Carbon scrubber in hot attic?

Are carbon scrubbers affected by high temperatures. I believe 150degF attic temperatures in my climate can be common. I know humidity is bad for carbon scrubbers (shouldn't be an issue for me) but what about heat?

thanks

I can't imagine activated carbon is affected much by 150 degree temps. Considering many people use a cool tube set up sucking the hot air right off the bulb then through ducting and then the carbon filter. Just an educated guess though :joint:

heat is straight.


you need to worry about high humidity. high humidity will clog the pores of the carbon and render it useless
