Grow room exhaust into attic.
Your grow room will therefore have two other fans one blowing air into the grow room and another blowing air out of the grow room.
Ok so i m using a grow tent in my closet 20 x 36 x 64 from htg and my only worry is ventilation.
Either an intake fan that pulls air from an outside source or a passive exhaust system pulls in fresh air by forcing old air out through an exhaust duct.
My grow is in a small closet in a spare room of the house.
Keep the exhaust intake holes at opposite positions.
In an active intake the size of the intake hole does not matter.
We show you how to purify your growroom s incoming air using ideal air duct collars and couplers phresh intake filters and hurricane inline extraction fans.
It s not included on a tour of the house and isn t visible to neighbors.
Moreover you need to use the active intake system if your tent is enormous or if you face problems brought about by high temperatures.
Your grow room is going to be bright and attics have less places for light to leak out and alert neighbors.
I m not too sure on how if the attic is vented.
Open loop grow rooms consistently provide fresh air to the plants in one of two ways.
If you don t want your plants to breathe it over again there is a hack.
Is this going to cause the bud smell to permeate the house.
I was thinking of a portable or building a window ac unit box and exhausting the heat into the attic or maybe tap into the bathrooms fart fan exhaust.
The outside source of fresh air could be a separate room in your house the hallway an attic basement cracked window or even directly from outside if.
The attic only has the soffit vents all around.
This will avoid the build up of humidity and heat when you vent grow tent into attic.
Exhausting into the attic would be super easy but again i pause with reservation of mold concerns.
I will have one 6 inline fan running air through my 400 hps bulb have a 6 exhaust at the top of my tent blowing through a carbon scrubber and possibly another 4 inline fan at the bottom for intake.
Nobody else is going to go in your attic but you.
