How many sidewall inlets do I need?
We configure the amount of sidewall inlets based on the size of the inlets requested and the total amount of CFM that will be moving through the units under minimum ventilation. The HE will allow 600 CFM per square foot of light trap. Please contact a Dandy Light Traps representative for help configuring light trap configurations.
