Grizzly Dust Collector

[3ps]

Hi, I am still trying to decide on a dust collector. I am now looking at grizzly.com. I am interested in either their 1hp or 2hp canister units. The 1hp is good for 2.5 micron and the 2hp is good for 1 micron. I am planning on using it for a buddy system. The 2hp unit has a lot higher cfm. Do I need the higher cfm's or is it a waste? Thanks for any input. Doug

Choosing a DC system can be a challenge, I faced this almost 2 years ago and chose a 3HP Super Dust Gorilla from Oneida Air. I don't know what's up with their website right now, it refers you to an IP address and some systems pop up an alert on them.

I've been happy with my system. Getting more cfm will move more air and collect more dust. One of the primary reasons I choose this system was the noise level. I was having a tough time deciding until I heard a Grizzly running, loud, very loud. I have an inner ear issue so for me it's a big deal, for others it may not matter so much.
