Old Reviews 4 inch flange problem

[lykaboss]

Ok so i had a off brand ebay 4 inch carbon filter, the 4 inch ducting fit perfect over it. I just got in my new 4 inch x 12 inch Phresh filter and the ducting will not fit over it. Its slightly larger. I took my old carbon filter and matched u the flangs to the new Phresh filter and the old carbon filter flange and actually slide into the Phresh filters flange. Anyone ever run into this problem? Is seems like it might be a 4 1/2 inch flange :no:

I noticed that too, luckily i had two sets of ducting and one of them fit! i didnt measure to see if the flange was to big or the duct was to small

yea but for the more expensive filters, there shouldnt be problem. the ducting should slide right on lol. Either way, i emailed them asking them what was up

ok so with that being said... what is the solution? Do i get 6 inch ducting... or can you link me to 4 inch ducting that will actually work

this isnt the same brand ducting as mine but looks the same, seemed to have a little more stretch then the metal ducting.

How noisy is that ducting bro? I usually use insulated for sound reduction and no heat escape as I vent through a wall :smokebuds:

not really sure bro, i only have like a 2-3 foot piece, the rest is the metal.
