Given the makeshift nature, and that it makes air more breathable, I've dubbed it the "Apollo 13":

I'm going to run it over night in the bedroom and see if it makes any appreciable difference.
Great idea on the filtered fan .

Our house has ducted evaporative cooling but that can only be used when the outside air clears or it just brings the smoke in. I am running the motorhome rooftop aircon which is fully filtered and have ducted that into the house, keeps us cooler and the smoke out.

I also covered the extraction fans in the bathrooms as the smoke was coming in through them.
