Well I'll risk sounding like a wisy guy but why the CAN100? It happens to be the one I am probably going to get from what I have gleaned from various sources. My grow space is roughly 900 cubic feet. But these puppies are only a 18" tall and the first thing my daughter says when she comes home is "Who's smoking weed?" In the next day or so I'll have all the leaks in the space covered and the door installed...........thanks for the input!I would use a CAN100.

Seems Can filters are roughly $2 a lb. Doesn't lighter mean less activated charcoal? @ $200 I'm hoping to get 18 months out of a Can 100 filter. Is this expectation realistic for roughly 24 five gallon pots? May end up as few as 12 as I still have no idea of the sex of these plants. Thank you for the input, as always. Side question......? Why so many "Farmer" haters on the www. I find the help (as a noobie I need plenty ) here excellent. If I hadda guess I'd say former members disgruntled for being banned for being dicks?Phresh filters are great and are much lighter than CAN filters. As others said, the filter's CFM rating should be at least as high as the fan (and it can be higher, easily 50% higher if you want).

I was under the impression that the Can-Lite filters were built using the same charcoal as the Phresh filters. How long your filter will last is going to depend on your environment - amount of air flow and humidity etc.
I don't think there made with the same because I seen a video on YouTube and the guy that owns Phresh was talking about the charcoal they get is from Australia and its some of the best in the world. I think there the only filter company that has a contract with the manufacturing company in Australia that mines the charcoal. I'll do more research and let ya'll know.
If you look closely at Can's site you will see that Can-Lite's are built with "Australian RC Light Weight Granular Carbon". ;)
I get my 750 cfm Phresh filters from here. $140 + about $35 shipping. Horticulture Source has pretty good prices on most everything and they carry most everything too.
I bought the can-100 almost 2 years ago, and its done my 10x10 space 24/7 since. No smell.. AWESOMEWhat are you talking about?
The CAN100 is a massive filter - it's almost 4 feet tall and weighs a fucking 100 pounds.
Anyway - it is a nicely sized filter for that fan (maybe even a bit big) and properly vented should do a great job scrubbing that airspace.
