It's my understanding the intrinsic properties of carbon is based on the source material. So if they have a good quality source of carbon (highest quality virgin carbon doesn't really tell a guy much, the "virgin" part means that it's a freshly mined material (not recycled/reused,) it should hold up to the job! :Hookah: All scrubbers' life span and effectiveness are determined by the impurities being filtered through though! A cleaner room with less impurities (other than your cannabis odors) is going to, at least based on science and math, be easier for the scrubber to purify than a room filled with, say cigarette smoke. The more impurities you expose in the environment, the more will be trapped by the carbon but thus rendering it less effective for the things you do want it filtering.
I'm working on an in-depth guide for Carbon Scrubbers; been contacting manufacturers trying to sort through their fluff. :Sharing One:
If you look at the orange sticker in the top corner of the box it says something like 'RC 4/12 certified carbon' does this tell the quality of the carbon?
I've only used 2 types in the past,my first was a Buddha which cost £17 and lasted no more than 6 months I then went Rhine Pro which seem to last 18 months. The 100mm Rhinos are about £40 the same as Phresh and the Red Scorpion in trying, in due to change my other rooms soon so looking forward to your thread.
Thanks for the advice bro gonna have to tickle u with some rep.
