Default 200mm Fan mesh / filters

Hi there, I recently bought the HAF 922 case, it come with massive fans and the ability to fit more. I currently live in quite a dusty environment with a rabbit always on the go shedding fur.

So I would really like to attach fan filters or metal mesh to stop as much gunk as possible getting into my computer.

I realize that this case is a High Air Flow case and it doesn't come with fan filters as the makers believe they would decrease the air flow, personally I would be much happier knowing less dust was getting in.

I have searched around but have had no luck whatsoever finding 200mm filters or mesh of this size. I have read a few accounts of people resorting to stretching a pair of tights over the fans.

Could anyone possibly point me in the right direction of purchasing these items?

PS. I would even be willing to buy slightly larger filters / mesh and cut them down to size.

Thanks for any help given.

You can find a guide on using panty hose filters and how to make them in my sig's 1st link. I would also suggest that you take a look at the positive pressure section which may help you to further restrict dust from getting in your case.

Lots of other useful information in there as well. Give it a good read.

Best of luck to you.
