New Stealth Grow Room Diagram.....suggestions?

[New_2_Chronic]

Those gray 90's are just two ventilation elbows put together to allow air flow between rooms but stop light. Also if you just built your mom/veg/clone chamber out of slatted shelves they would share ambient light and all stay at the same temp. Let me know what you think.

tater,,,, i dont quite follw you....what grey 90's? and where do you suggest i place them?

Whats happening New!

What size fans are you going to use? Inline fans or squirrel cage? CFM rating?

The way I see it , you have a few options.

If you want to stay with 2 fans, then this is what I would do. I would use one of the fans to cool the lights, and the lights only. PULL air thru the lights, not push. Make it a sealed system, meaning you pull air from outside the room, thru the lights and then exhaust out of the room.


Use the other blower for your exhaust, like you have the red line in the graphic, to your scrubber.


Make all your air intakes passive. You have a smaller space so, imo, it will work fine.

Run your passive air intake lines to the floor, and use circulatory fans to disperse the fresh air.

Run your exhaust lines on the top of each chamber.

What size fans are you going to use? Inline fans or squirrel cage? CFM rating?

The fans are inline fans. The one for the scrubber is a 4 inch 170CFM. The one for exaust is 8 inch 360CFM Inline.

Make all your air intakes passive. You have a smaller space so, imo, it will work fine

This means just cutting some hols in the bottom right?

I would use the bigger fan for the Exhausting of the rooms to the scrubber. Use the smaller one to cool the HID's.

For the lights, use insulated ducting, if you can.

As far as the passive intakes, you are correct, just a simple hole that allows fresh air in will work fine.

So, say you use the 8" for room exhaust. I would put a 6" passive air intake in the main flower rooom in the bottom of the room. Also use a regular circulatory fan to blow the fresh air around.

I think that usuing the big blower for your exhaust is your best bet. The more aire you move, the better. Plus the 8" is strong oenough that you can use your piping idea and make smaller holes in the piping for the mom and veg space, and still pull enough out of the flowering chamber.

Whoops sorry bro. I was super baked and must have forgot to attach the picture. here it is.

After reading NorCalHals posts thats a better idea for the fans. You could scrub the blue fan in my diagram and just put a passive intake on the bottom of the clone room and one in the flowering chamber.

unfortunately I cannot use the bigger fan for the scrubber. The scrubber is rated to 200CFM. Thats why I had to buy the 4 inch
