Default building a supercloset

just wondering what fans i should use for a 6 inch cooltube.

I was thinking of using two axial fans on iether end like this

Amazon.com: 6-Inch 110VAC 250 CFM In-Line Duct Booster Fan: Electronics

for a carbon scrubber i would use a fan simular with the carbon filter inside the cab & the fan sucking on the carbon filter blowing outside the cab.

only issue i think is a problem is, would two 250 cfm fans like this be enuff to blow enuff airflow thru the cooltube on a 10 ft run, ill be using it to cool a 400 hps, ill be running a pipe from the vent out fan to a drier connection in the wall only another 5 - 6 feet away, would i be better off with only 1 iIN axiel fan, & use a vortex fan for OUT thru the cooltube.

Also thinking of using two of the same fans for the IN air below the light where the plants are, & have a back draft damper so when the fans are off, the dampers close off, so no smells can come from inside the cab going outside. Odvistly the carbon filter will be running all the time, so would i even need dampers ?

Cheers,
Cy

The Two Booster Fans, One On Each End Pulling & Pushing Will Cool The 400w, If You Pull Ambient Air From Outside The Grow Area Through The Cool-Tube Then Exhaust It The Same Way Outside The Grow Area, A Carbon Filter Won't Be Needed. Now For The Intake & Exhaust For The Grow Area Itself Will Need A Filter. An I Don't Feel You Would Need Dampers, But They Wouldn't Hurt To Have Them.

Best Of Luck On Getting Set-Up & Running, You Need Any More Help Just Holler.

i think i will use a booster fan for the in, & a small vortex fan or simular for the out fan for the cooltube, i dunno if i can get away with running two vents for the cooltube, i was only planning on venting out the hot air, not bringing in cool air, i suppose i could, the only other option would be to draw cool air from below my floor, then vent it out the drier vent i plan on installing.

Seems like a waste thou, even bcnorthernlights only vents the hot outside, seen the same idea in allot of grow rooms i used to do the same in a very small space, just vent the hot out. & it worked fine

seems the problem with the supercloset design is no grow cabinet intake for the plants i intend to add 2 fans like the coolcab has from sunlightsheds.

I contacted sunlightsheds & supercloset about buying there fans for the cooltube, no response by email. thinking i can just buy axiel fans instead.

Cheers,
Cy
