Fans for 8 in duct and larger serve 5x5 and bigger tents, grow rooms, workshops and long duct runs. Airflow ranges from about 700 CFM for an 8 in fan to over 1,600 CFM for a 12 in one, and they get loud at full speed, so most owners run them partway down. Each fan’s airflow is scored against others of its own duct size.
