GENERAL HYDROPONICS CARBON FILTERS
Premium Carbon Air Filter
Dutch Breeze Carbon Air Filters are made from the same great carbon as Mountain Air Carbon Filters, but at a much better price!
• Designed for the medical industry, General Hydroponics Carbon Air Filters are the only filters certified by the European Clean Air Act (ECAA).
• These filters – sold in the US only by General Hydroponics – are used in Europe for many demanding commercial applications, as well as in hospitals, as carbon air filters effectively remove 99.5% of airborne pathogens.
• General Hydroponics Carbon Air Filters use the highest quality carbon mined from pre-Cambrian ore (not from burned coco coir).
• The carbon grain size of GH Carbon Air Filters is 3mm, while the leading competitor uses a larger 5mm grain. This smaller carbon grain ensures that General Hydroponics Air Filters have greater surface area contact between the air stream and the carbon bed to clean the air more effectively.
• General Hydroponics Carbon Air Filters contain an expanding foam disk to ensure that the carbon stays tightly packed without air leaks.
• General Hydroponics Carbon Air Filters work with any popular inline fan. Calculate the size of your room and choose a fan that completely exchanges the air in the room eight to ten times per hour. Then choose the appropriate filter with the correct CFM and flange size to match that fan.
How do I use the GH Carbon Air Filter?
Filters can be placed inside or outside a growing environment and used for cleaning the intake or the exhaust air. Place a fan that matches the CFM rating of the filter into the flange on the filter top and place the filter on the floor, bottom end down, or hang the assembly horizontally in the growing area.
When do I use the GH Carbon Air Filter?
Use a GH Carbon Filter any time you need to clean 99.9% of all odors and unwanted airborne organisms from the air.
What will the GH Carbon Air Filter do for my plants?
Carbon filters purify air and prevent odors and disease organisms from entering or leaving growing environments.
Where will I see the results?
It is what you will not see (airborne disease) or smell (unwanted odor) as a result.
Why should I use the GH Carbon Air Filter?
GH Carbon Air Filters use only the highest quality pre-Cambrian mined carbon ore with the smallest grain size (more surface area to clean air) and carry a 1-year warranty.
NOTE: When choosing a fan to pair up with any carbon filter, BGH highly recommends choosing a centrifugal inline fan (i.e. Can-Fan, Vortex, Fantech, Eco Plus, etc.) as opposed to an axial or Suncourt-style fan (which doesn't generate enough static pressure). Dayton squirrel-cage exhaust fans will also do in a pinch for the smaller capacity carbon filters.
