Well I just got off the phone with Epilog...
They advise that my Penn State Industries blower - 1 1/2 HP; 850 CFM - is ideal for a mini. However, he confirmed that Penn State makes the loudest blowers in the industry.
I asked about the inline blowers. He advises they could work but as someone in this thread said earlier, higher CFM is better as it helps the mini keep clean. So I'd need to keep that in mind when considering an inline...higher CFM ones are more cost than I'm interested in spending right now.
So I've come full circle from last night...we're back to the re-work of the venting from the existing exhaust to the outside. God knows I have enough PVC piping on the deck that's been there all winter just itching to get installed! Epilog did suggest we insulate all that piping too. We'll see.
So thank you to all for your thoughts/input! I'll let you know how we make out!

I think this was one of our better discussions.... Hardly got off topic and everyone had good solutions to their individual situations...
My shop is loacated in general business area and the quiter the fan the better for all..... Hard to believe Epilog could not refer a company with a quiter blower.....Insulation would not be a solution in my area.
Dr.s upstairs, Insurance agents nextdoor and computer repair on the other side.............
Be safe working in the attic..........

Tom,
I am not sure what you mean by "Threat" we use this brand and they are very quiet when all connected.
As it has been mentioned more is better when it comes to exhaust. I could never understand why people spend 20K on a laser system and then did not want to get the proper exhaust set-up.

Mike,
They are made by Delta. You can get the same unit at Lowes under the Delta name for $119.95. I use a couple for my wood working equipment.
