How To - Carbon Filter

[Tokudai]

With a scrubber, generally its at one end or another of the system - you pull air through it or exhaust through it.

This particular type of unit will not work "inline" (ie in the middle of a system) since it pulls (or exhausts) air through the side of the canister

i see... guess i'll have to chang my plans a bit

Couldnt you just suck air out of your cool-tube into a vent tube then into the scrubber (or blow through the cool tube, to vent, to scrub)? Thats what I'd do I think. One of these is still in my future, so with a grain of salt.

Hey, nice thread, good instructions imp: I was just wondering, do you think this fan would work if i hooked it up somehow http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...6168&rd=1&rd=1 thanx.

This is awesome.

I think the best way to implement this device into your exhaust would be to have the scrubber, then the inline fan, then the ducting, then the exhaust port.

(Scrubber)(Inline Fan)(Ducting)(Exit Port)

I'm gonna make a few of these!

With a few modifications (making the carbon chamber perpendicular to the airflow and using a solid material as the outer layer) you could make one of these to work "inline." THe filter would lose surface area, however.

Thats exactly how I run mine, but with the light in the middle.. Theres just a 6" exhaust port piped to the roof

If you are really creative and build the grow room to suit, you can get away with 1 fan for intake, exhaust, circulation and light cooling

I just made one of these using Bodom's general guidelines.

Now I just have to go to the store and buy some pantyhose. I'm sure I'll get some weird looks.:rasta:

so im guessing to use this, hang it up somewhere in your grow room and it eliminates the odor? I was under the impression, you also needed some sort of fan to blow through.

Let me know, my babies are 2 weeks, and i can tell there gonna be stinky (xxtra skunk)

[Tokudai]

^^Nope, you were right - you need a fan to pull or push the air through the media to remove the odor.

thank you, im going to get the parts over this christmas break and make it. is it very effective?
