I have a grow room mylar with the following dimensions: 110 cm long x 65 cm width x 120 cm high, 3 openings: 2 of 120 mm and 1 expandable up to 160 mm.
Seeing that silence and odour are 2 key factors, I'm opting for a silent box. However, being relatively new to this game, I still have some questions:
What are the main differences between metal and wood (MDF) boxes?
What size of box should I use? The 2 smaller ones are 250m3 and 500m3
What are the advantages/disadvantages of of each?
Are there filter box models with dimmers? How do I get it to work at different speeds?
What size of filter should I use? 200m3, 250m3 or 300m3? Any brand that you would recommend? I'm looking at Carbon Active and Rhino, and looking for smallest but effective.
What is the relation between the size of the extractor and the size of the filter?
What is the added benefit of using those “socks” on top of the filter, do the filter lasts longer?
What kind of tubbing to use? Any brand names you can recommend and available in 125mm diam?
Seeing the small space available, is there a point to use a silencer? How about a muffler?
As you can see, I have some rather specific questions after doing my homework. I would very much appreciate input from folks with more XP on this, and who can provide a tip or 2.
Thanks!
