Can-Lite 10 Inch: 1500 CFM of Odor Control for Mid-Size Rooms
This is the 10-inch filter in the Can-Lite line from Can-Filters, part number 700592. It is rated for a recommended maximum of 1500 CFM through a built-in 10-inch flange. The body measures 14 inches across and 40 inches tall. Inside sits a 2-inch bed of 100% Australian granular activated carbon, about 35.4 lbs of it. The complete filter weighs 48 lbs. That is light for a filter of this capacity, thanks to aluminum top and bottom caps. The shell is 51% open perforation, so air reaches the full height of the carbon bed. A pre-filter sleeve comes fitted. Can-Filters assembles the line at its plant in Vancouver, Washington. At this size and weight, plan on a proper ceiling anchor or a floor stand rather than tent bars.
Choosing a Fan for a Canlite Filter This Size
A canlite filter only controls odor when the fan behind it stays within its rating. For exhaust, Can-Filters recommends its Can-Fan 10-inch HO or a Q-Max 10-inch on speed 1. For recirculating inside a sealed room, it lists the Max-Fan 10-inch or a Q-Max 10-inch on speeds 2 and 3. Running a much larger fan pushes air through the carbon too quickly for it to adsorb odor. Mount the filter where the room air is warmest and most fragrant, usually high on the exhaust side. Keep duct runs short and avoid tight bends. Humid rooms load the carbon faster, so run dehumidification before the filter, not after. Change the pre-filter sleeve on a schedule, since a clogged sleeve starves the whole carbon bed.
