How to Install Inline Duct Fan in Grow Tent?

A cannabis grow tent is an invaluable asset you may require as a cannabis farmer since it helps to create an environment that gives you control over the planting conditions. A grow room cannot work without is a ventilation system to control its internal atmosphere. An exhaust system is responsible for the circulation of air inside and outside the grow room creating conditions that will enable the cannabis plants to thrive. It helps to regulate the temperature, humidity, and carbon dioxide, which affect photosynthesis that the plants require to grow.

Selecting a Grow Tent

The key to choosing the optimal grow tent size for your operation is going to depend completely on what you’d like to grow. The size of your marijuana grow tent will be one of the most important decisions you make. A tent that is too large will have you wasting money on parameters such as the electricity to power lights, fans, pumps, etc. An area that is too small will crowd plants, causing a battle for available nutrients and water, stunting their potential growth.

Placing Fans

  • Ideally you’d like a nice breeze surrounding the main canopy, which means you want air blowing above and under the plants.
  • Don’t point a strong fan directly at a plant, because too much wind can start to damage the leaves and stems.
  • After placing fans, check around the grow area to make sure that all parts get a slight breeze. If you feel stagnant air or a lack or breeze, you may want to adjust your fans.
  • Small oscillating fans are great for the grow space since they’re cheap and can be used to provide a nice gentle breeze to a relatively wide area without blowing on any one part too long.

Connect the fan to the ducting
  • Hanging your inline fan may not be of great use if you fail to connect it to the ducting system. Therefore, you need to connect the ducting such that it allows the free flow of exhaust gases.
  •  The piping should have as minimal bends as possible. Also, make sure that the duct is not too long as the length will also affect the efficiency of the fan.
  • Finally, let the ducting run out through the exhaust hole. Also, make sure you seal off the tent where the ducting exits your structure. If left unattended, this point can be the entry point for destructive pests and other animals.

Placing Carbon Filter 

  • The place for your filter is in the exhaust system. Can-Lite activated carbon filters mount easily to Can-Fan and Max-Fan exhaust fans for long-lasting, consistent filtering performance with minimal resistance to cause airflow loss. Can-Lite fans and filters can be hung from grow tent supports or attached to solid surfaces in rooms with walls or ceilings.
  • The filter should be mounted on the intake side of the fan to remove contaminants before they reach the fan housing. Can-Lite filters come with pre-filters to keep dust, mold, and other particles from clogging the activated charcoal in the filter itself, so you should be pulling air through the filter rather than pushing air into it.

Conclusion:
Carbon filters contribute a lot to keep the indoor garden fresh from bad odors. If you cultivate indoor plants, then you must know how to install a carbon filter in a grow tent.

The inline duct fan should be attached to the solid frame tent perfectly. It highly helps in preventing loud noise, and excessive vibration. Make sure you are using the best equipment’s.
