Of course...looking more closely.....

This unit is really pretty cheap, it gets 4.5 stars, and, having three
speeds, I can hope that the slowest is fairly quiet.

I used one of these back around 2004 because it has ion + hepa filter. I don't remember it being all that loud and it help with smell and air flow but wasn't quite effective for all the smell I had going on back then. Cheers

Right. Thank you very much for taking the time. :0)

That is very useful info for me. My need is specific, and quiet is
probably the best news. I will be using it (not purchased yet...I am
going to find my new job before I drop the dough) only to ensure
that the males tent maintains a negative air pressure. This will
keep any pollen in the tent.

I will duct it to the tent to draw air out....that air needs to be cleaned
but it does not have to amount to that much flow.

Now, lower air flow can lead to heat issues, but I plan to use only
one Kessil 350.

Thanks again,

JD

That should do it JD, as long as you're not counting on those HEPA filters to remove smell, been there done that and they don't cut it but as a pollen filter it should work fine with some DIY duct work.

It's a smaller version of my 5x9. I can tell you the difference in materials and craftsmanship is there bro. And the smoothness of the zippers etc. And being able to add height is spot on. I highly recommend these Gorilla tents. I bitched with what it cost but those worries went away when I opened the box.
The best part of my gorilla tent was the extension...saved my ass when the cali-o showed her sativa pheno. I now have two. My little 2x2.5 is the lite line.

9th day hanging plants and getting close to dry.
High humidity and rain made the dry longer and should be nice smoke.
The SLH I was re-vegging already died, and the Special Edward is burned.
They needed less light I guess.
Move the SE to the garage with 24/7 light that is dim and hope she revovers rom the stress.

Tried samples of both and and the SLH is decent, and the SE is pretty nice with some flavors already and a happy high that I need.
Ill be able to give a better detail after a few weeks curing if I can wait.
I got bored of the Clementine and Blue dream long ago.
New strains are so much fun!!

Hey, dropping this here for memory:

Tech Tip #2: Equivalent Lengths
Proper airflow distribution is critical to the performance of residential forced air heating and cooling systems. Sheet metal pipe, duct, and all the connecting fittings are produced in many sizes and styles to enable the contractor to make the proper installation in all types of residences.

What is “Equivalent Length”?
Each type, style, and configuration of fittings (elbow, angle, takeoff, reducer, diffuser outlet, register boot, etc.) is listed in ACCA’s Manual Dwith an assigned “equivalent length.” This value is the comparison “length” of this fitting to an equivalent length of straight pipe or duct. For example, each elbow used is equivalent to 30 feet of straight pipe or duct.

Southwark Metal Mfg’s sheet metal pipe, ductwork, and fittings conform to this system of equivalent lengths as well as conforming to industry national standards for describing residential fittings.



Why are Equivalent Lengths Important?
Equivalent lengths become important to the HVAC system designer who is looking to ensure proper airflow distribution with the “Equal Friction Method” of duct sizing. The sum of all equivalent lengths of fittings used and the measured distances of all pipe and duct from room terminal to the air handler should be calculated for each conditioned room. The two largest values, i.e. the longest supply and the longest return runs, are added together to create a total called “the critical path.”

[Available Static Pressure (ASP) x 100] divided by [Critical Path (in feet)] = Design Factor

The design factor, calculated from the above formula, and the required airflow (CFM) are then used in a duct calculator to determine the size of all supply and return duct.

In spite of beingpart of the end of this last season's Mite Battle, the
Veg Area is starting to look happier:
IMG_5638.JPG

Those are "Dr Who" #3 and #5 in the right foreground.

(BSB/CB X WR ) X Dr Who to be exact.

Three of mine, popped upon arrival and perhaps a week too early, will be flowered.

You can see that a few show scars, but all of the new growth is clean and green.

I took the first new clone, of a new Cali Connection Strawberry OG which is a fem and
so will be flowered next. I also took a ton of Qrazy Train clones, as that one fights cloning
and that mother needs to flower bad!

Take care,

JD
