Dehumidifier advice
PenguHBstarted grow question 3 years ago
I am looking for an efficient, non-electric dehumidifier for the grow room. Do you think one of these would work? Can you recommend anything specific? Are they effective? About 30m3 total grow room volume.

That aint gonna do anything for you man, be useless after a few hours. Used them before in cars and house and they suck.
With a 30sqm grow room you need a proper big dehumidifier with a humidistat and a large reservoir - for the price you would pay over time buying 500 of them cheap shitters you would have a great dehu unit.
You arent dehu a normal room like those disposables are made for a snall space that isnt full of sweaty jungle conditions.

Fair enough friend. Then yeah I agree with Mrstinky. Get a good unit to dehumidify it’s going to be worth it in the long run.

Well it depends man. Donyou really need to dehumidify?
Typically people tend to have to add a humidifier.
Sure that product will suck out humidity but then you’ll have to re introduce humidity.
Honestly unless you’re running above 60% constantly I would not bother with dehumidifying the air.

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?

Do any body have any experience in making your own carbon filter?Thinking about making one from two steel mesh "ovals" with +-2cm in between. Use some filtration cloth so the carbon don't go through the mesh. And will fill the space between the meshes with activated carbon used for this purpose. Do you think its going to work? ThanksSetup.
