I can report that the DIY filters, the plans of which can be found here and elsewhere,
are very effective. I am in a zero tolerance of smell situation, and nothing has gotten
out of the man-cave.
Good luck,
JD
P.S. FWIW, I used this build. If there is a tech here, then perhaps someone can post it.

I have seen those, and they are quite fine indeed.
Sadly, I am a tad ghetto by necessity, though I like
my tent setup very much.
The really good news is that the smell issue can be
handled. I was mainly concerned about this when
I considered jumping into this hobby.
Take care,
JD

Phresh is good, keeps me smelling nice all day long, nite too 
bag it when it's not in use or during veg and it will last a long, long time.
I mark on the bag when I open and close her up to extend the life.

What do you mean by bag it??

When your carbon arrives, it should be in a sealed plastic bag. BTW check for tears or punctions and send it back if you find any. You only need the filter for flowering. When you first build your room you will need to remove the bag to mount it properly and check for fit. Then just pop it back off and throw it back in the bag. Seal it tight and check for leaks. If you take care of it, it will perform well for many years. Well worth the investment and higher cost for Phresh brand filters in my opinion. Odor was my #1 concern above everything else.
My house and attic have absolutely no odor. I close my office doors from the rest of the house and open the office grow closet 2 X 3 X 10. Bam, the smell from the grow fills the office room about 10 X 10 in just a few minutes. It's amazing how well the carbon scrubbers work. Once I seal the closet shut again it will take about 30-45 minutes for the office to clear the smell! And that's with the intake being in my office! I have to light candles, air freshners, odor gels to get my office back to normal. Anyway, that's what I go through.

Thanks for the clarification, I may have to use the filter before flowering, possibly not, at least I hope not but I can already start to smell a bit of the smell when i'm near the plants and they are still only a few inches tall.
That does sound great though, thanks for the advice, my room is a bit larger, 14 x 22 but I can only imagine the smell permeating it. luckily ill be able to open the grow at night.
