Oh it’s essentially acting a s a “scrubber.” It is scrubbing the air in the tent clean while the AC is carrying out the air exchange duties. There is a positive pressure in my tent at the moment rather than negative.Interesting I don't think I have ever seen or noticed a carbon filter setup like that. I assume the
inline fan is pushing into the filter ? Any issues with it setup that way ? I may want to try that once
I set up my bigger tent and setup my co2.
I have not done my homework on the CO2 yet so still need to figure out how the carbon filter
will effect the CO2 concentration but I am sure I dont want it being pulled out
Unless you like wasting the precious co2 your trying so hard to include in the grow.I think you're going to want things sealed up when you're running co2
Good call Duggan, yeah I’ve always pulled through the filter.Gazoo...no....do not do that!!
These carbon filters are designed to have the air drawn thru them ...NOT 'pushed' thru.
Just think about the air filter in your car......the air gets 'drawn' thru...or 'sucked' thru.....not pushed.!!!
Your gonna want to set it up just as I have mine, in scrubber modeThanks
Duggan & Pennywise
OK that makes sense and actually that is kinda the way I have it set up now, EXHAUST Fan pulling
through HPS Hood and out but I did include a inline on the other end of the hood to push as well,
kinda thinking it would help ? Carbon filter at the start of the line with inline fan air being pulled through
it and exhaust fan on the back end of the hood pulling as well, very last item is the Exhaust fan pulling at the end
Yes I DO want a sealed tent with the CO2, thats why I noticed the Carbon filter and had a brain fart
with the direction
Only thing I am not sure about now is if a carbon filter should be use with CO2 in a sealed tent ?
