What the Canaan Avalon Q Shroud Does
The Canaan Avalon Q shroud attaches to the exhaust side of your miner and accepts a standard 6″ or 8″ flex duct. You route that duct wherever the heat needs to go — out a window, into an HVAC vent, through a wall, or into a cold room you want to heat. The miner’s exhaust air goes where you direct it instead of blasting sideways into your living space.
Miners across Europe running the Canaan Avalon Q exhaust shroud consistently report a noticeable drop in ambient room temperature within the first hour. The Canaan Avalon Q draws 1,674W — that’s a serious amount of heat generation for a compact home environment. Controlling where that heat goes is not optional if you want to run your miner 24/7 efficiently and comfortably.
The Canaan Avalon Q shroud Europe edition ships ready to install, with zip ties included. Nothing else needed.
5-Minute Installation — No Tools Required
Installing the Canaan Avalon Q exhaust shroud is straightforward. Here’s the full process:
- Slide the shroud onto the two existing screws on the back of your Canaan Avalon Q
- Secure the opposite side with the included zip ties for a flush, airtight fit
- Attach your flex duct to the shroud opening
- Route the duct to your chosen exhaust point
- Switch your miner back on
No drilling. No modifications to your miner. No special tools. The Canaan Avalon Q shroud is a removable accessory — it will not affect your warranty. For the full Canaan Avalon Q spec sheet and exhaust port dimensions, see the official Canaan Avalon Q product page.
Want an extra-tight seal? A strip of tape on the right side of the shroud closes any remaining gap completely. Most customers find it unnecessary straight out of the box, but it’s there if your setup demands it.
6″ or 8″ — Which Size to Choose for Your Canaan Avalon Q Shroud
The Canaan Avalon Q exhaust shroud is available in two duct sizes. Choose based on your existing ducting or planned setup:
| Size | Duct Diameter | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| 6″ | ~150mm | Standard HVAC flex duct, window kits, dryer vent setups. Available at any European DIY store. |
| 8″ | ~200mm | Maximum airflow. Best for longer duct runs or high-heat environments. Recommended if unsure. |
Unsure which size to order for your Canaan Avalon Q shroud Europe setup? Go 8″. Standard duct reducers are available at Hornbach, Leroy Merlin, Brico, B&Q, and any similar store across Europe. You can always step down to 6″ with a reducer — you can’t add airflow capacity you didn’t build in.
Why PETG, Not PLA — Important for European Climates
Every Canaan Avalon Q exhaust shroud from CryptoCloaks EU is printed in PETG. This is not an accident — it is the correct material for this application, and it matters more in Europe than most people realise.
PLA — the most common and cheapest 3D printing material — softens at approximately 60°C (140°F). The Canaan Avalon Q exhaust runs close to this temperature range during extended operation. During a warm Central European summer, with ambient temperatures in a closed room potentially reaching 30°C+, a PLA Canaan Avalon Q shroud risks deforming, losing its seal, and failing entirely.
PETG handles sustained temperatures up to 80°C (176°F) without deformation. Your Canaan Avalon Q shroud Europe order will be in PETG by default — we don’t offer PLA because it would let you down.
For a detailed comparison of 3D printing materials in high-heat applications, All3DP’s PETG vs PLA breakdown covers exactly why PETG is the right call for mining accessories.
The Heat Problem European Miners Face
European homes present a different challenge than American ones when it comes to home mining. Apartments are the norm across most of Europe. Rooms are smaller. Ceiling heights are lower. The Canaan Avalon Q’s 1,674W heat output — enough to significantly warm a medium-sized room — becomes unliveable faster in a compact European space.
Running the Canaan Avalon Q without a proper Canaan Avalon Q shroud Europe solution means:
- Heat accumulating faster in smaller rooms
- Your miner’s intake air temperature rising as exhaust recirculates
- Efficiency losses as the miner throttles in high-ambient conditions
- Your HVAC or fans working harder to compensate, eating into your margin
- Uncomfortable living or working conditions during summer months
One Canaan Avalon Q exhaust shroud, one duct run to a window or vent, and all of these problems disappear. It is genuinely the best €25 you can spend on your mining setup.

The Space Heater Angle — Popular Across Northern Europe
Not every European miner wants to duct heat outside. Particularly in Germany, Scandinavia, the Netherlands, and the UK, running the Canaan Avalon Q as a supplemental space heater through winter is a popular and genuinely efficient strategy.
The Canaan Avalon Q shroud makes this precise. Instead of heat radiating uncontrolled in every direction, you route it exactly where you need it — into a cold hallway, bathroom, home office, garage, or workshop. In the morning you point it one way. In the evening, another. You’re in control of where 1,674 watts of heat output actually goes.
Mining bitcoin AND heating your home for free is not a fantasy. It’s what the Canaan Avalon Q exhaust shroud Europe makes possible. You’re earning sats and offsetting your heating bill simultaneously — the most efficient use of electricity most home miners will ever find.
