The ducting I used that fits perfectly over the S7 fan and connected to the exhaust blower fan. I ran this from the miners to the a register box

The blow fan to suck the air from the S7s to my already existing hvac system.



EDIT



Sound Reduction Box made from scraps (looks stupid and ugly but effective)



Did this today. Was cleaning out garage and the PSU is loud (Finsky set-up, works amazing but sounds like a jet engine). My son (20 months) kept walking over to is and putting his finger on his lips and saying "shhhh"



Was bored so here it goes.....



So I decided to build a sound reduction box around the rigs and PSU to reduce the sound. This is by no means suppose to look nice, it was left over scraps. I used hvac aluminum tape, nails, screws, scrap wood and insulated with roxul safe 'n' sound insulation.

I am using 2 S7s to heat some rooms in my house. I was able to cut a hole into my hvac duct and utilize the warm air to blow into the hvac.Below are a few pics and links to the items I bought to do this.The ducting I used that fits perfectly over the S7 fan and connected to the exhaust blower fan. I ran this from the miners to the a register box http://www.homedepot.com/p/Master-Flow-10-in-x-4-in-to-6-in-90-Degree-Register-Box-90RB10X4X6/100198141 . the register box was connected to the blow fan and than additional flexible duct was run to the hole in the hvac. It was sealed with foil tape. http://www.homedepot.com/p/Nashua-Tape-1-89-in-x-50-yd-322-Multi-Purpose-HVAC-Foil-Tape-1207792/100030120 The blow fan to suck the air from the S7s to my already existing hvac system. http://www.amazon.com/VenTech-VT-IF-6-B-Variable-Controller/dp/B005KMPN0K Did this today.
