Anti-noise Box for Extractor 315 mm – Soundproof Wooden Housing

The Anti-noise box for the extractor 315 mm is the ultimate acoustic shield designed to house your tubular extractor, drastically reducing the decibels generated by the motor and air vibration. This high-quality wooden housing, internally lined with high-density foam, acts as a sound trap that transforms a noisy grow room into a stealthy and professional space, allowing you to maintain the necessary Air Extraction System without alerting the whole neighborhood.

Is the noise from your extractor keeping you awake at night?

We know the feeling: you have everything set up perfectly, but the constant hum of the turbine makes you paranoid. You don't know if the neighbors can hear it through the walls or if the vibration is resonating through the floor. It is the classic problem of the grower who underestimates the acoustic power of a 315 mm extractor running at full capacity.

If you don't solve this, the consequences go beyond a headache. A noisy crop is a detected crop. The lack of acoustic discretion can lead to complaints from neighbors, unwanted visits, and constant stress that prevents you from enjoying your hobby. In addition, the constant noise affects your rest and quality of life if you sleep near the grow room.

The solution is simple and effective: encapsulate the noise source. This soundproof box has been specifically calculated to swallow the vibrations and the mechanical sound of the extractor. By following a simple assembly and installation process, you will turn that annoying roar into a barely perceptible whisper, recovering your peace of mind and the security of your harvest.

Phase 1: Preparing the ground

Before you start assembling, you need to make sure you have everything ready. This box is designed for RVK type tubular extractors, so the first thing is to verify compatibility. You don't want to start assembling to find out that your fan has a different shape.

• Check the diameter: Ensure your extractor is indeed 315 mm (or select the appropriate box size: 100, 125, 150, or 200 mm).
• Gather tools: You will need a screwdriver (preferably electric) to assemble the wooden panels.
• Prepare the connections: Have your soundproof ducting (Sono Connect type) and metal clamps ready.
• Workspace: Clear a table or flat surface to assemble the box comfortably without scratching the wood.

Phase 2: Setting up the product

The box is served disassembled to facilitate transport and reduce shipping costs. Don't worry, it's like a puzzle for adults, but much easier. The goal here is to create an airtight cabin for your fan.

1. Identify the parts: Separate the wooden panels and the high-density foam sheets.
2. Pre-assembly: Present the sides of the box to understand how they fit together.
3. Insert the extractor: Before closing the box completely, place the extractor inside, ensuring that the mouth fits perfectly with the holes in the box.
4. Fix the foam: Make sure the foam covers the entire interior; this is the material that does the magic of absorbing sound.
5. Screw down: Close the box and tighten the screws well so that the structure is solid and does not vibrate.

Phase 3: Use / growing step by step

Once assembled, it's time to integrate it into your Climate Control system. A bad installation can ruin the soundproofing work, so follow these steps carefully.

1. Suspension: Do not place the box directly on the floor or a shelf. Hang it using rubber tensioners or ropes to prevent vibrations from transmitting to the structure of the house.
2. Duct connection: Connect the extraction tubes to the mouths of the box. Use quality clamps.
3. Sealing: Use duct tape to seal the joints between the tube and the box. Any air leak is a noise leak.
4. Filter connection: Connect your Carbon filter for grow tent before the extractor (inside the tent) to ensure that the air coming out is clean and odorless.
5. Test run: Turn on the extractor. You should notice a dramatic drop in noise immediately.
6. Final adjustment: If you hear vibration, adjust the tensioners or check that the box is not touching any wall.

Phase 4: Closing, maintenance and learnings

The anti-noise box requires very little maintenance, but it is not "install and forget forever". When you finish a crop cycle, it is good to do a quick check. Check that the screws have not loosened with the micro-vibrations of months of continuous use.

Also, check the state of the internal foam. Although it is durable, ensure that moisture has not affected it. If you ever change the extractor, remember that this box is reusable, as long as you maintain the same diameter. It is an investment that will last you for many years.

Advantages of following this flow instead of improvising

• Total Discretion: You eliminate the "turbine factor" that gives away so many growers.
• Acoustic Comfort: You can sleep in the next room without earplugs.
• Professional Efficiency: By reducing vibration, you also extend the life of the extractor.
• Versatility: Available in sizes for 100, 125, 150, 200, and 315 mm models (dimensions: 41 x 44 x 31 cm for the 315 mm model).
• Control: You master the environment of your crop, avoiding improvisation with blankets or homemade inventions that can be dangerous (fire hazard).

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it completely eliminate the noise?

It eliminates almost all the mechanical noise of the motor and vibration. However, the noise of the air rushing through the tubes (wind noise) is reduced by using soundproof ducts (Sono Connect) in combination with the box.

Can I use it with extractors that are not RVK?

It is designed for tubular extractors (RVK type). If you have a turbine or box type extractor, it will not fit. Check the dimensions and shape of your device before buying.

Is it difficult to assemble?

Not at all. It comes with everything necessary and is intuitive. If you have assembled furniture from a certain Swedish brand, this will be child's play.

Does the box heat up the extractor?

No, the extractors are cooled by the air passing through them. The box does not impede the internal air flow, it only blocks the sound coming out.

Personal Experience of Pevgrow’s CEO (Alan)

I remember my first indoor setups; I used to wrap the extractors in blankets and duct tape trying to silence them. Not only was it ugly, but it was dangerous and barely worked. When I started using these wooden boxes with high-density foam, the change was abysmal. I organize my "silence phase" right at the beginning of the assembly.

My advice: don't skimp on this. I made the mistake of thinking that "noise isn't a big deal" until I had to turn off the equipment at night so as not to disturb, causing humidity spikes. With the box, I can leave the extraction running 24 hours a day without anyone finding out. It is essential for your peace of mind.
