Indoor Silencer or not?

[Athlete]

Hey people!

I am starting my first indoor grow in May and I am therefore purchasing a tent. Since I don't have unlimited funds I have looked into buying a complete package (as I have found decent deal):

http://www.growland-hydroponics.com/Kinggreen-Growbox-Set-80x80x180cm-250-Watt

This comes with a Systemair RVK Extractor Fan 184m³ 100mm. Does this produce a lot of noise? I live in a tiny space with my girlfriend and I need something that does not annoy her 18 hours a day (if possible).

In case this fan is very noisy, should I buy a silencer like this: http://www.growland-hydroponics.com/Systemair-Silencer-R-100mm/4inch-Length-600mm
or one like this
http://www.growland-hydroponics.com/Mini-Silencer-30cm-R100mm ?

I could also go with one of each, one for the inside, and one for the outside. Please tell me what you guys think.

Thank you loads!

Nothing? No one?
Since I know absolutely jack about indoor growing I would really appreciate any advice or past experience you'd want to share.

Don't expect it to quiet your fan, it will only reduce the noise of the air entering the ducting if you use a duct. Better to buy a larger fan and a speed control, you will move the same amount of air and reduce fan noise

Aloha Athlete~
Happy for you that you're starting a grow, but I have no idea about a silencer (I just wanted to welcome you to growing, ya know?). I'm lucky that I can make all the noise I want and don't care if I smell the whole place up with the fresh scent of fresh herbs, so I'm glad pop22 jumped in.

That set up looks pretty cool. My first grow I bought a pre-made-set-up bc I needed (wanted) it quick. Now I see that I can get all the stuff, better quality, for as much or less. You have till May so you can take your time a little.

so... the only advice I can give you and stand behind (bc I'mma chef :Medibles is:

*don't fry chicken or bacon naked.

Thanks guys! pop22, do you have any experience with acoustic boxes or other ways to reduce fan noise? Since this is a set I am purchasing and my funds are limited I am thinking of ways to stay with this set-up and still reduce the sound.

Haha Hapa. Thanks! I am also a chef and I can also give you a piece of advice: Smoke up and get creative in the kitchen

Any ideas for reduction of noise would be appreciated

Also, if I decide to purchase the entire set-up with the Systemair RVK Extractor Fan 184m³ 100mm and additionally buy a speed control, would I be able to run it at 50-75% considering that my tent would only be 80 x 80 x 180 CM (1.15 cubic meters) (would be 2 feet 7½ inches x 2 feet 7½ inches x 5 feet and 10.8 inches). I live in a cold climate in the northern hemisphere where temperatures rarely exceed 30 degrees C (86 F).

I hope this does not get too technical. As I said, I am a complete beginner when it comes to indoor growing - my dad is a hippie who taught me to grow in the wild

Peace and thank you all!
