Quick question.. Is carbon-filtered air safe to breath? Specifically, could a carbon-filtered exhaust tube just dump air into a room or attic, or is it necessary that it be run outside? I'm trying to keep as stealth as possible, and I'd prefer to not have duct ports in my window.

If it is unsafe, could somebody hook me up with a DIY link for a window insert that the intake exhaust tubes will run to that's relatively discreet?

Thanks in advance.:joint:

hmm i dont think carbon exhausted air is harmful ive seen mixing carbon in water purifies to an extent so you should be safe i guess as long as you dont see dust being expelled

Yeah, that's what I'm worried about. I know coal miners get black lung from carbon dust, and that's no good. My lungs take a beating as it is. :blsmoke:

So no carbon is released into the air? That's basically what I'm asking. I'd like to at least live long enough to smoke these wonderful budz.

well im trying to say that the carbon filters the air. if the carbon were to get in the room it would probably end up killing you in 2-3 days, of course thats staying in the room for over 5 hours a day. carbon filters are highly dangerous if they aren't working perfectly. they are also one of the top sources of global warming

um, wtf? we eat activated charcoal to cure things such as gastrointestinal things, wtf? kill? where the fuck are you getting your info?
. However, the use of internally taken activated charcoal is not recommended for cleaning the lungs; in fact, breathing the dust of activated charcoal can cause infection of the lungs. The only way to clean the lungs with activated charcoal is by using the charcoal to keep the air around you clean. By breathing in clean air, you will keep from adding pollution to your lungs, and with time the body will rid itself of some of the accumulated pollution in the lungs. The ability of activated charcoal to clean the lungs is with activated charcoal filters in air purifiers and masks. Commonly known as HEPA filters, these filters are able to filter out particles as small as 0.3 microns.
