Hey all! Run down>> 4x4 tent 600hps - 6" cooltube 4" vortex w/ 4" carbon filter 2 6" osc fans etc speed control -- but its on full setup>> exhuast-- filter> ducting > cool tube > ducting > fan > ducting > window 1 6" osc fan in the corner moving air 1 6" fan pointing at the cooltube intake -- passive 4" ducting from window flaps at bottom open temps are at 85 RH drops to 30-40 ----------------------- now im still vegging for the most part so im using cfls/t12s temps 76 RH 50 ----------------------- Now, the question. Should I add a 6" inline duct fan(plastic blades $40) JUST for the light (with sep ducting, pulls air from out of tent and vents out of tent) keeping my 4" vortex to scrub and pull air out ORRRR Scrap the 4" vortex and just get a 6" vortex to do the whole job? Would a 6" vortex have enough power to pull/scrub/ and keep those temps down? Any advice/input welcomed and appreciated! thanks ahead of time Jet EDIT: im pretty sure im going to go with a 6" vortex or CAP (ebay).. but not sure if im goign to keep the 4" as well.. anywho, any thoughts
I would go with the 6" Vortex or CAP valueline. Check the link below, that's the cheapest place I've found for fans. If you keep the 4" vortex you can always use one for just cooling the light and the other for your Carbon filter. 6" Valueline - Valueline 6 Inch 435 CFM Centrifugal Inline Fan - Plantlighting Hydroponics 6" Vortex - Vortex 6 inch 449 CFM High Power Inline Fan - Plantlighting Hydroponics
