    I need to run a carbon filter here and create slight negative pressure in my flower room during stank phase. The smell has gotten completely out of hand here and people are noticing it driving down my road if they have their window down, and thsts quite some distance from my house. I get a few comments and most know exactly what it is. That's a big concern.

    I can't really do it properly though with my current setup as the main AC draws some air from the room for the heat exchanger and I have to vent that outside unfiltered and with extra heat, which likely makes the stank even worse. I need a big split system to solve that...
    Flower Room: 11' x 7' x 7.5'H, 480w AC, 13gal/day dehumidifier, 1.5gal ultrasonic humidifier, 60gal (27gal usable) nute tank, 16" pedestal fan & 18" wall fan. Lighting and climate automated. Hand watering.
    Veg Cupboards: ​​​​​​Two 4x2x6H cupboards. SF2000 Evo in one SF7000 in other. Climate controlled and automated. Hand watering
    Aeroponics Low Pressure Bucket: 20W LED. 5 clones & 20W LED 11 clones
    Lights: Mars Hydro FC-E1200W, SF-7000, SF-2000 evo in flower room.
    Medium: Coco/perlite, 7.2gal pots, no drains
    Current Grow: ​​​5 x Photos Franklin's Orange Zkittles x Sour Diesel in flower room, 3 Franklin's White Widow x Sour Diesel Clones, 13 x Orange ZkittleZ x Sour Diesel clones in Aeroponics buckets x 2.
    Last Grow: A mix

      My old tent was a DIY and when the fan came on the sides got sucked in, so there was a lot of negative pressure for the carbon filter to be most effective.

      Bluey maybe you could construct a small box in the middle of the exhaust run and mount an ozone generator in there. That would eliminate the smell... Your only looking for a small unit, but not to small lots of air flow moving through there. Some people use the Ozone generating UV lights for AC duct and some use a small ozone plate with fan..Two approach guess it depends on the situation.

      just a thought

        Ozone generators are something I know zero about.

        The AC blows out a lot of air through a 4" duct that's quite short. I could divert it into the sewer.....hmm. worth a test.
