Can-Lite Carbon Filter

Scrub grow-room odour out of your exhaust before it leaves the tent

The Can-Lite Carbon Filter from CAN-Filters is an inline activated-carbon filter that pairs with your extraction fan to strip odour compounds from exhaust air before they reach the rest of the house. Built around 100% Australian granulated carbon with 51% open perforation and an integrated flange, it is manufactured in a dedicated carbon-filter plant in North America and comes in eight sizes spanning 600 to 4,500 m3/h, so there is a match for anything from a single-plant tent to a full room.

Key Benefits

• 100% Australian granulated carbon: a dense, high-activity carbon bed for thorough odour adsorption over a long service life.
• 51% open perforation: lets air pass through the carbon evenly without robbing the fan of airflow or static pressure.
• Aluminium top and bottom with integrated flange: lighter than steel and connects straight to standard ducting with no extra adapter.
• Eight sizes, 600 to 4,500 m3/h: sized to match common inline fans exactly so carbon contact time stays high.
• Supplied with a pre-filter: catches dust and larger particles to protect the carbon and extend working life.
• Shrink-wrapped, boxed and labelled: sealed at the factory so the carbon arrives fresh and unspent.

Odour escaping the grow room?

Smell leaking from a tent almost always comes down to a filter undersized for the fan pulling through it, or carbon that has run past its effective life, both of which let volatile compounds pass through untouched. Matching the filter's rated airflow to your fan's airflow keeps enough carbon contact time to scrub the air properly.

How to Use

• Fit the filter inline with your extraction fan, matching its rated airflow to the fan's airflow so air has enough contact time with the carbon.
• Mount horizontally or vertically as space allows, connecting ducting to the integrated flange with a jubilee clip.
• Keep the pre-filter clean and replace it periodically to stop dust reaching the carbon bed.
• Refresh the carbon every 12-18 months of continuous use, sooner with heavy-odour crops or heavy-use rooms.
