DIY VENTILATION SYSTEM FOR UNDER 25 QUIDS
YOU WILL NEED
CARD BOARD BOXES = 4 (FREE FROM ANY SHOP)
CLOTH TAPE = 2 ROLLS (£1 ANY POUNDSHOP)
FAN HEATER ( £6 B AND M's / POUNDSHOPS / WILKOS)
OSCILATING 9 INCH FAN 3 SPEEDS (£7 B AND M's / POUNDSHOPS / WILKOS)
DRAINPIPE (FOUND MINE FREE) BUT CAN ALSO USE A DRIER VENT PIPE VERY FLEXIBLE AND ENDENDABLE FOR A FEW QUID (£2 TO £3 B AND M's / POUNDSHOPS / WILKOS)
HEAVYDUTY REFUSE SACKS (£1 MOST SHOPS)
1 WINDOW IN THE ROOM
THUMBTACKS (£1 FROM ALMOST ANY SHOP)
INSTRUCTIONS
RIGHT TO BEGIN WITH THIS IS A VERY EASY SIMPLE DESIGN BUT VERY EFFECTIVE AND LOW COST!!
IT COULD BE SET UP IN VARIOUS SHAPE ROOMS OR SETUPS AS ITS VERY FLEXIBLE IN DESIGN AS LONG
AS YOU STICK TO THE BASIC PRINCIPLES (1 FRESH AIR IN) (2 OLD AIR OUT) IT SHOULD BE SIMPLE
I WILL EXPLAIN HOW TO RIG THE BAGS TO THE FAN AND FAN HEATER AND WE WILL USE THE BOXES AS AIR JUNCTIONS OR CORNERS AND HOW TO FIX TWO BOXES TO A WINDOW TO USE AS AIR IN / AIR OUT.
1: TAKE A BLACK BAG AND SPLICE OF THE BOTTOM AND SIDE SO IT OPENS UP INTO A RECTANGLE SINGLE SHEET OF PLASTIC.
2: GET YOUR OSCILATING FAN AND WRAP THE SINGLE BLACK SHEET AROUND THE FRONT OF THE FAN UNTIL
IT OVER LAPS A LITTLE AND TRIM OFF THE EXCESS SHEET.
3: TAKE THE TRIMMED BLACK SHEET AND FOLD ONE EDGE TO THE TRIMMED EDGE AND GET YOUR CLOTH TAPE AND TAPE ALONG THE SEEM OF THE OVERLAPPED JOINT.
4: YOU SHOULD NOW HAVE A TUBULAR BLACK SHEET, TAKE ONE END AND FIX TO THE FRONT OF THE OSCILATING FAN AND TAPE AROUND WITH THE CLOTH TAPE UNTILL SECURELY FIXED ON PLACE TAKING CARE NOT TO BLOCK THE BACK INTAKE OF THE FAN AS THIS WILL BE PLACED IN THE GROW ROOM AS THE EXTRACTION FAN.
5: ATTACH THE OTHER END OF THE BLACK SHEET TO THE AIR OUTLET PIPE / DRIER PIPE AND CLOTH TAPE IN PLACE TAKING CARE NOT TO BLOCK THE HOLE INSIDE THE PIPE.
6: NOW TAKE ONE OF YOUR BOXES AND SPLICE OF THE FOLDING TOPS OF THE BOX THEN TAKE YOUR FAN HEATER AND PLACE IT IN THE BOX AND CLOTH TAPE INTO PLACE MAKING IT AIRTIGHT.
TH REASON I USE A FAN HEATER FOR THE AIR INTAKE IS BECAUSE IF THE AIR IS TO COLD BEING DRAWN FROM OUTSIDE BY THE FAN HEATER THEN I CAN JUST TURN THE HEATER ON AND IT WARMS UP THE FRESH AIR FROM OUTSIDE
7: NOW TAKE YOUR DRAINPIPE / DRIER PIPE AND CUT A HOLE IN THE SIDE OF THE FAN HEATER BOX JUST BIG ENOUGH FOR THE DRIER PIPE / DRAIN PIPE TO SLOT INTO AND CLOTH TAPE INTO PLACE MAKING AIR TIGHT.
