making a carbon filter path to eliminate odors?

**univ** · 11-28-2009, 01:39 PM

you might have read my other topics in the past 2-4 weeks about odor issues. and if you haven't just take a quick look at this topic so you understand where i'm at then come back to this topic Odor control --help--

now obviously i stated that i can't afford a carbon fan or w/e etc. so i thought of another idea.... what about if i was to add a specific carbon filter in the exhale-window of my tent where the air vents out (pictures included) and maybe that way, it will control odor? only thing is i'm not sure what filters to buy. this seems to be a more affordable way?

thank you in advance for your OPINION

is that the only place the air can leave? if so u will have to put some kinda fan to force the air through the filter as it will restrict the airflow greatly. check the fish isle at the pet store they sell carbon filters maybe something for your aplication

yes two fans, 1 for the 150w hps and 1 to push air out. im going tomorrow so i will check it out, but can you go on amazon.com and show me example of carbon filters you would recommend me. thank you in advance. ( i usually order a lot online, and mostly from amazon ) but if you can find cheaper from another good source, ill be interested to look at it, i don't wanna buy useless or the wrong carbon filters.

Something like this from home depot may work

Its activated carbon sheets for hepa filters

THey are litterally sheets so you could rig(tape, stable, sew???) them things over your window

all of these solutions really wont completely SOLVE your smell problem

for total smell control u need to drop the cash and get a scrubber, the bigger the better
