its a bit noisy how can i silence it, would it be safe to put it into a box of some sort or would that make it overheat.:) Or is it the air coming in through air ducting making the noise. :( Rating: 5
