SAB vs Air purifier
    #26748044 - 06/16/20 01:18 AM (3 years, 7 months ago)

I bought an air purifier. A 3m filtrete. Since the filter is hepa and is 99.97% one of those, im debating just turning the purifier on its side and using it as a flow hood. Ill do half with my SAB and half with air purifier and let you guys know the contam rate and if it works!

It can't function as a flow hood- at least not a laminar flow hood. It'll be a turbulent flow hood. I don't expect you'll have great results, but if you wanna give it a shot, go for it and report back with results. Good luck

honsetly if you were to do that you may as well just toss them in the trash now. as mentioned laminar flow will not be reached. all you will do is openly invite and introduce all of the molds and bacteria in the air and on your person directly into your grow. i really hope you dont move fwd with that plan. a properly made sab and good sterile tek will do you perfectly fine. yes true laminar flow hoods are great and i wish i could have one where i am as do lots of others on here. but there is a reason so many of us use the sab and that is cuz it works and is reliable.

SAB+air filter in closed room is an okay idea to me.
Given the purifier has been running continuously for quite some time.
Purifier only? Nah Good luck mate.

Look up Shmuv bag or something like that.

They attach a trash bag to an air purifier then cut arm holes in it. It inflated and you can work inside it like a flow/SAB hybrid.
