Just wanted to share. Just some 3/4 pvc and some elbows. No more sucking in walls and perfect to hang the netting off of. In order to get it to work I had to made it pretty tight to the point where the poles of the tent bow in just a bit, this way the tent can still zip pretty easily. This is my 3x3 but I built the same for my 4x4.

I'd rather have the negative pressure to ensure there are no smells

Active intake helps equalize it so that you don’t have the sides sucked in. You still have the negative pressure though if you do it right, that’s kind of what those holes on the bottom of the tents are for.

So you got no problem with the resistance and making your exhaust work harder than it has to. Thanks for sharing your solution though.
