Recommended Posts

Pretty sure I’ve read that someone has done this, if you’ve done it,how did you go about putting a hole in your soil pipe and are there any drawbacks?

OK, I'm really confused now. Why would you extract air through a pipe where waste water goes :unsure: There's many other places you can exhaust your extraction to that don't have that kind of complication. I'm proper confused now, seems like the worst possible way to extract. As long as you've got proper filtration it doesn't really matter where you extract the air to oustide if it doesn't smell of weed :unsure:

 

I'll shut the fuck up now cos it's mashed my head lol

 

E2A Sorry, I'm a fool and an eejit ;)

I'd rather exhaust it into a room with a dehumidifier than mess about with venting it into the plumbing lol

 

The drawback I can think of is backflow and ending up with a grow room full of sewage lol

When your poo goes out back of your bog it hits a T-junction 

Water and waste goes down to sewer 

Gas and smell goes up through soil breather pipe

see my posts, it's vented, it has a vent 'stack' i think they call it, it could connect one part of the house where you can't vent to the roof
