6″ Window Exhaust Port

Description

Overview

The part that ends the run. A flanged 6-inch port designed to sit in a window opening or a cut panel, so the exhaust leaves the building through a proper fitting instead of a length of flex duct wedged under a sash.

What it fits

Standard 6-inch duct on the inside, flanged face on the outside. It is designed to be mounted through a panel — a piece of plywood, acrylic or foam board cut to fill a sliding window opening is the classic approach for a setup that has to be reversible.

Measure before you order. Fit dimensions in this line are derived from published fan and chassis geometry and are not yet validated against measured production hardware. Check your flange size and the clearance around your machine against the footprint in the specifications below. If something does not fit, tell us — that is how the next revision gets better.

How it is used

Cut a hole in your window panel, mount the port through it, clamp the duct to the inside collar. That gives you a sealed, permanent-feeling termination that you can still remove entirely when the season changes or when you move out.

Why it helps

The termination is where most home mining ducting falls apart — a duct hanging out a cracked window lets almost as much air back in as it pushes out, and it is exactly the sort of thing that makes a setup look temporary and unserious. A proper flanged port turns the exhaust into part of the building rather than a hose stuck out a gap.

• Flanged face for clean through-panel mounting
• Designed for reversible window-panel installs
• Standard 6-inch collar on the duct side
• Single continuous body, no assembly

Every shroud D-Central designs is released as an open file. The geometry for this part is free to download from our 3D models download center: use it, modify it, remix it, run it in your own shop, sell what you make from it. There is no licence to buy and no design gated behind a purchase. Shared knowledge is the whole reason this industry has open hardware at all, and we are not going to be the ones who stop passing it on.

This listing is for the finished part: made to order in PETG and shipped from Montreal, Quebec. If you would rather have it in your hands than spend an evening making one, buy it here — that is what pays for the next design in the line. You can also support the open-source work directly through D-Central’s fund page.

Works with

• 8″ Window Exhaust Port
• 6″ 90° Duct Elbow (Compact)
