my grow tent is only 4x2x5.can this be mounted outside tent?best way to mount fan (push or pull thru filter?

Definitely, I would put the filter out of the way and run out top or side. Always pull from filter, make a big mess if you push.

Yes, you can place it outside of your tent. Placing it outside of your tent I would suggest having the fan pull the air into the filter from your tent to help oder. I highly suggest you attempt using the fan and filter ououside before hand to make sure it does not blow excess materials from the filter. Hope this input helps.

Way that works best for me is pulling threw filter and fan mounts to filter with self tapping screws good set up for starters

There is a clip on the top of the fan. Super easy assuming your tent has a loop or something to clip it to. I use it in my 2 person tent and it's pretty good, may be a little weak for a 3 person.

You will have to mount onto something but mounting brackets are very flexible. this is a great fan, still going strong after a couple years of hard use and love the thermostat option.

The exhaust hose pumps out a lot of heat, not sure how you'd secure it in a tent without venting as much heat as cool for little net gain. Could it be done, probably, but you might be better off with the bucket/fan/and ice contraption.

I took a single self tapping screw and drilled it through filter into the metal of the fan. Works well in my setup since I have it well supported in the air.

The fan is mounted inside a 6inch diameter metal tubing about 6 0r 8 inches long.,connecting wires comes out on the side. The direction of air flow is marked on the housing. Depending on your use you can either suck out air or byreversing direction blow air into.

This is a ceiling hugger fan and must be flush mounted. The mounting is less than 10" in diameter accoring to my eyeball assessment. It cannot be mounted with a downrod.

I would recommend it. One fan to duct the light and another for the carbon filter. I bought this as a "drying tent"Can't beat the price and great quality!!I put it up and down by myself. Love it

Hi- depending on the light you will use, most likely you'll need one intake and one exhaust fan, I use this LEDwholesalers GYO2402 6-Inch 240 CFM Air Duct Inline Hydroponic Booster ... for the exhaust because it fits the cut-out in the tent. I just use a piddly little fan in front of a vent for intake.

I added another side vent and a quality greenhouse fan in the side of the greenhouse. As the weather changes, a small heater will be installed too. The clear siding can be drilled and cut with a saber saw. It is tough stuff and a razor knife is difficult. I used a fine blade on the saber saw for the fan mount. I suppose you could put a heater anywhere in the unit and run the cord through a small opening.

no and yes. is there a built in mounting point for a fan? no. But i did add one using a scythe slim slipstream (i think it was 10mm thick) and mounted it in the indention in the mesh on the top cover. I drilled 4 holes in the mesh and mounted the fan to that. But i did that using a passively cooled embedded Asus AMD setup so i had room. If you get a cooler running chip and a nice Low profile cooler you should be good without one.

This tent comes with 6" vent ducts. Needs 6" ducting and blower and filter. Get the 440 CFM blower and filter if running through light. I use solar storm 440 and a mars 2 1200 watt led. I have also used the appollo cob reflector. My plants love led lights.

Yes i have one going into my tent with 8 in duct for frsh air. And one attached to my two 600watt hps hoods pulling hot air out. Great fans my have been running for over a year straight with no noises. Every 3 months pull apart and dust it. I recommend using a reducer on the end of ur hood thats sucking air. It creates higher flow rates cetered over your bulbs. Make sure to use ladies leggings over the reducer abd over your intake fan to keep dust out of the tent and off ur bulbs. Gl brotha hope i helped.. toke on

This fan is not a flush mount fan. You can use a down rod with it. We used a 12" down rod. We've been very happy with this fan.

Not if you have an outlet. If there's no outlet then run an extension cord or have an electrician put in an outlet close to the location you wish to mount the fan.

For a tent of this size you would be ok with only an exit fan with or without the carbon filter. Two fans would work as well and provide better circulation but that is not necessarily needed. On my tent I have an exhaust vent in the top and I just tied the holes closed with the provided cords. There are three passive air inlets near the bottom of the tent that will let enough air in.

i see that your tent is 48" Wide by 24" Deep by 60" thats a fairly decent size and unless you are using low watt led and or fluorescent you are going to need a bigger fan, at least for the exhaust youll need a 4" blower fan minimum, 6" preferred like this: http://www.amazon.com/VenTech-IF4-Inline-Duct-Fan/dp/B005KMOJPK/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1402989956&sr=8-4&keywords=4+duct+fan and you can use 1 or 2 of these small duct fans as intake.
