I did exactly that and took their 4 inch inline fan. Also replaced the
slightly smaller heater tube with 4 ID aluminum ducting. Followed Tim
Smith's instructions and insulated the duct with fiberglass and duct tape.
I'm pretty sure that, with a little ingenuity, you can also keep your old
heater tube and adapt it to the 4 in. fan, if you want to.
