"The Fresh Maker" is a triple layer, high capacity, single pass charcoal filter.

These filters are efficient, durable and light-weight. They feature an inverted hose cone and vertical pleats for maximum filtered surface area.

Attach directly to your fan.

The Deau Passe Organic Air Charcoal Fiber is a line of super efficient, high capacity filters designed to remove particulate matter as well as odors and gases from air.

The Deau Passe line uses charcoal fiber filter elements that pack within the tiny pores on the surface, an amazing capacity to trap gases, particles and organisms.

Made from small-pore activated carbon, the charcoal fiber lays out a flattened surface area the size of a regular football field for every one gram of the material.

This filtering action is supplemented by the filter design with circumferential and vertical pleats in combination with the inverted nose cone that offers the largest fiber surface area of activated carbon you can get on the market.

The Organic Air Fresh Maker Filter by Deau Passe® will enable single pass filtration of strong odors at very high CFM's.

Freshmaker filters consist of three layers of highly active charcoal fiber with millions and millions of active micropores that attract and capture odors.

The filter is easily washed to keep the micro-pores clean and ready to absorb more odors.

They can be used with fans from 0-5000 CFM.

The highest rated filters with the largest surface area on the market, and at less than 1/2 the size of old traditional filters!

Filter Applications

Multi-layer, Single pass charcoal fiber filter, the ''Freshmaker'' line is designed for single pass filtration of strong odors. These filters enable air to be pushed and pulled through them. Typical applications include front or end of any exhaust line.

bump .... anyone?

Thanks for the useful "inside" info on this filter cidburn. Tamerlane, I'm looking at this filter as well. Saw them at the local shop,
and was recommended by the owner(whose opinion I value). The fact that as long as you keep it clean, it works for years, makes it not just
useful, but thrifty. I'll more than likely pick one up next month. If you get one first, I'd love another "inside" POV.

All the Best,

I have one of the 6" filters. Doesn't work all that well to be honest. I still needed to utilize Ona gel to cover up semi-stanky plants. I wish I didn't waste my money on it, and I'll never buy another one or recommend it to a person.

Get a real Carbon Filter and don't skimp.

Snow Crash, thanks for the information, thats what I've been seeing on IC also but then I wonder if people are buying the pre-cleaner and trying to use that. The Company is really stupid on their naming of the product, its very hard to figure out just what your buying, the pre filter and the carbon filter should be named entirely different as it is super confusing. Your comment is right in there with some on IC. There are also growers like "Cidbum" above who is happy with his purchase. I've written to the company even and complained about the naming of the product and said that I would buy if they had a money back guarantee, no answer.

I used to post as 2Lazy over at ICMag, but wound up having a terrible time there. I am fully convinced there is a group of growers there that espouse TERRIBLE information that winds up screwing growers so that they can sell their shit to people with failed grows.

Of all the places, ICMag is the least noob friendly, but even for myself it was a terrible experience. So terrible in fact that I deleted my account there. You can search me up any time and see why.

I've been banned at GrassCity like 4 times now. Once as 2Lazy, Once as Snow Crash, and again as 2LSC (the initials of the two). I can't figure out why, just the moderators have issues.

This place is a better community, better feel, but there are a lot of bad growers here. The sick plant forum is so sad. It takes people a week, and dozens of posts to get the right.

Glad I could be of assistance.

Snow, Thanks, I was about to get one until I saw there was a "scrubber" and filter... If anything, i it may work as a
supplement, but I wouldn't trust a grow to it. Thanks again for user input.
