Lightbulb Ultimate DIY Carbon Scruber Under $100 Fan and All
permalink
Alright Guys
This took a total of 30 min to complete
and less than a hundred dollars.
You can find all the necessities at your hardware store and Petstore.

Materials Needed:

6 or 8'' Duct booster 250cfm/ 300cfm $35

Activated Carbon. $12

Duct Tape $4

Junction box and cover $3

Junction box power wire clamps $2

Foil Tape $ 12

Duct zip ties $10

8' 14 Gage power cord no female plug $10

Plenum box with 6'' adapter $12

Metal mesh filter $8




Alright lets Get Started.


Take your Metal Filter and tape it into a bag with Duct tape and Fill with the Activated Carbon.




Next use the Screws included with the duct fan and screw on your Junction box. Make sure you pre punch the holes.



Next, is the wiring just match the colors and put the wiring coupling before wiring into box.



Use Wire nuts to connect the wiring together. NOT electrical tape. And put on the Juction box cover.




Now For the Duct plenum box find a screen you can use and cut into shape. This is so the filter bag stays flat.






Now stuff in the filter bag and insure that it is flat against the surface.




Lastly attach your fan with the arrow of air flow pointing down. So the fan is pulling through the carbon filter.
Use the remainder screws to attach the two and seal the seam with foil tape.





I drilled some holes on top of the box to add hooks so I could hang it. You can attach a 6'' duct with the zip ties and lead it out your room if you wish.

Thats it guys, Keep it safe and secure
Happy and Safe growing

~~Joe~~

Do you just let it sit in the middle of your room and it works? Or did you just not show us the picture of it being attached to a exhaust?

Yeah Its stand alone for now.
Like I said above I drilled some holes that it could hang and you can attach a duct line to run out.
Works Great

Thanks Charlie Green, Ive seen so many different variations of scrubbers on here.

Lots of diy filters but none with a fan.
