I have a Jet 2 HP 2 stage dust collection system. I was wondering if
any of you have any tricks to make it quieter. For example, could I
wrapp the impeller housing in foam or something. I know I should not
affect the motor cooling or the air escape....

I've also thought about building a little closet for it with enough
opening to allow air flow.

Ideas?


I have mine in a corner with a couple of 4' x4' ceiling insulation panels
leaning against it.. helps some...

In the next shop, it will be outside, in an insulated box with a cooling and
vent fans..
