[QUOTE="zogger, post: 4898842, member: 57436"] As to the fans, with the broiler houses here, my boss found that changing the pulleys so that they spun a little slower increased electric motor longevity. Of course those start and stop a lot more often than what you would be doing, which is a lot closer to constant use. Another thought is with you processing that much wood, you must get a certain large amount of "uglies" which might not be suitable for sale, but could be used as a heat source for that building to get the wood heated and dried to official kiln dried standards, enough to kill bugs, etc. So..maybe a lot more heat inside and less airflow?
