both will fit, the 2 top vent holes by the door will fit 6 inch fan, the one in the back will fit a 4 inch fan.

There are 4, 6" ports in the side walls and 3, 4" ports on the back wall and ceiling. Two of the 6" ports are high, near the ceiling and on either side of the tent and the other two are down low on the side walls. One of the 4" ports is in the rear, right corner of the ceiling, another is high in the top right hand corner of the tent and the other is in the bottom right hand corner or the tent. I have 6" ducting for my cooling. The 4" appear specifically for electrical wiring pass through. Hope that helps

6 inch this tent is good dont go with earthworth brand in same size got 4 inch holes and cost 40$ more. This tent doesn't even allow light leaks and goes for a good price

There are 2 large vents for ducting, I have 6" duct but 8" would most likely fit (I measured from the outside seam, 8") 2 vents at 4" each (I use the bottom to run power cords) There are also 3 rectangular vents on each wall at 3" X 20" with Velcro to hold them open AND to hold them closed! Been using this tent for about a month and seems great so far!

Both inlet and outlet are the same size. The problem is that the fans give their size as an outside diameter and the pipe you connect them to give their size as an inside diameter. You need a coupler that is two different sizes. This is the right one - price for the two of them is fair. 4" X 4" Flexible PVC Coupling for HP190 Fan MountingIf I remember right the Fernco 1051-54 coupler is what it actually is. The 5/4 isn't a full 5" to 4" but that is what it is called.

I do not believe you will be able to use this vent. The outside flush frame of the vent measures 11-1/2" long X 5-1/2" wide. The box which houses the fans on the underside of the flush frame (which sit into your floor duct opening) is: 9-1/2" long X 3-3/4" wide X 1-3/8" deep. The rough opening on my floor to accept the vent measures 10-5/8" X 4-1/2". Either way, your measured length and width opening will not fit this model.

no you will need to purchase the 6 inch duct and roof vent. This unit is very good and super quite. you can hardly hear the exhaust fan and the heater does a very good job of heating the bathroom

It connects to a six inch duct. You could reduce it with a fitting but this would also reduce the fan's output.

3 in. X 11 in. duct is standard size. You will find the necessary duct adaptors at Home Depot or any hardware store.

It's a perfect fit to slide inside 4" metal ducting. Tape it up and plug it in and you're set! Air flow. Good question!

Felickz, I guess I misspoke about the size of the vent piping size, Which this fan does vent 6". I also recommended using the Broan 636 fan-jack but meant to use the Broan 634 fan-jack for roof installation or if venting sidewall use the Broan 843 which both have a back draft dampers. Hope this clears this up!!!MarkInnovative HVAC Systems, Inc.

Not certain this item is good for your application. Try to see if Fantech has a fan that has a three inch opening. Also, measure your vent length to determine if this model is the right one for your application. Finally, you may be able to change the vent size. If not there is an adapter piece that fits onto the three inch vent to adapt the opening to accept a four inch vent pipe. Obviously you have several choices ahead of you, good luck.

FV-30VQ3 takes a 6" diameter flex duct. They don't make that obvious, do they?

about 6 inches , i got a 4 inch fan. i would go for a 6 inch inline fan, the 4 inch one is not quite cuttin it.

I think your best bet is to match the size of the fan to the size of the hole meant for the ducting coils because ducting will have to fit perfectly around the fan as well as be snuggly fit into the tent. There are drawstrings here the coil goes to the tent. I wouldn't want you to get too small of parts then go through the hassle of returning an reordering.

Good fan. I've got it hooked up to a 4" exhaust tube. I think 5" will work as well, but not 6".

The walls would have to be studded with 2x6's. Walls are typically studded with 2x4's. I installed mine in the ceiling that has 2x6 joists, decked over for attic storage. The fan housing did not obstruct the decking above. The issue will be access on both sides for installation and routing the duct. I recommend going up with the duct unless you plan on cutting a 3 or 4 inch hole through each stud in the route to the intended exhaust vent.

hole for vent needs to be 8" and the fan is centered over that hole with the metal flashing around the fan going under your roof shingles inside if you run duct use 8"round or 8" to 6" adapter
