How strong is the air-flow coming out of the canister filter? What is it comparable to?

The air flow is not noticeable. The mill doesn't seem to pump air in any way, just the grains of flour from grinding.

the air flow is no doubt strong but in my wonder mill the power botton didi not work. the powwer did cut off whiole the machine ran for few seconds. it had technical problem which I could not fix. thanks.

Um, your three year old blowing on you? It's not strong at all, I could set an envelope over it and it wouldn't push it off.

ok, it's really good! well made!, I don't have another thing to compare to, but it is really good air flow, it has never been loosened while milling

Hello, I hope this will help answer your question: My research prior to purchasing the Ventech 4"x12" 210 CFM Carbon filter I was able to contact a Ven Tech distributor who explained that the '210' is the CFM Maximum rating of the filter and any flow greater than 210 would be reduced according to a graduated scale up to the point of an absolute CFM (that rep never said what that was) and at that point would make sense to purchase a larger filter or one with a higher rated CFM. The good news is, that any thing below 210 CFM would not be impeded. In my case I had purchased the VenTech IF4 4" Inline Duct Fan 190 CFM, and at 190 CFM according to the representative I would experience no reduction. Now if your research uncovers contrasting information, let me know. Cheers!

I have the 306 model with a 3 foot long 38g and I have to turn off some of the flow, since the water current is so strong it blows the sand to one side. Now, in theory, the larger the bio-filter area in the canister, the better, so just use less flow.

Yes. The canister simply unscrews. There is a removable filter basket inside that unscrews but usually I just take a round vacuum brush attachment from my big vacuum and simply brush off the filter while standing over a big wastebasket or garbage can. It takes about a minute or less to clean. Extra filters are sort of expensive so I usually just brush off the existing one.

Slight airflow is normal. The unit is not a fan, but it must circulate the air a little in order to clean it.

flow is preety good ,and i would say yes ,becouse i made by myself homebrew canister filter , i have there much smaller pump than aquatop and its doing job so this one should better ,yes

free flow 471 (nothing attached), but will drop quickly with a load, bad choice to use on a carbon filter. It does pump up inflatable ducting much better than the 10" model. pretty quiet fan, silent if turned down a little bit.

Water circulation no. However the manufacture recommends that you not let air bubbles make direct contact with the water intake valve of the filter. Air gets trapped inside the canister and effects the water circulation. Hope this helps.

No, it won't be too powerful! I wondered the same thing when I ordered our filter, but I have been so impressed by it's performance. The water is sparkling clean, the filter runs quietly, and it is easy to maintain. We had a DE filter for years that was ridiculously hard to clean. This one is so easy- just take out the cartridge and spray it with a hose. I wish I had bought this filter years ago.

Once I applied this in line filter, it drasticly reduced my air pressure. So I just canned it. I apologize for bit directly answering your question. But it's somethig I wish I knew prior to purchasing this item

The exhaust blows through a filter on the top but you can't even notice it & I have not had an issue with dust coming out NOR blowing anything around! Another reason why I LOVE this canister vacuum! Still working like a charm with all the pet hair and dirt the dogs and kids track in!

I didn't use it for a filter,I used it for a inline A.C.duct that wasn't blowing hard enough. Even then the fan was not strong enough to make a noticeable differance,will try larger fan.

It's a bit louder than other sponge filters but not that much louder, what's loud is probably your air pump

The suction is very strong.... I liked this so much I replaced my canister vac with a Miele Capri. I use this for floors only because it is too heavy for me to use as a dustbuster etc....

I know the filter goes in between the grid, duh. Thats not my question. I have a green eco filter. What is the flow side?

It has very powerful suction. The different stages of filtration refers to the pressure that the unit sucks. There are different heads for different levels of abrasion. I am happy with my purchase.

Well the air exaust port is on the top of the canister and is filtered so it pretty much expells air in a straight colum of air. You really have to be over the vacuum to feel the exaust.
