Grow exhaust air refers to the controlled removal of used air from a grow box or growing room. This system ensures the removal of excess heat, moisture and CO₂, thereby creating optimal growth conditions for the plants.
The system removes stale, warm, humid air from the grow room and replaces it with fresh, oxygen-rich air. This not only promotes plant growth, but also prevents mold and other problems that can arise from stagnant air.
An effective grow exhaust system typically consists of:
This setup ensures optimal air circulation and odor control, creating a healthy environment for plant growth.
A well-thought-out exhaust system offers several advantages:
An efficient exhaust system plays a crucial role in maintaining a healthy and productive growing environment.
When planning an exhaust system, consider the following points:
A properly sized and designed system tailored to these factors will help create an optimal growing environment.
The dimensioning depends on the size of the room and the number of plants. A common guideline is that the fan should circulate the air in the room at least once per minute. For example, a 10 m² room with a 2.5 m ceiling height requires a fan with an output of at least 250 m³/h.
Modern fans are energy efficient and use less electricity. By using timers or intelligent controls, operation can be optimized and energy saved. In addition, an efficient system helps reduce CO₂ emissions.
There are various systems for air exhaust:
Each system serves different needs, depending on the scale and layout of your grow space. Choosing the right one ensures optimal airflow, temperature regulation, and odor control.

The exhaust system ensures that the used air is removed from the grow setup and fresh air can flow in. It helps to regulate the temperature and humidity and neutralizes unpleasant odors through an activated carbon filter.
An activated carbon filter is crucial for removing odors that can arise when growing plants. Without a filter, these odors could leak out, which could attract unwanted attention. The filter effectively binds the odor molecules and ensures odor-free exhaust air.
The size of the exhaust system is calculated in cubic meters per hour (m³/h). As a rule of thumb: The air volume of the grow room (length × width × height) should be exchanged at least 30 times per hour. An example: A grow room with a volume of 2 m³ requires an exhaust system with a capacity of at least 60 m³/h.
Exhaust systems typically produce a noise level of 20 to 50 decibels, depending on the performance and design. To minimize noise, soundproof pipes or silencers can be used. Proper installation and flexible connections also help to reduce vibrations.
Maintenance depends on usage and environmental conditions. A carbon filter should typically be replaced every 6 to 12 months as its filtering performance decreases over time. Fans and hoses should be checked for dust and debris and cleaned every 3 to 6 months to ensure optimal performance.
Yes, technically it is possible, but it is not recommended if odor neutrality is desired. Without an activated carbon filter, odors can escape to the outside, which could be problematic, especially in densely populated areas.
The diameter of the ventilation pipes affects the air flow. Pipes that are too small increase resistance and can reduce the performance of the exhaust system. It is important to match the pipe diameter to the performance of the fan – common sizes are 100 mm, 125 mm or 150 mm.
Soundproofed ventilation pipes, flexible connections and silencers can be used to dampen noise and increase efficiency. In addition, the fan should be mounted on vibration-damping materials to minimize disturbing noise.
An exhaust system that is too weak can lead to a build-up of heat and moisture. This increases the risk of mold growth and can negatively affect plant growth. In addition, odors cannot be removed effectively, which could be problematic.
Yes, the exhaust air system can be automated by using timers, thermostats or humidistats. These devices control operation based on temperature and humidity, resulting in more efficient use.
