The Blue Ox OX1100 air cleaner in the color gray.

Woodshop Dust Removal

Blue Ox 1100 air cleaners were installed at a home woodshop to control dust and prevent it from entering the living space.

OX1100 air filtration systems feature a Straight-Thru airflow pattern to draw air in through filters and push it through a grill/ fan on the other side.

These units are an excellent choice for woodshop dust applications because they operate quiety and can be used individually or in groups.

✓ 1,100 CFM
✓ 1/4 H.P. Direct Drive Fan
✓ Warranty: 3 years on all parts (excludes filters)

Application: Wood Shop

I used to open the door to work, which was a nightmare in the winter time. With the Blue Ox, I no longer have to. And my wife is happier now that my shop dust stays in the shop.

-- Scott

Summary: Olde Dog Woodworking is a small home-based woodshop that focuses on fine custom residential installations. Scott specializes in fireplace mantles, custom cabinetry, bars, bookshelves and high-end specialty built-ins of all kinds.


Challenge:Because the shop is located in the basement of a home, wood dust frequently finds its way into the living space. This is not only an annoyance, but a health hazard. In spite of a source capture dust collection system, wood dust is constantly in the air and settling on various surfaces in the shop.


Solution:Since the space is small, a strategically placed OX1100 was enough to generate a sufficient air pattern. The addition of a secondary system has dramatically reduced the amount of airborne particles and eliminated the spread of wood dust into the living space.
