How effective is your Carbon Filter in a flowering stage?

I have a tent 4x4x6.5ft using a activated carbon filter with a 170CFM Inline fan. I was told this is ideal for my tent. The air being blown out is odorless for now, but what about in a flowering period? I have it on a timer for 5 minutes every hour, I suppose I could increase to 15 every hour, but the temperature drastically drops when left on for that long. And is it just going to chronic odor into the room or does the carbon filter mask pretty efficiently? Any suggestions?:sad::?::?:bongsmilie

You could reposition the in-line fan and get a decent Xilence 120mm PC fan in there. 68CFM at a 21.2 dB noise level for £5, keep that on 24/7 if you can or only in the light hours, and have your in-line come on every hour for 5 minutes as it is.

Activated carbon filters don't mask odours, they eliminate them. and they do a pretty good job at it.
