Come up against an obstacle setting the room up, having the intake fan running will be too noisy by far an will keep my daughter awake so does anyone know if a 4" passive intake about 6ft off the ground will be any good? Will be running a 6" fan filter n cooltube on exhaust fan

yeah thats the problem lol, the ONLY thing i can use for a passive intake is a 42 hole 6ft off the floor, might just use it with a length of ducting on n let the pressure pull the air thru the ducting


will get some pics up in a sec so you lot can see what i mean

warm air rises and cold air drops so it would be ok, you would need to have a small 10inch fan or 2 pushing the air up from below the plants though.

and at 6ft i would think the filter would pull it straight out before it could drop.... could you not run ducting from the 6ft high hole and down to the floor were you can attach the intake fan to pull the air through......

you can box the fan as well to make it silent as below.....

IMAG0803_cleaned.jpg Well this is the cupboard, intake is the hole in the back wall above the cooltube, thinking of attaching a length of ducting and running it down the back left hand corner of the room where the fan currently is to about 2ft off the floor and hoping the pressure pulls the air thru n down the ducting

Behind the left n back walls is my daughters bedroom so thats a no go, only place I could do it is on the right hand side wall that goes into our bedroom but thats even more time n expense i cant afford
