My equipment is in the center cabinet above the TV. I installed an axial fan in the divider on the left side sucking conditioned air thru the gap between the doors and the gaps around the edges between the doors and the cabinet face frame. I positioned the fan to suck air from equip cabinet and blow out thru gaps around the door on left cabinet.
I have the fan on a cooling stat so it does not run all the time, only when the temp rises to the setting on the stat.
I put spacer blocks under the Hopper with velcro.

I like the fact that you have the fan on a thermostat. Great idea on air movement as well!
