Im just looking to confirm a few theory as to how i could cool my lights with the equipment i have. i have a can 100 filter and a 10 inch max can fan and i was hoping to stand the filter up vertically connect a flange to it 12inch since thats the ducting size i have (long story fvcking craigslist) run the ducting to my 8 inch air cooled hood via a reducer and place the fan on the other side of the hood in order to suck air through the light and hood and exhaust it outside of the room ? so i guess im seeking to pull air from the room scrub it have it cool my lights then exhaust the hot air? im new at this so details as to how i hook up exhaust parts needed ect ect would be great and thanks in advance
you can put the carbon filter anywhere insode the grow sucking in or on tje outsode blowing air through it i have mine on the outside when i need it if i dont need it then i dont use it as it restricts air movement
pulling air is most effective...placing filter at the top of the room gets rid of hot smelly air.....puting it on the ground does not. what your talking about is what i do.....filter>duct>hood>duct>fan>out
