With the right combination of extractors, ducts, and grow tents, your setup will maintain a clean, refreshed environment free of odors even during advanced flowering.

Can Filters: specialists in odor-neutralizing carbon filters for indoor cultivation

The Can Filters brand has been developing odor-neutralizing carbon filters for indoor cultivation for decades, specifically designed for cannabis rooms and tents where discretion is essential. Their technology is based on a high-quality granular activated carbon bed, densely packed to maximize the surface area in contact with the air and effectively trap aromatic compounds and VOCs that generate odor.

In Pevgrow's catalog, products from this brand fall under the category of odor-neutralizing carbon filters, where you will find different models and capacities to suit all types of configurations. From small tents to large grow rooms, Can Filters carbon filters connect directly to the extraction system to neutralize odors before the air exits to the outside.

Advantages of Can Filters carbon filters over other filters

One of the main advantages of Can Filters is their “packed bed” design, which uses a much thicker layer of granular carbon than many standard filters. This increases the odor adsorption capacity while maintaining a relatively low pressure drop, so the air extractor does not have to work harder to move the necessary airflow.

The range includes lines such as Can-Original and Can-Lite. Specifically, the Can-Lite models stand out for being lighter, using high-efficiency virgin carbon, and coming with a pre-filter sleeve that retains dust and coarse particles before they reach the carbon, thus extending the filter's lifespan. Pevgrow sells odor-neutralizing filters of this type, lightweight yet highly effective, capable of virtually eliminating odors from the air expelled by the extractor.

Another competitive advantage is the product consistency: Can Filters works with strict quality controls over the activated carbon, resulting in predictable performance and reliable estimated lifespan. For crops where plants are in bloom for long weeks, this stability is key to keeping odors under control from start to finish of the cycle.

How to choose the right Can Filters carbon filter for your crop

Choosing the correct Can Filters odor-neutralizing carbon filter involves first calculating the necessary extraction flow rate. You need to consider the volume of your tent or room (width x length x height) and the recommended air exchange rate, which is usually several exchanges per minute in cannabis crops. From there, you choose a filter whose flow rate (m³/h) matches or preferably slightly exceeds that of the extractor to give the carbon time to do its job.

At Pevgrow, you have a specific category of air extractors for indoor cultivation that you can combine with Can Filters. Ideally, the filter should support slightly more flow than the extractor (for example, a 600 m³/h extractor with a 700–800 m³/h filter), so that the air passes more slowly through the carbon bed and odor removal is more effective.

The physical size of the filter also matters: in small tents, you might be interested in a compact Can-Lite model, while in large grow rooms or setups with multiple lights, larger diameter and length filters are recommended. In the grow tents section, you will find different sizes of grow boxes and can get an idea of the actual volume of each space to accurately size your Can Filters carbon filter.

Installation of Can Filters in extraction and ventilation systems

The typical installation of a Can Filters carbon filter in indoor cultivation involves placing it at the top of the tent or room, connected directly to the extractor's intake using appropriate ventilation tubes. This way, the hot, odor-laden air is channeled through the filter, the carbon retains the odoriferous compounds, and the extractor expels a clean, odor-free airflow to the outside.

At Pevgrow, you have access to a complete category of extraction and ventilation for indoor cultivation, which includes flexible ducts, silencers, and accessories so you can create a sealed and quiet circuit around your Can Filters. A good setup reduces pressure losses, minimizes noise, and prevents odor leaks from poorly sealed joints.

If you are looking for a nearly “plug and play” solution, you can also opt for a kit that already includes a carbon filter, extractor, and tube, ideal for medium-sized tents. The harvesting, drying, and conservation category also integrates odor-neutralizing filters and ventilation, designed to control aromas during drying, a phase where odors can easily spike if air is not managed well.

Maintenance and lifespan of Can Filters carbon filters

Although Can Filters odor-neutralizing carbon filters are designed to last many months, their performance is not infinite. Over time, the activated carbon becomes saturated and loses its adsorption capacity, so it is advisable to replace the filter when you start to notice odors outside the crop, even with the system running. The actual lifespan will depend on factors such as humidity, odor intensity, and daily usage hours.

To maximize the lifespan of your Can Filters, it is essential to keep the pre-filter sleeve clean, which is usually washable or replaceable. This cover retains dust, lint, and dirt before they enter the carbon, preventing its pores from clogging. Additionally, it is advisable to properly size the ventilation system and not to overload the filter beyond its nominal flow rate so that the air has time to “contact” the carbon and the filtration is effective.

If you choose to refill rechargeable filters or complement your setup with loose carbon, Pevgrow also offers solutions of activated carbon for odor-neutralizing filters in different formats, designed to keep the cultivation environment always under control and with the maximum level of discretion possible.

Frequently asked questions about Can Filters carbon filters

What sets Can Filters apart from other odor-neutralizing carbon filters?

Can Filters carbon filters stand out for their thick granular carbon bed, which offers superior adsorption capacity and a longer lifespan. Additionally, the brand works with high-quality activated carbon and optimized designs to maintain a low pressure drop, facilitating the extractor's work and ensuring a stable airflow.

How often should I change a Can Filters carbon filter?

There is no exact figure for all crops, but as a guideline, many growers renew their odor-neutralizing carbon filters every 12–18 months of continuous use. Factors such as humidity, plant density in bloom, and the number of daily operating hours can slightly shorten or extend this timeframe; the best indicator will always be the appearance of odor outside the crop.

How do I size the Can Filters filter relative to the extractor?

The most advisable thing is for the maximum flow rate of the Can Filters carbon filter to be equal to or slightly higher than that of the extractor. If, for example, your extractor moves 800 m³/h, it is advisable to choose a filter of 800–1,000 m³/h so that the air circulates a bit more slowly through the carbon and the odor removal is more efficient. Remember that oversizing the filter is always safer than undersizing it.

Can I use Can Filters in small grow tents?

Yes, the range includes compact models like Can-Lite that fit perfectly in small and medium-sized tents. You just need to ensure that the filter diameter and flow rate are compatible with the extractor installed in your tent and that you have enough bars or anchor points to hang the assembly.

Is a carbon filter enough to eliminate all odors from the crop?

A good Can Filters odor-neutralizing carbon filter that is well-sized and correctly installed is usually sufficient to neutralize almost all odors from the crop. However, in very large setups or under extreme humidity and temperature conditions, some growers complement the system with ozone generators or neutralizing gels in specific areas. The important thing is that the filter is the main core of the odor treatment and that the airflow circuit is completely sealed.
