Just built my indoor grow room and realized my heater has its big ol' air intake in one wall of my grow room and it can not be moved. I am wondering if there are any filters that are recommended. Thanks

well,if your return air register is in a grow room...than the entire house will have no return air?

If more than 1 CAR, cover said CAR vent in the grow room. If not, all the grow smell will be vented I to your entire house.


Mmmmm Marijuana smell while eating thanksgiving dinner. That might not go over so well with the inlaws. Lol

can make a sorts of box to but around your inlet on the furnace and connect it to this flex stuff so it will suck out side your room . you can use wood or very easy .Styrofoam make a box that hooks to the heater . or do it right get the actual connecter tubing . its easy . hope you get what I am saying .

Big carbon filter. I had one tied to a big hvac squirrel cage fan. It's the biggest Phresh Filter I think it's 1500cfm. Use sheet metal to make a box around the intake and seal it all up with that shiny glue tape the hvac guys use. Punch a hole in the box, duct it to the filter.

Unless you think you won't need odor control, then bryan oconner's bypass suggestion is what I would do.

dude just move the intake.... if we can move a house I'm sure you can move the dam vent... you do realize someone put that there right? its just galveee and screws. unscrew the thing and turn it facing out the room. you don't even have to do much work....
