I'm not sure if I can recomend an author to you without breaking the forum rules....

Ed Rosenthal and Jorge Cervantes are my favorites along with Robert Connell Clarke.


Check the "growroom construction" forum for help with this....

Good luck

Scrubbers are typically mounted directly to the exhaust-fan flange.

If it's concept you're seeking, would be best to search the thread creep recommends. Airflow can be described like blowing through a straw. If your room is the straw, you need two holes to move air through it. An exhaust fan sucks air from one hole while the other open (passive) hole acts as intake.

Cool tubes use either single or dual/multiple fans. It just depends on your setup.

Describe you concept (room size, bulb size and amount) etc. Chances are somebody can link a similar setup. You'll need more understanding before you start cutting holes and mounting hardware.

For starters, a grow tent would be an easy task. All the vents are pre positioned and all you have to do is mount the scrubber to the fan and the fan to an exhaust port. Hang the light and that's it. From there you'll grasp the air concept, scrubbing, etc. You can even play with a cool tube or vented hood and recognize the varying ways to exhaust heat and scrub the smell.

A room sized grow may require additional air conditioning. That's more advanced and requires lots more knowledge from reading or hands on experience. The tent idea would give you a crash course pretty fast. Additional reading on larger setups would be wise.

Hmm this is wierd what do you mean without breaking forum rules. I was just wondering why my thread was deleted it was a veryyyy long paper very in depth in growing weed and it was written by ed rosenthal. Is there any way i can post the link without it being deleted?
 
ahh ok it is against forum rules to post a link to another site

Here are some ideas for light/scrubber and fan configurations.
These are just some of the many way you can set up a room. It's up to your imagination.
The scrubber is in red, the cool tube in green, the inline fan in blue, the circulation fan in magenta, the passive intake in cyan, and the duct in grey. Air movement is indicated by the blue arrows. Sorry about the colors in the attached images. Autocad's conversion to jpg sucks donkey balls.

Note, I show the inline fan outside the room. You could easily put the fan inside the room as long as it exhausts outside the room.

Keep bends to a minimum to prevent head loss in your ducting.

Use twice the passive intake area as the active exhaust.

Some say it's better to pull through carbon than to push.

Listen to Disco. He's the king.







The same principles apply whether a room, tent, cab or your underwear drawer.
