Dust filtration unit

[rydods]

Just wondering...For the companies out there with your install garage bay open to the rest of your shop, besides the obvious constant dusting and cleaning the tables and floors. Is there a recommended filtration unit anyone can recommend for keeping dust down to a minimum? My shop is clean but every sign and vehicle is tack cloth wiped down just before application and I still feel like I'm fighting a losing battle. I can't imagine adding PPF or tint.

You can look up overhead dust vacs. Most woodworking supply places have them, but I always wondered if they'd kick up more dust just during their on and off cycles. I've definitely wrapped vehicles in dustier shops and we'd always wet the floor prior to any vinyl coming out.

If the doors are open, there's really nothing that you can do. Keep down the static.

This ^^^^^

You can build a unit or two to suit your needs. Best thing would be to have separate clean room, or some type of curtain system like a body shop uses. Curtain system wouldn't stop all of it but I bet it would mitigate the problem.

How loud is that unit?

How loud is that unit?

not bad on the low/mid settings, full power gets pretty loud but in a busy shop with printers running etc it's not too noticeable. I definitely wouldn't call it quite if that is the only thing making noise in a room
