I use a Delta 1HP barrel top dust collector to catch the chips from my 10" Jointer/Planer. I know it does not collect all the dust particles so I always wear a quality dust mask. It does an adequate job of collecting the chips and the larger dust particles though. It lets the finer dust through the bag and back into the air. Also when started up the filter bag causes a puff of fine dust to float off of it. This leaves the shop quite "dustly" when I run it.
My thought was to connect some hose to the exhaust Side of the collector and place the filter bag outside the shop to exhaust the bulk of this dust. This plus my overhead air cleaner would keep the shop (and garage) less dusty. I am in Phoenix and only use the shop Oct-May when the temps are more moderate.
My question is: would running say 10' of exhaust hose significantly reduce the effectiveness of my chip/dust collection.
