   Michael,
   The fan we used was made by Fantech (model number DBF110). You can read more about it at their website at http://www.fantech.net It is available from several suppliers online.

   We are in need of an inline fan, but our ducting runs inside the walls and is not accessible except for the metal piece coming from the wall to the dryer, and the part the vents to the outside. Is there an inline fan that can be installed on the exterior, where the vent exhausts to the outside?

   Yes Kristi, there is an exterior fan that works just like the inline ones. They are more expensive 125+. I think fantech makes them as well. I could be off, I researched this last year. Just do a web search for exterior dyer booster fans. You should be able to find something.

   Is it common for a dryer boost fan to have water dripping from it??? I have noticed when my wife is drying towels for example there is a lot of moisture…. Water will actually drip from my dryer boost fan, which means my dryer ducting will rust out eventually??? This is in a new home, what should I do????
