Can Lite Carbon Filter GT 150 (100mm / 125mm Flange)

What does the Can Lite Carbon Filter GT 150 remove?

It removes odours and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), including strong grow smells like terpenes. The included pre-filter also captures dust and lint, but it won't remove humidity, mould spores, or function as a full air purifier.

What fan should I pair with the Can Lite Carbon Filter GT 150?

Choose an inline fan with real-world airflow close to 150 m³/h. Oversized fans can reduce odour control if airflow is too fast. Use a fan speed controller to fine-tune performance and maintain negative pressure.

How do I install the Can Lite Carbon Filter GT 150?

Mount it high inside your grow tent, connect it to an inline fan, and exhaust air out. Ensure airflow pulls through the filter, duct joins are sealed, and slight negative pressure is maintained to prevent odour leaks.

What size tent and ducting is the Can Lite Carbon Filter GT 150 designed for?

It's ideal for small to mid-sized grow tents using 100mm or 125mm ducting. Choose the flange size that matches your fan. The filter is compact (approx. 250mm long) and lightweight (1.2kg), making it suitable for tight spaces or stealth grows.

Can I use this filter in high humidity or drying rooms?

Yes, but keep humidity below 70% to avoid performance drop. It’s suitable for drying tents as long as moisture is controlled. Avoid soaking conditions or using it in open environments like greenhouses.

How long does the Can Lite Carbon Filter GT 150 last?

Lifespan depends on airflow, humidity, and odour load. With clean conditions and moderate use, it lasts a long time. If you notice smells returning, reduced airflow, or the need for higher fan speeds, it’s likely time to replace it.

How do I clean and maintain the filter?

Keep the pre-filter clean—wash it gently and dry it completely before reinstalling. Never wash the carbon itself. Check for duct leaks, maintain humidity, and clean regularly to extend lifespan.

Why is there still smell with the filter installed?

Common causes include airflow that’s too fast, leaky ducting, high humidity, or a worn-out filter. Make sure the system is sealed, running under negative pressure, and within the filter’s capacity.

What’s included with the Can Lite Carbon Filter GT 150?

It comes with a pre-filter sleeve and a flange suited to your selected size (100mm or 125mm). The filter uses Australian granulated carbon and features a 25mm carbon bed for effective odour control.

Should I run the Can Lite Carbon Filter GT 150 24/7?

If you need constant smell control, running it 24/7 is common. You can also run it on a timer or controller during high-odour periods, but be aware odours may build during off times.
