So I’ve just got a new tent for a flower room as I’m still setting up my flower room I’ve got a 2 by 2 by 2 meter sqaure tent and I’m unsure of fan and filter size I’ll have a 600watt and a dimible 600watt hps In there so I’ll have a bit of heat also opinions guys what do you think???

6" or an 8".

You can use an 8" filter with a 6" fan. But not a 6" filter with an 8". Whatever the square footage the filter manufacturer says. Add 200cfm to it. Even after adding up duct elbows, length of duct.

The box stores sell a 6" to 8" adapter.

Fan pulls through the filter. A larger filter means less work for the fan AND the filter will last for more grows.

Don't cheap out on the fan! There are reasons most of us run pretty expensive exhaust fans. I went through 2 cheap ones before I got smart.
