Quick little DIY video of my Carbon filter

Check it out.

Cost me about $30 at Home Depot, $10 at another hardware store(prefilter) and $15 on Amazon for the carbon.

Pretty simple, and seems like it's going to do the trick.

$16 of activated carbon and $40 of parts ( according to your honesty). 1 hour to do (according to you) so we will say @ 15/ hour. So total cost no filter$71?

And for $100 you can get ducting, a fan, and pro filter with free shipping?

CAD for the DIY and USD for the linked setup. Good luck finding a supplier in Canada for anything under $200.

If you are close to the border you could buy that iPower setup and ship to a border store but add 30% conversion and minimum 8% tax.

Not only that but the DIY is ready to swap carbon. I know the bought ones you can do that with a little effort but this one you just roll back the nylon, unscrew the clamp and pop off the end cap.
