OK mates, so I picked up a used 220V Grizzly 3HP DC a few months ago, it is one of those beasts with 4 bags. It is WAY TOO MUCH DC for me and my tiny shop, but it was only $100 so I had to go for it.
Anyway, to my question; My shop is only 15 x 25, and is in the basement of my house just below the family room, that DC is gonna sound like a jet taking off. So I plan on building a 'closet' to put it in. It will be around 5' by 6', it will also house my circuit breaker panel and the central vac for my house. I want to soundproof the room and ceiling as much as possible.
Do I need a vent to prevent negative airflow to/from the DC? Or can the room get sealed nice and tight?
Secondly, any good tips on how to soundproof effectivly?
Thanks in advance,
Lee
