Sorry ya'll! I had to fall off a bit. I am back, and I still on the journey of a lifetime!

That was my thought. I would use panels with overlapped seams to stop any air leaks, stapled in place, and then duct taped to seal any smaller pinhole leaks. I thought about getting this noise cancelling silicone adhesive and spreading it on super thin and rolling my panda with a dry paint...

Okay, so here is the workshop! And the DIY HEPA intake filter, ha! And now the walls that I have to stare at for now, but this is before I wrap and air seal them with panda The question is do I need to remove the walls down to bare gypsum, or will the panda sealed with white duct tape...

Yep! The basement it is. I am pulling intake from the bottom left side of the room, putting the scrubber in the upper right corner then pulling it through the fan hood and exhausting out of the top of the room on the same side of the intake. I figured if it was going in a circle that would be...

Got it. No ceiling fans, but I have oscillating fans I put in the basement because it helps air movement during the hotter parts of our year. It gets hot and humid where I live, and stale air blows, lol! A 40-something year old dude getting jazzed about constructing a grow closet. I feel...

What are your thoughts on exhaust? If I exhaust in the same room that pulls the intake does that affect anything negatively? I can try and run a 25 foot duct to a window to the outside and exhaust from there, but that would present the expense and time to engineer a window cover to not look...

Hey, K! Thanks for saying high! Hope all is well with you, and best of growing. I am just an old-noob diving back in and starting from close to scratch!

Perfect! I need to take the best advice I was ever given by reading on the subject close to a decade ago... Research all you want, but if you don't do hands on research it is just that. Research won't get you stoned, lol! Thanks again, Turbo! I will be sure to document things as I go, get...

So if I only have a passive intake and use the 175 CFM scrubber and inline fan do you think that will give me enough fresh air exchange in a 7' x 3.75' x 8 ' area? If so, I was thinking about using two HEPA air filters to scrub the incoming air (that was the idea of my original active intake)...

I will take a look at the set up! All info is welcomed. I am good at googling stuff I don't understand, ha!

I am working on constructing a closet that will have an intake. I know that the ideal ration is 1:4 for in to out stats... But I was wondering on getting some feedback about how this may work. I plan on using a 175 CFM rated 4" inline Hurricane fan and CFM matching 4" Carbonaire scrubber...
