    Fan flowrate/Filter flow capacity.

    Just a quick question. I have an extractor fan from Black Orchid. Seen below. It has an effective flowrate of 225m3 per hour. There are two filters I'm considering, both rated well but one with a flow rate capacity of 170m3/h and another at 350m3/h. I'm leaning more towards the higher flowrate capacity because in my mind if I get the lower, 170, I may end up damaging it by trying to force too much air through it. Tell me if I'm completely off the mark here. However the larger is more expensive and I'm a bit tight fisted so I would prefer the smaller, cheaper one. Do you think I can get away with the lower capacity one, or fork out extra now so I won't have to replace a broken one down the line?

    Thanks!
