FreeVenice think about it for a sec, the only way for the air to be clean is for the air to be pushed threw the activated carbon so yes it does need a fan. And yes it can just hang from the grow room.No it does not do anything for the actual plant all it does is clean the air. Example removing odour and mold spores thus making a clean grow room. Ventalating well thats for removing heat and keeping fresh air in your room. The filter doesnt do anything about heat but it does keep your air clean from any nasty air born spores. The is a personal thing but hanging a carbon schubber in a grow room i'd only do that with a sealed room with added CO2. Hope that help you Freevenice. :rastasmoke:

detials setup in order from roof down.

1-cord to attach it to the roof.
2-A Fan to suck the stinky air and push it threw the activated carbon.
3-the actual carbon filter.

hope that helps bud

Thanks alot, I only thought it might help because it is collecting what the plant has breathed out, and that could mean that the plant is able to breath fresher air, in a way. . . I am going to try to get one of these made for the Cab that I am putting together. . .

otherwise just think of something

it just has to be small enough holes so as to not let the carbon/kitty litter fall out. you could probably buy some mesh screen that would work also.

good luck

Bodom i found the perfect thing, it curtian fabric the really thin one that almost see threw. I think it will work great thanks agian man:rastasmoke:

Bordom thank you for saving me $$$ lol , im in the process of building a scrubber /cool tube and this filter is the best ive seen.

I just built a six-inch scrubber using your plans. I saw the same filter online for $250 - It cost about $25 for the materials to make one. Pretty good savings for about an hour of work.

hey, great stuff, uhmm does anybody know if you have to use that fresh step stuff or if you can use just silica crystals. I cant seem to find that fresh steps stuff anywhere...

hey, just found out they sell active carbon filters for like water filters or something, and they are like 9 bux and are made with active carbon.

UUUUUGH! You DA MAN! Wish I could post some pics of mine.....will post pics at post #50......

awsom filter man off to make one

This thread is awesome!
