Abstract
A vacuum system that includes a planter frame. A row unit bracket couples to the planter frame. A fan couples to the planter frame and draws air through a row unit. An exhaust duct extends through the row unit bracket. The exhaust duct couples to the fan and discharges airflow from the fan towards the ground. A diffuser reduces a speed of and/or redirects the airflow as the airflow exits the exhaust duct.
