I have a 1300 sqft bungalow that I heat with a wood stove (oil furnace only when away.... too expensive).
My stove is at one end of the house, the bedrooms/washroom are at the other. On those nights when it drops to -20C or colder it gets pretty chilly in the bedrooms/washroom and the wife starts wanting to run the furnace.
The hall to the bedrooms is cut off from the living room with the stove by a closet. I'm in the process of building a pass-through in the top of the closet so I can add a fan to blow the warm air from the living room down the hall.... I was thinking about mounting 2 duct boosters side by side and sealing up the space around them so the suck from the lv rm and blow down the hall?
How loud are they?
And will they move a decent amount of air?
can you think of a better air mover that will fit in a 14" X 8" opening (or duct depending on how you want to look at it)?
really don't want to pay for oil its close to .95$/L up here.
cheers!
PS.... I know....... I'm cheap, but its more the principle, I like being as self sufficient as I can.
