So I have a 10x12 indoor grow in my basement. Currently the room is sealed VERY well and just installed a 10" carbon filter and fan exhaust system. Now the dilemma begins, we are not sure where to ehaust/intake from. I originally wanted to remove a basement window and exhaust and intake directly outside but being in Michigan with drastic seasonal temperature changes we are concerned with pulling in freezing temp air during winter. Option 2 was ehaust into basement and passive intake for fresh air in the grow, my concern here is I absolutely do not want a stinky house and I do not want weed that has a "basement flavor". So our solution to option 2 was exhaust into a small "lung room" that can clean the air and recycle it back into the grow room and refilter through a HEPA filter before reentering the grow. Option 3 was ehxaust directly outside and NOT draw air from outside for intake, this will obviously create negative pressure in my home and is not really ideal for me, still has the issue of basement flavored weed. So basically what I'm asking is how are guys dealing with air exchange in regions that have extreme changes in outdoor temps? The most important things to me are 1) grow must get best quality clean air possible and 2) absolutely no stink in my home. I will attach a couple pics of the grow although the issue is basically fundamental.
