Hello fellow growers
I now need to know which fans to buy. The flowering room is a triangle shape ruffly 3m x 3m x3m and 1.2m deep. The 600w is going to be inside of a blockbuster hood and there will be under 10m of ducting in total (Mostly straight on outsides of tent).
I plan to run a 4" intake fan aswell as 6" exhaust, all through acoustic ducting and with the dual fan speed controller. This is a loft grow with the intake taken from the 4" bathroom ceiling fan (ceiling fan is not the intake fan, this is for stealth reasons only).
I need this setup to be quiet. Which intake and exhaust fans do I need? The loft has been treated with double foil thermawrap, and my grow tent for flowering is constructed from the same material.
Carbon filter/Blockbuster/ 6" Exhaust............4" Intake.
Reading your FAQ suggests that I should allow 330cfm3 for the 600w. I have however looked at the 550cfm3 iso box fan for exhaust and then wondering about the intake fan. Is the 550cfm3 a good idea to use along side a 4" intake or what would you suggest ?
I don't want to spend more than I need, but I need it to be quiet and I need adequate cooling during summer.
The thermawrap bubble foil insulation is in place under the rafters (overlapped and taped sealed)to deflect heat from the sun in summer, to keep temps up in winter, and to disguise the grow from Infrared cameras. If this extra info helps.
I plan to diffuse the heat within the loft space during winter, and to vent outside during summer.
Thanks.
