upside down blower

[shepdog]

Due to ceiling height limitations, I am running my blower beside the cyclone, upside down with an 8" wide radius bend between the cyclone outlet and blower inlet. Thus, the motor is hanging from the blower housing...this shouldn't really have any major impacts, should it?

Just paranoid after my first test run (see other post)....

The blower position won’t make any difference if the motor can be used in any position. The least amount of bends in the duct will give you better air flow. Check the gallery for some ideas.
