So I've been growing in a gorilla grow tent that is 2ft x 4ft x 6'11 ft and I run one LED light that is putting out 425 true watts. I was using in the past a handy me down 6in inline and carbon filter that had defiantly seen better days and been used heavily... I grew in house and noise was never issue with it humming allday in backroom, I have now recently moved into downtown apartment and have neighbors all around me, if I turn that ole' inline on now i'll have all the neighbors knocking on my door for sure, I still want to grow and now have a few grows under my belt and don't mind upgrading my fan and filter... I want to build a new setup so quiet a baby can sleep in their and I can hear my oscillating fan over it. I need one my neighbors will never ever ever ever ever hear....
There's so many new fan set ups I've thought of and I just can't figure out which way to go what to buy so I wanted to see or hear from you guys if you've had any experience with quiet ass inline fans insulating ducts the whole nine yards etc
I've looked at Panasonic whisperline 240 CFM but heard they get louder as they age so kinda threw that to side immediately...
Then looked at vortex vtx600 and the eficent 6 inch and have been seriously leaning towards getting a vtx600
Then I looked at mufflers and silencers and I can't tell if they really are gonna work or not on this vtx600 or if I need to go the route of speed controllers to try and get this fan purring like a cat... Or if I am suppose to do both...
Does name brands really matter with silencers and carbon filters? Phresh?
I'm just lost and this whole 6inch fan for such a baby grow is so overkill I've always thought anyways too idk if it's better for me to downgrade to a 4 inch or not but I heard bigger fans at half speed are less loud then 4s...
Just Lookn For Advice Before I Start Breaking The Bank Experimenting Again, Thanks...
