Just looking to reduce heat from electronics and moisture. When I open my door I can feel the heat coming out.Why are you looking to mount fans? Is it to lower temp? I would mount some fans on the top to blow air across the top of the water and promote evaporation.
- Blow in.
- If you can find IP rated fans for more than dust, try those. Expect sticker shock.
- Try to avoid recirculation. If you can have an air intake in a place that exhaust air won't just find its way back around in a millisecond, its better off.
- Positive pressure is good, but having a dedicated exhaust area is much better than having a bunch of cracks for it to leak out of.
In your case, how much space is there between the wall?
I'd personally put intake fans in the back (for the looks), and cut an exhaust spot with a grile on the opposite end. Put a baffle or divider somewhere in the back to push the air out, and not just recirculate behind the stand.
I agree. The only drawback I see is you're blowing dust in, instead of drawing it out - you'll get dust buildup around all exit points.Ideally fans blowing in with vents/holes for the warm moist air to exit.
One fan IN and one fan OUT blows the same amount of air as one fan IN. Think about it. Best to have any fans blowing IN with passive exit.
