New Grower Fans/Filters

[Joe420]

Hey Guys..planning out a grow room. I have a closet thats 4'x4'x7'..and I have access to the attic space above.

Running a 400w HPS light..and prob will add a few vertical T5's on the walls.

Going to start with 4 plants. Thinking about going with 3.5 gal DWC buckets, the black widow spiders ones.

My main question at this point is Ventilation and Carbin Filters...

What type of fans/filters would I need for this space?

 

[Magic]

4-6inch carbon/fan. Id go 6 if you are trying to keep temps down and run it thru your light also.

ok soo i need one of these?
6" 1050+ IAV Australia Charcoal Filter
6" 440 CFM Ducting Inline Fan
6" by 8' Long Aluminum Ducting with Pair of Clamps

DO i mount this in the ceiling or am i mounting this and running the duct to the ceiling??

 

[Joe420]

I think I get it...

You have the Carbin filter..duct to the light n thur..to the mounted fan..and then duct up to the ceiling.

does this pull in fresh air too...or do i need another fan for that?

plus ill need fans on the floor to for circulation n heat..?..

It would go carbon filter-duct-light hood-duct-fan-duct out of grow space. They make wall mounted oscillating fans that work fantastic and allow you to keep your floor space like this one http://www.htgsupply.com/Product-16-Inch-Wall-Mount-Oscillating-Fan

Just make sure you have room for one before you buy one, as in it won't get in the way of the hoods etc.

If you live in a cold area ducting into the attic space can be bad juju because it can cause a lot of condensation which leads to mold. If possible I'd install a roof flashing and use some furnace vent/cap/storm collar to duct it outside of the roof to avoid damage to the structure and dangerous molds from growing. Mold is really bad for you to breathe in.
