View Full Version : Eyeball vents on panel


March 3rd 14, 03:19 PM
Can you share your experience with the use of an eyeball vent on the the panel. I'm specifically interested if the canopy might fog up if I completely redirect the air from the forward vent below the canopy (I have a Discus)

Thanks,

Common practice is to "Y" the tubing so you can use both. This allows you to defog the canopy when needed.

My Discus CS has an eyeball vent on the lower left side of the panel and I'd hate to be without it. Source is shared with the forward vent below canopy.

What Tim said.

On my Mini Nimbus, without the forward vent the canopy fogs up at certain times and it is very loud too. The eyeball is great for directing fresh air and is used 95% of the time. Having both vents is a win/win.
