Alright RIU....
I could really use some help with this ventilation system. I've managed to work up multiple visual aids to help with creativity. Please feel free to submit ideas. I am feeling very overwhelmed. I would like to draw in fresh air, cool my lights, clean my stinky air, and exhaust. What I had thought of was bringing in fresh air from the gable vent, and exhausting on the opposite side of the room on top of my vaulted ceilings. Here are some pictures to get the idea. Please help me to design a streamline system that takes care of all these needs. I do have my own ideas, I'm just curious if anyone sees any potential beyond what I'm seeing.
Here's the link to the video...
A couple of diagrams to start.
A couple of pictures..
Those are the outside wall
This is the inside wall to the house...
The room is divided by the center studs. I've sheet rocked in order to make two rooms. I was thinking of making a horseshoe type wrap with my ducting from the gable vent, to cool my lights,but how can I include my carbon filter, and hopefully exhaust all air up above the vaulted ceilings of the inside wall of the house.
My
first video in this thread shows the opening above the house. My house has vaulted ceilings in most of it. You can kind of see how much space is up there at :55 seconds of the first video, that's where I would like my cleaned/hot air to go, but it is not required.
I was thinking of running this off of the gable vent to each side of the room to vent lights, and then exhaust on the opposite side of the vent above the vaulted ceiling. But my main questions is how can I work in my carbon filter, so that I can be doing all the work at once...
Let me know your ideas.
