AC Infinity Air Carbon Filter 10" with Premium Australian Virgin Charcoal, for Inline Duct Fan, Odor Control, Hydroponics, Grow Rooms

I upgraded my dust collector system to also have one port that was a fume extractor for welding. I upgraded the filter to a 0.2-micron Hepa filter, but I still needed a carbon filter to remove any VOCs So I thought I would give this a try. I must say I am impressed with how well this works! there is zero smoke in my airconditioned shop, even after welding for hours! Just for fun, I thought I would see how well the system would remove paint fumes... I have a cabinet I was working on, and so I turned on the system and sprayed lacquer on the cabinet, 4 coats. I left the system running for about an hour after I was done, because I was not spraying under my fume extraction hood, but I was halfway between the dust collector exhaust and the carbon filter, so the air had to get from one to the other and go right past my spray area. When I went back out to shut off the system, I was surprised that it did not smell like lacquer at all! Normally when I spray lacquer in my shop, even the next morning there is a strong smell of lacquer, it takes over 2 days to fully dissipate, but this filter removed all trace of it in less than an hour! I've used it to remove the lacquer fumes on several other occasions and it's worked very well each time. I'm really amazed at how well it removes the VOCs from the lacquer as well as the fumes created by welding. It's a great addition to my shop that allows me to work in air-conditioned comfort while also enjoying clean air.

Filter sock came torn out the box, after installation it didn't last long and started to noticed smells after a couple weeks. After a little research the carbon wall on the A/C infinity filters is a lot thinner then other brand. A couple millimeters save the company a lot of money but the customer relaying on stealth pays the price.

Purchased about 8 months ago. Was in flower when I installed. Worked great. Took summer off of indoor growing. Now just finishing second run 12 weeks autoflower. Whole house stinks. So maybe got 16-18 weeks out of it.
