If you can't smell anything on a calm day outside your exhaust then it's good to go. _________________________ Later .... LabRat, a proud Ductapo Ergo Sum. (I Duct Tape, Therefore I am)

TheGuy_Eh Veteran Registered: 01/17/09 Posts: 1260	Looks like a carbon filter to me. Lab is right though, spend sometime outside before trying to do a smell test yourself. You can get used to the odor and not notice it as much as others. _________________________ Originally Posted By: Sir Robin the Fisherman What is the diff. between his oral temp. and rectal temp?

If not, this will be a good air filter to prevent dust/bugs/pollen etc, but it's not going to do much for smell if no carbon is actually there for the scrubbing. _________________________ - When the power of love overcomes the love of power, there will then be peace -

Rebel Dawg Super Stoner Registered: 09/06/07 Posts: 4616 Loc: Medical grow in USA	yes it will work for a small grow. I have used similiar homemade ones in the past and they worked well. Now days I buy the real ones but have a larger and stinkier grow. _________________________ Respect Few Fear None Trust No One Smoke all the bud you can because tommorrow you might die.
