Grow Room: ventilation ok? *diagram

Hi all, thanks in advance. I am hoping to find out any thought you might have about this closed ventilation system. I want to create a stable environment with clean air. Would it be practical to run a sealed climate system running a carbon filter directly to an a/c unit? The idea is to keep a consistent level of CO2 [1000 to 1100 ppm], without any intake or exhaust from/to outside. This would hopefully eliminate wasted CO2 to the outdoors. Good days

It is going to have to be set up really well, filtration and cleanliness wil be an ultra high priority because the chances of getting a fungus amongus in a sealed environment is easily accomplished.
The ability to humidify and dehumidify will be a challenge as well. It is very doable for sure, if you do your homework and have a system to monitor the area constantly. Downfall of a sealed environment is, if something goes wrong, it is usually very quick to be catastrophic to the crop.

Agreed , a good HEPA filter (Hospital or pharmasudical grade ) not cheep , No Dehumidfier/ whole house humidifier with humida Stat (aprilair products) but really would consider making it a on a 100% fresh air exchange once every 24hr period

Thanks for the great ideas, cleaning the air throughout the room a couple of times a day will be no problem. The hope is to run CO2 to A/C, then out through the window, with 'fresh air' from the house to avoid bugs from outside. I want to keep consistent CO2 in the room rather than flushing it all day. You think a carbon filter will suffice with plenty of air movement and regular doses of fresh air?

Yeah it's a vert ScrOG BUDS, with limited plants the hope is that all the light will be used. It's gotta be a windy room to keep the air flow up and avoid overheating.
Thanks again!
