Exhaust Running through Big Blue Ozone then Carbon Filter?

I have a question, I'm doing a closet grow with negative pressure temperature is controlled using an in room portable ac unit exhausted up through the ceiling into the attic. At the end of the exhaust I have CAN 2600 up in the attic. I am not into flowering yet and the 5 lil ones aren't so little anymore and are starting to stink a little. I've purchased a 4" big blue ozone generator. My intention is to put the big blue inline before the carbon filter and exit through carbon filter, my question is, will the ozone generator damage or degrade the carbon filter being there will then be ozone pushed through the carbon filter???? Any help is greatly appreciated!

Was contemplating using a Y connect in the attic and shooting 50% to tbe big blue and 50% to the 2600. Have you had experience with CAN filters, preferrably the 2600 and/or the big blue line of products? Do you think this will be sufficient odor control?

Thanks again!

why would 3 molecules of oxygen damage the carbon filter when two molecules of hydrogen and one of oxygen combined can pass through just fine?

I am a first timer with both of these units, the big blue states do not put a fan after the tube because it has the possibility of damaging the fan. So, your saying that would be fine to exhaust thru the tube and then exit out the carbon filter, Robert? if so that would be my ideal setup and what i wanted to do originally.....

are you trying to keep your attic from stinking? if so just put the o3 generator up there and don't worry about having it in line. just set a fan or something next to it and set it next to the carbon filter.

The filter is a CAN 2600 and it is located at the end of the ac's exhaust that goes into the attic, I don't know if your familiar with the big blue generators, they are designed to be used inline in ducting. So what I want to do is put the big blue inline before the carbon filter and exit out of the filter.

well who cares what you attic smells like anyhow? i would run that carbon filter inside the room and not worry about the exhaust unless you have a bunch of plants. my a/c exhaust is never noticeably stinky and it is right between my porch and the neighbors (duplex)
