Question about Dust Collectors

Upscale · 2005-08-04T02:03:56+00:00

Has anyone ever measured the decibel rating of their central shop vac? I'mlooking for something that's as quiet as possible, suitable for using in aroom in an apartment. Ideally, I'd be able to use it in the middle of thenight without the neighbours banging on the door. I know that air flow isgoing to have it's own decibel rating. That's something I'd deal with afterfinding a suitable machine that's reasonably quiet from the get go.Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Is your stove electric? Dryer?

All electric, so the power's there, just haven't actually looked into transferring some of it to another room. However, at this time it's all conjecture. I'm in a single bedroom apartment at this point. While finding and renting an affordable wheelchair accessible workspace outside the where I live so far has been close to impossible, moving to a two bedroom apartment is well within the bounds of possibility. One step at a time.
