Just after a bit of advice if anyone has any knowledge to share i have upgraded my extraction and have been looking for a decent filter to match im stuck between rhino pro mountain air and Phresh filter
the price is not an issue i just want the best quality and longest lasting filter
my extractor is a 10 inch mdf boxed tornado extractor but will be run on a dimmer also there is 10 meters of insulated ducting between the fan an filter so will be losing a bit of power and with it being run on a dimmer also wont be full 3250 being used

Phresh Filter 10 inch 250x600 2500m3 £150
Phresh Filter 10 inch 250x1000 3800m3 180

Rhino Pro 12 inch 315x600 2440m3 £170

have you ever run 10m of ducting with a filter on the end?

i would imagine it would destroy the motor on your fan running it at half power with that much load on it, even if there were no bends on the ducting it is far from ideal to have that much distance between fan and filter.

the rhino 315x1000 would be the best filter option if space and weight isn't an issue so much.

what lights are you cooling?

its 5 x 600 w hps lights and yes i know about the power loss with a good lenght of duct but my space for grow area is only small and the extractor i brought was more than enough power for the area i have a 2mx2mx2m tent with 4x600 watt hps and a 1x1x2 m tent attatched

also all lights are on open reflectors i used to have 2x5 inch extractors and filters with a 6 inch bringing cool air in from out side last summer my temps were outrageous going over 100 on some days winter times i have no problems with the old setup but after moving my setup into a new place i could hear the sound of it from outside front door so decided to upgrade for something with more power but less noise i have rung around lots of stores and have been told that mountain air are better than rhino also phresh filters are better than rhino but it seems all the stores that try and say something is better than something else is because they dont stock the one they are putting down so don't feel very reassured being told rhino aint as good as mountain air because i feel that if the shop only sold rhino then they would be saying rhino is the best lol
