Ventilating a Cigar Room

08-26-2012, 04:58 PM

We have converted out basement, an old fallout shelter, into a cigar room. We have 2 separate pipes that run to the outside as vents. They are 2 3/4 inch in diameter. We are trying to figure out an easy, inexpensive and not too ugly way to attach some type of fan or exhaust fan to these to help suck out the smoke.

The room itself is 8 x 10 and the pipe are on adjoining walls about 10 feet away from each other. We tried a small computer fan reversed but it doesn't have enough drawing power to help empty the room.

Any suggestions?
