Trying to decide which fan to purchase for my 4x4 tents(105 cu. ft.). 6" hyperfan with 6"x24" scrubber will allow .2-1.7 acpm. Is this enough to maximize the smell reduction of my scrubber?

I believe the ventilation 101 thread recommends between .2 and 1 air change per minute. However I have read numerous threads recommending anywhere from 2 to 5 air changes per minute. I want to maximize smell reduction, while keeping my plants happy and not dehydrating them...

2x exchange here. depends on your lighting/heat load too. if you are using aa ducted light/led's you can probably get away with less ACPM. i like to oversize my fans and use a speed controller, that way you can dial it up if needed.

What "Speed of Green" said. I also use the 6" Hyperfan with a 24" scrubber in a 5x5x7. Since the Hyperfan comes with a speed controller you can dial it to the environment you are trying to acheive. My 24" Can-Lite achieves full odor control even with the fan running at 100%, though I typically run it at about 60%.
