Ok i have seached high and low still nothing (specific).

Ok my friend has A 400 HID. Whats the proper fan with the proper CMF rating to use.

I discovered the inline duct fans over at htgsupply i was thinking of getting those. But it states its not compadable with carbon filter ?? (wtf):wall::-(

So do they mean its not compadable with there spicifc carbonfilter or are they just not compadable with any. Im having trouble finding out if the have enough fource to push (air) threw a CF.

plz plz plz help me RIU.

-1gne peace

I use a 4 inch Vortex inline fan rated at 171 CFM for a single 400w HPS. If you get a bigger fan then all the better because it will only increase air flow and cool the lights more, two really good things. And i like to position the

inline fan to 'suck' the air from the light reflector, rather then 'push' air through. I have tried both ways and having the air 'sucked' out is way more efficient. Have a seperate inline for your carbon filter, not connected to the

light ducting.

aw ok i see. Well i meant that i was going to suck the hot air from the light then scrub via the same line.
But yu sugest i use two diff ones. It makes since but may i ask why??
Also i still wondering what enough cfm to suck air threw a carbon filter.

And ok Im guessing the carbon filter should be in the same room as the ladies. Am i correct ??
Ive seen opps that had the filter in the room with a fan on top or bottom. Is this the most efficient way ??
