The Activated Carbon Filter Max Carbon line is the best odor filter specially designed for indoor crops.
The new line of activated carbon filters Carbon Filter Max Carbon has been specially designed for indoor cultivation.
The Carbon Filter Max Carbon line is the best activated carbon filter on the market, specifically designed for indoor crops.
In this category you can choose your activated carbon filters able to totally clean the air of environments and grow rooms from all odors!!! Connectable to the air extractors (aspirators) of the grow tents, the carbon filter is now a fundamental tool in indoor growing to eliminate unpleasant odors.
The activated carbon filter consists of a metal cylinder with an internal chamber filled with activated carbon granules. As the air passes through, the carbon filter eliminates odors developed by flowering plants.
The activated carbon filter is connected to the outlet flange of the extractor fan via a piece of flexible duct. The activated carbon air filters must be replaced every 3-4 cultivation cycles, because the carbons exhaust their odor neutralizing properties.
Characteristics and use of the activated carbon filters
activated carbon filters must always be installed inside our grow tent/room before the air extractor.
It can be connected directly to the extractor via the appropriate flanges or if we have a particular system setup that does not allow us to connect the filter directly to the extractor, we can connect it by means of a flexible aluminum pipe segment and fill the gap.
The installation of activated carbon filters does not compromise the normal functioning of the extractors, there is only a slight decrease in the flow rate which is calculated by the manufacturers.
How does a carbon filters for extractor fans works?
A carbon filters for extractor fans is an additional component of the air extractors , useful for cleaning the air in the indoor environments of the grow room and grow box from all odors. The structure of these filters is structured around a few key elements:
- A metal cylinder, the load-bearing part of the structure;
- An internal chamber filled with activated carbon granules;
The activated carbon filter connects to the air extractors (aspirators) of the grow boxes. And once connected to the outlet flange, via the aluminum hose, it's ready to go.
When the extractor pushes the air inside the grow box, these granules of activated carbon absorb the odors developed by flowering plants. In this way, they prevent them from reaching and spreading in the external environment.
In fact, the activated carbons contained in the filters capture the terpene molecules leaving the ventilation pipe. However, the effectiveness of activated carbon filters has a limited duration which decreases over time: it is therefore recommended to replace the filter every 3-4 cultivation cycles to maintain an optimal level of odor absorption.
Why use a carbon filters for grow tents?
There are many reasons, at home, for wanting to use one of these carbon filters for grow tents:
- Prevent odors from annoying neighbors or other inhabitants of your home;
- Optimize the spaces dedicated to the grow tent, which can thus be installed even in poorly ventilated places;
- Avoid that penetrating odors can saturate and remain for a long time in a confined space.
Furthermore, that some models of activated carbon filters for air can help to reduce, if not silence, the noise of the air extractor, if this is a problem.
Buy the best carbon filters
There are many types of activated carbon filters on the market. When choosing the most suitable model for your setup, it is very important to consider 2 factors:
- Diameter of the filter (which must be proportional to that of the tube to which it is to be attached);
- Filter capacity (each filter is designed to work with extractor fans of a specific power).
The carbon filter is now a fundamental tool in indoor cultivation to eliminate any unwanted smell. If you want to build your own homemade grow tent, you absolutely cannot give up such a convenience.
In this category you will find a wide range of activated carbon filter models for grow tents, different in diameter and size.

How to use a small carbon filter
Small carbon filter must always be installed inside your grow tent or grow room before the air extractor.
You can connect it:
- Directly to the extractor through the appropriate flanges;
- By means of a segment of flexible aluminum pipe if you have a particular system setup that does not allow you to connect it directly to the extractor.
The installation of an activated carbon filter does not compromise the normal functioning of the extractor, it is possible to find only a small decrease in the flow rate and in the performance of the extractor, which however is already calculated by the manufacturers.
Furthermore, the reduction in flow caused by the filter is taken into account in the formula for choosing the air extractor supplied by us
