There's no cheap way, unless you borrowing someone's equipment. http://www.professionalequipment.com/anemometer/ - http://www.professionalequipment.com/anemometer/

This is pretty crazy,I just happened to have one of those meters in my garage,its a little old but it is in good shape,I have had this thing for like 20 years or more and never used it once,maybe I will get some use of it now,maybe.

Most of the gauges shown will work with the 1 or 2 vac porties out there. To measure TM airflow or high performance portables, you need equipment that can read up to 500 cfm or more.
Here is one of the better ones that will work no matter what you got: http://www.omega.com/ppt/pptsc.asp?ref=HHF751_752_7 - http://www.omega.com/ppt/pptsc.asp?ref=HHF751_752_7 ------------- Inventor of the Teflon Wand Glide and the Turboteck Rotary Air Duct Cleaners for TMs. |
