Noise in a duct is caused by excessive velocity and most main duct trunk lines are calculated to not exceed 750 FPM in a residential application. Your will always want to maintain a slight negative to keep odours in check. I used roxall sound batts and 5/8 ply, steel studs, aluminum backed bubble wrap and you can't here anything outside the shed, that's with 6 pumps, a couple of fans, and 280 cfm extraction setup to all lights. But yup gotta be careful . And to the guy that's growing without the wife knowing ...... well perhaps she's doing stuff you know nothing about, seems she may not be paying much attention LOL.Your right about the fans being odd. And the weird thing is it's twist as quiet this way. Something aboutits the ventured effect if you restrict fan with duct size it produces a lot of decibels at the exhaust point.
No .Tim Fox do you think a light dimmer will work for a speed control
Lowes has them I would think, just need to make sure it's for a fan, I think some by their nature are quieter, Google would be your friend here. I do a bit of duct design, I'm a refrig mechanic and a few more tickets so love this stuff.Damn Dudley, tell it like it is lol.
The thing with the noise, that's what I said hahaha. I mean you said it a lot better, I can't deny that.
I really like your room design, much better than mine. And thanks for answering the light dimmer question, I didn't think so and that's way I asked. But can't ya get one at Lowe's a simple 3 speed switch or is that a electric supply item.
Thanks for your help.
P.S. anyone have a marriage counselor # handy hahaha hahaha
I used blue planet high yield in my rdwc systems, very nice nutrient line, no complaints and very cheap. I use canno coco line now as I am not doing rdwc anymore but definitely recommend blue planet. Use code medgrower1 on blueplanets website for discount.Hey thanks for the post. I planned on buying almost everything via Amazon. My cart is currently $2400 lol. Lots of the same products doubled up so I can look at options tho. I imagine it will be about $1600 when it's time to buy lights/fans/nutes/etc.
And I think I'm going to use ProMix HP. Dixie cups to one gallons to either 3 or 5 gallons. And I plan on using either the full organic or the full elite line from Blue Planet. Silica, cal mag, maybe throw an overdrive in at the end.
And yep everything that moves or makes noise will be hung/roped/bungie mounted. I don't plan to hard mount anything other than my room fans.
i have used ceiling fan dimmers on bathroom ceiling fans back in the day for ghetto box grows, and they worked fineTim Fox do you think a light dimmer will work for a speed control
good list of parts bro,, so fun watchin oyu put this togetherSo here is a quick rundown on the products I'm looking to use here.
My room design sucks lol. I need way more room doing stacked totes and tray's, about 10x20x10 would be just perfect .Damn Dudley, tell it like it is lol.

I agree with TF I've made a bunch of changes / up grades . So it'll take me 5/6 to brake even . LolLooks outstanding!! well done,, i like craftmanship
Preparing a Grow room / grow site,, is a sink hole,, lol,, it will be a TON of money by the end,,
But , if you do it right, and the way you want, you will not have to spend more later making changes you should have done in the first place,, after the first grow it typically pays for itself,, maybe the second grow depending,,
glad your still around
