Ok so I have made some quick diagrams on Paint to show you guys how i am looking to vent my rooms, and i am wondering what would be better?
The first one shows 3 fans 1 in veg for exhaust with a passive intake and 2 in the flower, one to cool the reflector and the other for circulation.
The second image shows only 2 fans and I have one in veg for the same as i explained above and one in flower to cool the light and to circulate also running through a carbon filter. The fans are 500cfm centif. inline fans, the rooms are 4x4x7. I would make a passive intake with light trap at the bottom about .5 bigger than the fan in radius for intake. I have the c/f resting on the top of my rooms and connected to the turbine with ducting. Should the c/f be in my flower room or will it be effective as long as all the exhaust is pushed through it b4 the turbine?
questions are:
will the diagrams below work/make sense. Is it necessary to have three fans like in pic 2 or will 2 work? Or will i need booster fans at the bottom for intake and have active intake due to my room being 4x4x7 with 1000w hps?. I also have an ac unit that is 10,000 btu directly outside the front of my tents in a window. any suggestions on a way to inquire it..seems like it would complicate things to bring it in the mix but ideas would help.
So if my pix look good and I am ok with my idea to vent then my only question is how to make a light trap?
I was thinking of the metal ducting that is formed like a Z with one end to outside with a vent cover and the other end in my room like a Z painted black inside. I think they sell light traps dont they? any idea where?
Thanks again for all the help.....
