Nope on the carbon filter and Yes on keeping the cab cool.... I use a 4 incher like that to circulate air in my mom cab and I have 6 incher cooling 2 600 watters which I have to change soon due to weather changes.

However as soon as those inline duct fans meet any resistance they stink. You can put your hand near it, not over it and hear it struggle.

Good for circulation, bad for odor and carbon scrubbers, they just can't handle any resistance.

PS. Fans of any type do better pulling air then pushing it.
