air scrubbers/negative air machines


just google air scrubber for more info. i like the abatement technologies brand



Air scrubbers have been used for years both in asbestos/mold remidiation

projects. they are a metal square box that has a three stage filter system. a

prefilter/charcoal filter/ a intermidiate filter/ and hepa-high efficiancy

particulate arrestance. which removes particles as small as 0.3 microns...really tiny a lot better than your hvac systym...

anyway if you calculate your rooms dimentions lxwxh you will be able to find your total volume of air needed.how many cfm's need to have negative air pressure inside grow room.....4-6 air exchanges per hour is ideal.

by doing this you will have a hospital like enviroment and no odor, plus the machine only pulls like 4 amps.

the best way to use it is to set it outside grow room cut a hole into grow room hook up to machines intake and duct back into room at opposite end

when you walk into the grow room door will slam shut behind you, from the airpresure. nothing odors, dirt, germs will leak out of room all of it will go into machine.
