I'm thinking about getting this dust collector for a shop I'm building in the basement of our new house. I've been reading that 6" duct is what you want, but the website says this has only 4". The picture shows a wye. Can I remove the wye and expose a 6" duct? Also, can it be rewired for 220 volt? I know the bags on this probably stink, so which Penn State, Grizzly, or other good 1 micron or lower bags fit this thing?
On a separate note, I'm not going to build the shop walls until the house has been through 1 winter and has settled. (Chicago area) Will plastic sheeting stapled to the joists and taped to the floor work as temporary walls to corral the dust? SWMBO has made it clear she can't stand dust in the house. The gas heater is also in the basement, so I want to make sure no dust gets sucked into the house.
Any ideas?

Also, if anybody in the Chicago area is bored and wants to help us pack for the move, PLEASE don't be afraid to offer help. Moving sucks!
