co2 AND odor control

I am dedicating a 10' x 12' room in the basement for my flowering room and was wondering how I could go about using co2 while still having a negative air pressure room. I would think having a fan venting to the outside I would loose all my co2 quick like. Then if I had a carbon scrubber recirculating air in the room I would still have the smell push out of the door whenever I opened the door. One option I thought of is having a switch outside the door to turn on the outside vent before I walk in the room then off again. Anyone have any other suggestions? I want to utilize co2 if it is able to increase my yields by 20% or more but still don't want any smell detectable in my house.... thanks for any help on this setup dilemma!

You have already solved your problem. You will have to have air pumping out of the room when you open the door or you know what happens.

The switch is the perfect solution, you can also use it for other emergencies once its set up. (For example a 105 degree day or something.)

That sounds like a great idea. I would like to have a carbon filter/scrubber running continuously in the room so I guess I will need 2 fans... one for the filter and one pushing that air out of the room when needed. I will have to work on this.... anyone have the same setup?
