Ok I have been loking for a odor controlling solution... I dont want to spend alot on carbon filters with the c02 and shit that cost well over a hundred dollars what my question is to you is will a regular carbon air filter work ie: the one that looks like sheet of blackish greyish carpet kinda sorda. I been checking them out and and you can get a roll of that stuff for about 10 bucks and it says it eliminates all the odors and unwanted smells. Anyone out there want to put in their own 2 cents? thanks

Yeah I would think a purifier would help to a degree, but it would have to be a damn good one.

MyPhilosophy, I like how you transferred your thread to this one, pretty creative.

I wasnt getting any love from anyone else so i thought i would post it here bc it was relavent to the topic dont ya think so?

Yes it would be relevant but I would also like to ad that patience is a virtue when it comes to growing and forums, you can't expect people to answer your questions like right now, sometimes it takes a day or so, be patient and give it at least 24 hours.

ok but wat if u leave the closet door close...have that going in there ...think it would absorb most of the smell before it gets out the door? esp if i rig my growbox to the exhaust of the purifier?

i use the cheap $10 dollar carbon filters from home depot and they eliminate the odor just fine.
I usually use two sheets, just make sure that your supply/exhuast is strong enough to push the air. the carbon filters will constrict airflow.

They sure do. My room was beginning to stink big time a couple of weeks ago. Once I attached a carbon filter to it the smell disappeared.

The room still has a musty humid smell to it, but at least the obvious giveaway scent is gone

Do you need to by a special fan/exhaust for these filters, if yes can you get them at home depot as well?

 

[VictorVIcious]

it doesn't have to be any special fan just highenough cfm (cubic feet per minute) to move the air thru the filter. VV

Thats what im talking about their buddy. Thats what I needed to know i knew that the label had said that it would eliminate the odor but i wasnt too sure i wanted to hear it from the champ himself. I didnt want to buy the material and then be like oh man this sux i just wasted some money on this usless piece of poo. Well knowing this now it will save me mucho money bc i didnt want to buy a c02 can filter thing that was alot of money. I already have a nice compact fan (im talking state of the art small) that will clear a 100'x100' room out in 2 minutes so thats a reliever for me. Also those dark room vents can you place a sheet of that carbon air filter in that some how?
