HotTop - top filter?
Rallen	#1 Posted on 05/03/2013 4:30 PM
Newbie Posts: 16 Joined: October 21, 2012	Hey there. I am picking up an old HotTop tomorrow, as an upgrade from my current Caf? Gene roaster. I have been reading a bit around about the HotTop, and found out that it features 2 filters - a top filter and a back filter. I am planning to replace the back filter with a 120mm aluminum fan gitter is explained in this guide: http://www.frcndi...ilter.html Now I am wondering though, what should I do with the top filter? Can I just leave it as it is? Clean it once in a while (how?), or replace it with something whole different? Any other comments about recommended mods or anything else about the hottop would be much appreciated. Thanks already! Edited by ginny on 05/03/2013 6:25 PM
