Hi there, I'm currently running several Antminers in a spare room in my basement and the room they are located in gets quite hot, especially now that it is summer time.

I purchased some 3d printed shrouds that screw right overtop of the exhaust fans and can be connected to duct work.
I have been considering buying the appropriate duct work and use a duct collar to mount the exhaust duct out my window.

My main question is, will the force of the air exiting the antminer be enough to push all the air through the duct without overheating the miner itself?
The miner is quite a few feet below the window, and since heat rises I would assume most of the heat would exit through the vent hole, though I am not sure.
I have also seen "in-line boosters" which look like they could help, but are quite expensive when you span them over several miners.

Any thoughts are much appreciated, Thank you Smiley
