DIY Carbon filter and new cab set up!
So today I finally finished making my own carbon scrubber...
I took the plans from the link posted and modified it a bit.
I used a paint can lid (new and never used for paint) for the end cap
36" aluminum window screening for the tube part
I attached a bend elbow to the fan (I bought a duct fan, the ones used to "boost" air flow in ducting. that was accomidate for the space I had to put my scrubber thing to the vent supplied in the plastic tool shed I'm using for my new grow cab.
I wrapped the screen tube with the sheet of carbon filter (about three passes I think.) I used the velcro included with the filter.
I also have wrapped used laundry filter sheets as a "pre-filter". And the outlet part also pushes the air past another piece of carbon filter with a new laundry sheet taped over the outflow...
About four hours later and the cab temp. is about 78 f. It will drop off at night as the cement floor cools.
Hubby says smell is much better. Will let you know....
