No you have to vent the air away bro. Can't just blow it right back into the room. That would defeat the whole purpose.

You can hook up your carbon scrubber to your inline fan without ducting it out fine. Sealed grow rooms w/ co2 do this often.

I don't vent outside. I use a canister charcoal filter and a Ozone generator. Works for me.

You have to introduce fresh air and remove stale air, unless you are reconditioning the air through oxygen and CO2 enrichment. Having said that, you can scrub it before it's put anywhere else.

you can filter your HAIR, but if you just scrub your air with a charcoal filter, you'll be fine.lol

You have to bring fresh air in for your plants, thus you have to exhaust air, so why not exhaust the scrubbed air? Technically you can scrub the same air without venting.

negative.. in a sealed room you do not need to bring in fresh air.. since your providing the plants with co2 which makes them produce their own oxygen,,, the only reason you bring in fresh air in non sealed rooms is to bring in more co2 from the atmosphere since your plants are using it up as they grow...

I didn't see where he posted about using a C02 Generator, so of course there would be no need to bring in fresh air. Still however you're going to have to deal with heat issues doing that which usually results in A/C.

If you run a good fan and carbon filter and introduce co2 into the room no need to vent the room air, but you will need outside air to cool your light or you will build allot of heat. In my flower room i have an intake duct-ed to my lights then duct-ed to my fan the exhausted out of the room outside air never gets into my room and the air in my room never goes outside. also to help with heat put your carbon filter and fan at the ceiling in the room then duct it to the floor.
