I had the same issue in a closet grow. I placed a 16" fan inside the rear of the closet, setting it at a downwards angle towards the gap of the door and the floor. You may be able to find a "sweet spot" by feeling how much air is coming out of the closet with the fan in different positions. I also tried the opposite by placing the 16" fan outside the closet to blow air in through the gap. Seemed to work better using it inside. You might also try using 2-6" fans one inside and one outside on opposite sides of the gap. Dropped my temps by a few degrees while also providing the much needed circulation.

well I didn't even think about co2.. do they make cheap sensors? Good thing is its right beside my front door so if I open both doors air goes straight in from outside.. the prob is that 8 hour stretch I might not be here.. i could leave the door open at that time.. onlyrhing I really have to hide is the sunlight look coming from the cracks of my closet when people are over lol

Maybe make some bottom of the door ducting, hook some ducting to a fan and suck some fresh air from the bottom of the door. Cheers

Then if you have to leave the door open then that's what you will have to do. A closed door with no ventilation isnt good. Even if you can keep heat down they will run out of c02 very quickly. Your plants will suffocate amslow death. Cheers

Would getting a online filter and setting in in the ceiling be worth it? Its not venting out but at least it would clean the air right? Any ideas are welcome

How crucial is an exhaust fan and a carbon filter?I cant find anything in my country as a kit, but would buying them piece by piece work?
Example something like in the photo connected to an air duct and then to a carbon filter?
Or if the exhaust fan is not crucial? how can i get rid of the smell in a cheaper way?

Brauche ich unbedingt einen (Schwenk-) Lüfter in meiner Growbox?Habt ihr schon mal ohne (Schwenk-) Ventilator in der Growbox angebaut? Wenn ja, welche Erfahrung habt ihr dabei gemacht? Ich möchte nur ungern einen Ventilator einsetzen, weil das vermutlich die Lautstärke der Box deutlich erhöht. Schon mal vielen Dank für eure Erfahrungen.

Do you think this is a better position for carbon filter so it can have better airflow or is it more important to scrub air from the top and have 2 90 degree bends?
I'll probably try this in my next grow.
Pic with drying plants is setup from before with 2 90 degree bends.

Using humidistat to control fan, will this cause problems? So far fan running for 30 secs every two minutes! Plz advise if this is not a good idea??My exhaust fan is to powerful no speed control just two settings. On the lowest setting the fan is still sucking all the humidity that my humidifier creates out of the tent. So I have bought a humidity controller hooked it up with the humidifier and fan.. It’s working great!!Setup. Ventilation
