After looking at what a temp controller is the main difference between that and the speed controller is the temp controller has a thermostat and auto shutoff-on capabilities. With a negative pressure room for smell you would never want to turn off your exhaust or intake fans.
More advanced temp controllers look like they also control the devices that control humidity, Co2 if one uses it among other environmental factors. No need for that unless your planning on spending a lot more money.
Well whether you need to run a/c or central air or not is a separate factor. A lot will depend on where you can exhaust the exhaust. Mine runs up my gas fireplace roof exhaust and out, before i just ran it into a larger room and temps were a little harder to control then.
I only trust products I have used. CAP fans and Can filters have good history.
With your size of room a 6" would need to run at full strength or more for two 1000s. And 8" is only 20-30 or so more, will move 700+ CFM instead of the maybe 500 CFM a 6" would do and it will be quieter as most larger diameter fans don't need to run at such high RPMs therefore less noise, not always true but mostly.
I buy nothing but Can carbon filters and CAP and MaxFan inline fans, MaxFan is actually a branch of Can Filters. CAP fans are more affordable, just as quiet and have 5 year warranties. They are a bit heavier but nothing is more heavy then the carbon filter and it's fairly easy to hang a carbon filter with a bungee or the heavy duty lock hangers so a CAP fan wouldn't be much of a struggle to hang. The trick there is lining them up right so the ducting running from the carbon to the fan is as straight as possible. Use gorilla tape. The only thing you will need to screw in with a drill are the tap screws to connect the 6 or 8" flange to the carbon filter and the ceiling mount for the CAP fan, in which case if screwing into wood 2x4s which is what I use to hang stuff from use regular drywall screws.
I wouldn't worry about veg smelling either, but I have a carbon filter setup for that to because I'm anal.
There you go, a cheaper 8". Not sure of the quality or loudness, or amp rating, but it also has a 5 year warranty.
Yes. Carbon filters usually come with a flange, or you have to buy it separately but that is only 5-10 dollars. They come in all sizes so all you do is screw the flange to the carbon filter and you'll have the exact diameter you need to connect it to your fan, or ducting in this case being it goes CARBOn FILTER--Ducting--Fan Ducting>>>>>out
