This isn't the best picture, but you can see the scrubber hanging on Bungee cords in the top right. I have a 6"x4" adapter on the back of the scrubber that mates directly with the flanges that fit in the HH vent up there on the upper back wall, not the roof. The flange kits are a must buy in my opinion. They make getting ducting in/out SOOOOOOO much easier.

I don't pull through my 400W light. No need. My gow stays pretty much at room temperature or a couple degrees above. This time of year it stays in the low 70's at night and mid 70's day. Higher if I want it to be by turning on baseboard heater in grow room. I also exhaust in the same room. Never had a problem.

I hang light with chain. way easier than pulleys etc. My light is hanging directly from the supports at the moment...all the way as high as it will go. I have my ThaiTanics finishing up(Day 82 flower) as my hazes are just beggining. The bottom of the light is 15 inches below the hut's ceiling. The scrubber is 9 inches in diameter....so there is no advantage to moving it outside as far as space goes.

The light, scrubber, and fan all hang from ceiling "wire" support. The sag is maybe ONE inch. The ceiling support wire is plenty strong enough for my stuff IMO.

Here are some pics. I hope this helps answer some questions. The bigger huts are made exactly the same way. They do have 6 inch ports which is MUCH better. Fewer ducting adapters needed. The bigger ones use the same methods and construction though.



This is the front left corner of the hut. There is my fresh air intake ducting there. Just behind that piece of duct you will see one of three pieces of cardboard I covered the "flaps" with. Nothing could be easier.And by the way. I though all that air coming in the corner would bother the plant in that corner. Didn't happen. The plants did fine there.




Here's looking over my light towards the back right corner. You can see there isn't much sag here at all. These huts are made from all steel. Well made IMO for what they are and do. My light is nearly all the way up. A guy could modify the bracket and gain a few more inches. You can see how the scrubber mates with the 6x4 adapter and leaves the hut. Btter view on that below.


Here is looking straight up from below the back of the scrubber. Here you can see real well the 6x4 adapter and mating flange that you should buy when buying a hut. The flange kits they sell make this a real well made setup.



Side view




Those chains are not doing anything. At one time I thought of supporting the scrubber on chains. Bunjee cords work fine. The wire looking bracket is supplied for your scrubber but I didn't need it. Use whatever works for your particular scrubber if hanging inside. I like this arrangement because there is minimum of "stuff" involved in the air path. Straight out of the scrubber and out of the back. No elbows, no coils of ducting. Less crap in your airpath makes for less noise, hassle and better, more efficient air flow.



Here is the left side of my hut showing the blower that supplies air to that duct you see in the picture above.





And here is on the right side of the hut. My Dayton 465 sits there on that chair with no output restrictions or muffler. That ducting goes up to the upper right backside of the hut. There it mates with the other side of the flange you saw in the pics above with the scrubber. Real clean easy setup, and quiet.
