Dayton squirrel cage fans are top of the line as far as for the need you have.I've got 2 dayton 265 cfm,dayton 465, and 3 hydrofarm 265 cfm.You just need to do preventive maint. on them as time goes by.Little oil on the motor.They are very quiet.The hydrofarm,I have found to be the quietest! I would buy either one.You can get either 1 for less than 90.00 off of ebay.Good luck luck with all! Grow On!

GaGrown Reviewed by GaGrown on . Ventilation question I need a relatively inexpesive ventilation fan for my room, and was thinking about using a Dayton blower. Are these things any good, and are they very loud? I can get one for around $90.00 and seems to be my best bet, but if it's going to be too loud, I need to get like a vortex or something which will set me back another month or two, lol! Anyone ever use the daytons? I haven't heard much about them, so.... Rating: 5
