I'm already using a carbon filter connected to the exhaust fan. It still smells a little bit. And then Im worried about the smell after I harvest. Will a air purifier do the tricK? this is the one I'm looking at to get at Wal-mart
Walmart.com: Therapure HEPA Air Purifier: Home Improvement (http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=9189156)
Its Hepa Air purifier
Has anyone used a air purfier with sucess? They claim to cover up smell and arn't bad for you like ozone generators.

Thanxs

Ozone down around me bad ozone way up high good. It changes the molecule structure into some thing that makes my brain hurt and my meds don't work. LOL

Ionic Breeze and hepa air filtration systems...for more than 3 (2 ft tall) plants is not a great way to go. They just aren't strong enough to handle the odor.

Honestly, Perhaps your carbon filter is not big enough...but then again, even with my big ass filter (you can still smell the girls a little bit when you are in my place). But, you can not smell my grow outside the house (which i think is the most important thing to concern yourself with).

My advice...get a bigger carbon filter. :jointsmile:

Ozone & Febreze are always good. But an air purifiers (http://www.sourcingmap.com/new-mini-ionic-air-cleaner-and-purifiersh1003b-white-p-6545.html) all the smoke and smell gets sucked into the filter as well.

What size carbon filter do you have? Whats its rated max CFM? What is the CFM of your fan that its attached to? Are you pushing or pulling air through it?

Like Martyr said that wont work very well unless its a small plant.

Ona is the shiz. It helps absorb the stank, and does not alter the flavor!:pimp:
