Quietest fan/best performing

[Bundykid]

Yo,
Looking for recommendations for fans. Currently mine are quiet for about 6 months then start to degrade. They still work fine but get noisy. Any brands you guys have found to keep quiet and work well?
While I’m here any one played with infrared heaters? Not those that omit light but the outdoor patio type that radiate heat. My heater is also noisy.
Got a low key opp that no one has noticed for 2 years.
Thanks for the help

I’ve had good luck with the Hurricane 435 cfm fan. I also use a rheostat to dial down the speed which keeps the noise down.

I should have mentioned air circulation fan not extraction. Currently running an iso-max in an insulated box for extraction, super quiet.
Cheers for the hurricanes link, good to see what they have.

Sorry.....my air circulation fans crap out quickly too. I like to use a rotating tower fan and I get about two grows out of a fan before it dies. At least they’re cheap.

and I use a radiator style heater in my tent.

Yeah that’s the same as me. They are crap.
What kind of radiator heater do you use? My heater is an element and fan style, they get noisy as well. Currently sounds like a jet engine starting up.

Here’s the new tower fan I’m going with....30 dollars and will probably last 2-3 grows

Quiet and best performing are not compatible. So in order to prioritize quite over performance one will often need to upsize their fan and duct work due to it's inability to cope with static pressure losses as well as a loud fan.

For circulating fans i switched oscillating monkey fans. Initially one was making a creaking sound when oscillating sounded like a cat meowing but it when away after a couple weeks. I like the pole clip design.
