Yes, I actually run this setup as you can run your fan at lower setting which mean less noise and also saves energy and will allow the fan to last a lot longer since its not running at full power. I strongly recommend this. I got a 6in and I'm running on low setting and its doing an amazing job, my tent is a 3*3

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?

I bought a Secret Jardin MO20 oscillating fan, and I highly regret it because I have read several reviews mentioning that it can catch fire. Is there any other good alternative for circulating air?

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.

Can I close the door of my closet?My tent is located in a closet kind of room (5x2 meters) and I was wondering if could close the door during the night because the fan is a bit noisy. Will it fill the room with exhaust air/humidity and damage everything inside (the plant, also the clothes that are in the room)?Week 5

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.
