I Forge Iron

Range hood vent?


Recommended Posts

So I have started casting some stuff in my shop in my forge. I have wanted to install some better ventilation regardless of the casting. I have never really had a problem before hand as I can open the doors and get some good air flow also have a filteration system I turn on normal when grinding or any situation where stuff is flying but this stuff is just nasty. I have two vents on the roof was thinking of installing an old stove range hood with fan to some stove pipe. The question is? Is this an adequate solution and two what’s the recommend height from the forge. I plan on building a portable foundry so this is more for the forge in the future.
