I'm not sure about the carbon sheets, but a year or two ago I seen someone make a carbon filter for a pc fan out of a soda can. I can try to find the link if your interested.

hey man,

im not sure how they run things there in europe but i was low on $$$ so i went to youtube.com and watched a Do it yourself video on how to make a carbon filter.
the entire project for the filter costed me less then $15 u.s.d. which is like 10 euro lol.
i used a hepa filter replacement for the carbon paper. made a frame from a thin mailable metal like chicken wire

check it out! they are cheap.

happy gardening,

TeXas

ebay ftw!!!!

hepa filter is just kinda like a brand. any carbon based filter replacement sheet will work as long as you stitch it right!

nah it's not a brand.

HEPA stands for High Efficiency Particulate Air. They were invented for the manhattan project. They catch particles as small as 3 microns.
