INTAKE AND EXHAUST

All cabinet fan systems should contain an 
intake and an exhaust variable, which can 
either be fans or ventilation holes. This is 
required to balance the static pressures 
between the inside and outside of the cabinet.

FAN POSITIONING

Due to natural convection, warmer air which is 
less dense than colder air will rise on its own. 
It is ideal to position fans near the top of the 
cabinet configured to exhaust out the warmer 
air and position fans near the bottom to push in 
colder air.

CFM REQUIREMENTS

A fan or set of fan’s CFM rating measures the 
rate at which air flows into a space. To obtain 
the required CFM rating, divide the dimensions 
of a cabinet by 1728 to get the cubic feet area 
then multiply by three to account for various 
real world variables.
