do carbon filters need to be exhausted, or can they be placed in the grow room with a intake fan?
quick question on carbon filters
- Thread starter diagnosedashigh
- Start date
Meaning, can you scrub the air? If so, yes.

does it work well for smell and does it help heat at all?
No doesn't help heat. That is if you're scrubbing. Venting is a different story, I like scrubbing better.
Helps smell tremendously!!!! Get the right size for the task at hand and they can damn near eliminate the smell except for when you handle them of course.
Even then, the proper size unit will eliminate the smell within mins./sec.

rep+ thanks, ill be making a homemade do you know if they are still good compared to the real ones?
Well some claim to have a better design than some. Like Phat Filter. But IDK.
As long as a majority (100% is optimal of course) of your air is traveling through the carbon you should be okay. Use enough carbon for sure. I'm not sure how much you need.
I try to get double the the recommended carbon weight just to feel secure.
Some filters also claim to last twice as long as other and all that hype. May be true maybe not.
