INSTALLATION
STEP 1
Connect your duct tube over your filter. Use duct clamps to secure the
connection. You may also apply ducting tape before using the duct clamps for
further security.
STEP 2
You may also connect your filter directly to your inline duct fan. Use duct
clamps to secure them together.
If your filter is placed in a humid space, position it at the highest point
possible.
OVERHEAD HANGING
STRAPS
STEP 1
Loop the strap around a hanging pole.
STEP 2
Slip the strap through the inner ladder lock slot from the bottom.
STEP 3
Route the strap into the outer ladder lock slot from the top. Adjust the
length of the completed loop as needed.
STEP 4
Tuck the loose ends through the center gap of the ladder lock to secure the
loop.
STEP 5
Connect your filter to your ductwork using your preferred method, as shown on
page 9.
ROPE CLIPS
STEP 1
Loop the rope clip hangers around your grow tent’s support beams.
STEP 2
Hook the carabiners into the steel hooks located on the flanges.
CONFIGURATION SETUP
PREFILTER
When placing your filter inside your grow space, slip the cloth over your
filter to block dust and other particles from passing through.
Make sure the entire metal mesh is covered by the cloth.
INTERIOR HANGING
To use your filter in intake applications, place it inside your grow space.
Make sure your filter is connected to your inline duct fan’s intake end before
completing the installation.
EXTERIOR MOUNTING
To use your filter in exhaust applications, place the filter outside of your
grow space. Make sure your filter is connected to your inline duct fan’s
exhaust end before completing the installation.
Stuff the prefilter inside of the filter to lengthen the carbon bed’s
lifespan.
OVERSIZED GROW SPACE
Use a dual fan and filter combination inside your grow space to completely
scrub away odor in larger grow rooms and tents. Set a second filter on the
floor and an inline fan on top of it so that the exhaust end points up.
MAINTENANCE
REVERSING THE FLANGES
To extend your filter’s lifespan and utilize its entire carbon bed, remove the
flanges from either end, swap them to the other ends, and twist them back into
place.
Lay the filter horizontally when reversing the flanges. Ensure the stopper is
in place to keep the carbon from spilling out.
WASHING THE PREFILTER
Wash the reusable cloth as needed to clear it of any dust and build-up. This
will further extend the lifespan of your filter.
REPLACING THE CARBON
STEP 1
Rotate the port flange from your filter, then remove the rubber stopper from
the interior.
STEP 2
Dispose of the used carbon.
Used carbon can be composted.
STEP 3
Place and direct the funnel into one of the openings and scoop the carbon
refill into your filter.
Make sure to evenly distribute and firmly pack the activated carbon as you
refill your filter.
Do not fill past the plastic barrier.
STEP 4
Set the rubber stopper into place, making sure to align the nodes with the
corresponding holes.
STEP 5
Twist the flange back onto your filter.
