it seems to say it is. you dont have to be ignorant about it. it sounded like you were.

[h=2]Product Description[/h][h=3][/h]Boost air flow in long duct runs with this inline duct fan.

i was just wondering anyways, if you were gonna put a rude sounding answer down then you shouldnt have replied to my thread. i figured if its a hell of alot cheaper why not. but thanks for letting me know it wont work.

Duct booster fans wont cut it when it comes to scrubbing air. What you want is an inline fan like one of these:

Good Luck with your grow!

EDIT: After looking again at the size of that tent a 4" fan and scrubber will be plenty.

exactly what i said......lol rep for you sir.....

Scrubbers, like fans, have a CFM rating. Sometimes they have a Max CFM, and a Min CFM rating. You need a fan that's CFM rating is somewhere in between the max and min CFM rating of the scrubber. If you get a fan that has a CFM rating higher than the scrubber, it will pull the air past the scrubber matrix (activated carbon) too fast and it will not effectively "scrub" the air. Make sure you take into account for all of your bends and tubing as this will have an effect on the overall CFM rating of the fan. Best of luck.
