I brew in my garage, it's 24'x28' with a 8' ceiling. I was thinking of putting in an exhaust fan in the wall to suck out fumes and steam, I think im damaging my ceiling (drywall). What size fan would be good? My brewpot would be only 6 to 8 feet from the fan. The louvered exhaust fans on ebay were all huge and expensive, $200 and up. Any suggestions??
 
Is it going into a window or are you dedicating an opening for it? If you are making an opening I would build a plenum and run it to a dryer vent. Otherwise I would biuild a 2x4 frame to mount it to and stick it in a window when needed