THIS WILL ALSO BE PLACED INSIDE THE GROWROOM FOR FRESH AIR INTAKE.
8: NOW DEPENDING ON YOUR STYLE/SHAPE OF GROWROOM AND WINDOW PLACEMENT AND SHAPE WE WILL BE FIXING TWO BOXES TO THE WINDOW ONE WILL BE INTAKE AND ONE EXTRACTION.
I FOUND IT TO BE EASIEST TO TOTALLY BLACK BAG THE WINDOW ONE HALF FIRST CLOTH TAPING INTO PLACE AS TO CREATE TO 2 SEPARATE CHAMBERS TO ONE WINDOW.
9: NOW TAKE ONE BOX AND UNFOLD THE FLAPS AND PLACE THE BOX ONTO THE BLACK BAGGED WINDOW FOLDS/FLAPS OUT AND THUMB TACK INTO PLACE USING THE FLAPS TACKING THEM TO THE WINDOW FRAME AND CLOTH TAPE INTO PLACE.
10: REPEAT THIS PROCESS ON THE OTHER HALF OF THE WINDOW MAKING SURE THE 2 CHAMBERS ARE CLOTH TAPED AND SEPARATED FROM ONE CHAMBER TO THE OTHER AS NOT TO MIX AIR IN THE INTAKE AIR BOX.
11: NOW DEPENDING ON GROW ROOM SIZE/SHAPE/STYLE YOU WILL RUN THE EXTRACTION PIPE FROM THE OSCILATING FAN TO THE EXTRACTION AIR BOX ON THE WINDOW AND CUT HOLE INTO BOX PLACE EXTRACTION PIPE INTO HOLE AND CLOTH TAPE AIR TIGHT REPEAT THIS PROCESS FOR THE INTAKE PIPE AS WELL AND FIX ONTO THE AIR INTAKE BOX ON THE WINDOW CLOTH TAPING IT IN PLACE AIR TIGHT.
12: IT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA TO CLOTH TAPE ALL OF THE EDGES AND SEEMS OF THE BOXES AND GIVE THE WHOLE SETUP A ONCE OVER WITH THE CLOTH MAKING CERTAIN ALL JOINTS AND CONNECTIONS ARE AIR TIGHT.
I HAVE LEFT MANY PICTURES AND A VIDEO OF MY G/ROOM TO AID IN MY INSTRUCTIONS AND I UNDERSTAND IT WILL HAVE TO BE SLIGHTLY MODIFIED TO TO FIT OTHER GROOMS AS TO SIZE SHAPE AND WINDOW PLACEMENT BUT IT WORKS PERFECT FOR ME AND HELPS TO CONTROL MY TEMPS PERFECTLY!
AND AS THE OSCILATING FAN HAS 3 SPEEDS I CAN CHOOSE HOW FAST THE AIR GETS PULLED OUT OF THE ROOM
AND THE FAN HEATER FOR INTAKE ALLOWS ME TO CONTROL TEMPS OF THE FRESH AIR INTAKE
I REALLY HOPES THIS WILL BENEFIT SOMEONE AS IT IS ME BECAUSE NOT ALL PEOPLE HAVE THE MONEY FOR EXPENSIVE EQUIPMENT AND ALL THE SPECIALIZED GROWING GEAR SO THATS WHY I MADE THIS THREAD SO ALL PEOPLE CAN ENJOY GROWING THEIR OWN WEED AND IF VENTILATION WAS A PROBLEM THAT STOPPED DUE TO NOT ENOUGH FUNDS THIS SHOULD HELP IF IT HELPS ONLY 1 PERSON THEN IM A HAPPY CHAPPY AND ITS DONE ITS JOB!
THANKYOU EVERYONE AND PEACE OUT!
