the 6" can fan has about 15' on the outgoing side and about 25' on the receiving end. if i put a Y on the receiving end and ran two 6" lines would that really help out with air flow on the output end?? or maybe a step up adapter?

Not really. If your using any kind of flex hose/duct, this stuff is like running in sand. Switching to sheet metal duct would be money well spent.

Thanks Jedi, I thought about doing that but I only use that can fan about 4or 5 month's a year when it's too hot to run the big dehumidifier, and I didn't want 40 ft of hose laying around the rest of the time,but I guess I can just keep it up

Just to make sure I understand do you mean 25 feet of intake ducting and 15 feet of exhaust ducting ?
