NO MORE FANS?

I've come across a product called DiffuseAir by SystemAir, I'm not too sure if I can share a link so I won't, basically the label says it's designed to attach to rvk fans and circulate the air in your grow room dismissing the need for oscillating fans.

My thoughts? This is cool as shit. It claims to push air evenly between and under your canopy circulating the air. So not just taking away hot spots I could also direct my co2 exactly to where I want it. Anyway, please share your thoughts

They look cool for sure. But I can't imagine they move all that much air?

Besides I blow cold CO2 rich air in down low and remove heat from up high.

Mixing of hot and cold air would not be beneficial to me. I like to keep heat up high.

First it doeesn't move air it self they are like engineered fan blades that distribute air evenly. If your doing it in that set up they say placing it on your intake will push the fresh air more evenly throughout your room.

By the way I don't think you'd want that margin between hot air and cold air since it causes hot spots around your room. Me I'm running closed loop system so am trying to circulate my air as much as possible.

Wink

Six small fans (16") on the floor, aimed up, along the south wall. Two ceiling fans (32") blowing down along the north wall.
This rolls the room air from floor to ceiling and back down again, thoroughly mixing air through the canopy.
A pair of 2500 CFM fans blow air in, top and bottom of west wall, creating a vortex that flushes out the warm air through the passive vent on the east wall.
Power to the fans and size of vents is determined by outside temps, +85 in summer to -25 in winter.
Not a single oscillating fan in the room, air goes where it is needed all the time.

A product that does all this and can be purchased in a single package would be most wonderful.

Exactly my point. With less equipment and less electric hopefully

Neat concept!
I don’t see why it wouldn’t work as long as it works as described.

I’ve often mused at the thought of building a room within a room that moves air via upward laminar flow. It would take some overhead & floor height to build the plenum though so would need a tall room.

I'd think it would work in a 2m tall tent. Don't know about a 1.2m2 tent but should definatly work in a 2.4m2 placed right in the centre I think. Has no one had any experience with this product?

That probably is true stealth wise it might be a slight disadvantage. But ventilation wise wouldn't it be better since the air is moving more thorough and evenly?
