Flanged Spigot Square Plate

Flanged Spigot Square Plate

Flanged Spigot Square Plate is used to fix to a flat surface such as a wall or door and slots inside ducting.  Attach ducting to the Flanged Spigot Square Plate as it exits a room. Manufactured from galvanized mild steel.

This handy bit of kit is used for connecting ducting to any wall or surface you choose. It literally is a hole with a flange around it for fixing to the wall and for attaching ducting to. As simple as that!

Use clamps or aluminium tape to connect ducting to spigot.

The reason for ventilating a grow room is simple; plants need fresh air. Therefore, every grow-op requires air exchange. That means cool, fresh air in, and stale, hot air out. Too many growers get ventilation wrong and encounter all kinds of problems later in the grow. Bugs, fungi, and mold love a hot, humid environment with poor airflow. Like it or not, ventilation is essential to cultivation.

Outdoors, the wind naturally circulates air so plants can grow healthy and strong. A light breeze strengthens stems and helps plant leaves transpire. Plus, it makes it that much more difficult for creepy crawlies to take up residence in the garden. If you are growing indoors, you must control airflow and maintain air exchange artificially.

Garland Large High Dome Propagator

Garland Large High Dome Propagator 2022

Garland Large High Dome Propagator is a very popularly sized unit using a standard seed tray as a base designed by Garland. The base does not have drainage holes, and the cover features an easy to adjust ‘dial’ ventilation hole.

The lid is Injection molded in crystal clear shatter resistant material. The Garland Large Dome Propagator is an unheated high dome propagator which is perfect for cuttings because of the high dome.

Dimensions – 37.5cm (l) x 23cm (w) x 18cm (h)

This is a Premium range of propagation, all made from high quality recycled plastics. These items are super strong and durable, with thicker wall sections offering extra rigidity.. The trays are easy to clean and can even be put in a dishwasher. Although injection molded trays are generally more expensive than vacuum formed equivalents, they will easily last for 10 years or more.

Aluminium Tape 50m Roll

Aluminium Tape

Aluminium Tape 50m Roll is highly reflective. Aluminium Tape is very useful in that once you stick it down it will not fall off  when exposed to moisture rich environments.

50 m roll, 5 cm wide.

Aluminium tape is particularly effective for joining or sticking down Mylar or Sisalation or joining ducting pieces together.

Siliconised release backing paper needs to be peeled off before use.

  • Conformable tape resists flame, moisture, weather, UV degradation and many chemicals, making it ideal for a variety of applications
  • Heat and light reflective tape protects, insulates and enhances lighting efficiency
  • Withstands a wide temperature range
  • Thermally conductive tape helps dissipate heat and improves heating and cooling efficiency
  • Transparent acrylic adhesive combined with the rugged, durable backing provides long service life both indoors and out.

Clamps

Clamps
Clamps are a  simple solution for connecting ducting to Inline Fans, Carbon Filter, Ducting Splitters or Air Cooled Reflectors. Fitted with a worm screw, tighten with a screw driver in a few seconds.  Clamps provide a secure connection, ensuring your extraction system remains securely connected.
The Clamps are made from strong, Stainless Steel  They are super easy to install and will last you for many grows to come. To install a clamp, you simple screw it open wide enough to fit over the end of your ducting, slip your ducting over the Fan/Reflector/Carbon Filter’s flange and screw it closed to ensure your ducting is fastened on tightly.

Available in a few different sizes to suit all ducting sizes. They are an efficient, cost effective method of joining ventilation equipment.

Clamp Sizes:

14-32mm (for larger water pumps)
95-121mm
133-159mm
197-222mm
241-267mm
286-311mm

PLEASE NOTE: 14-32mm Clamps are Stainless Steel, for use under water.

315mm clamping info

Clamps are an adjustable steel band that the user tightens with a screw. Most people generally know this kind of fitting as a Jubilee Clip which is often in the plumbers tool box. The premise is the same just on a bigger scale to suit ducting, not water pipes. The worm gear that adjusts the tightness allows a secure connection between ducting and fan or filter.

Many growers use ducting clamps in combination with Aluminium tape. This makes an even stronger join with advantages of both. The tape has a bigger surface area for joining and can go round and round as many times as you want. It can degrade after a while though so the Ducting Clamp will increase holding power of the join.

Compared with sleeve bearing, ball bearing has the following advantages:  Long life, low maintenance, low temperature compatibility.

How to work out the size and type of fan required:
In order to provide adequate ventilation for a given application, it is essential the
correct size, type and number of units are selected. Selection of the correct fan depends on two
principal factors: the performance and application.
Step 1
step1
Determine which mounting arrangements meet your requirements
Step 2
step2
Calculate the VOLUME of the room in cubic meters (m3) by multiplying the length x width x height.
Step 3
How many air changes (AC/H) are required. Work out how fast one complete ‘air change’ needs to be carried out under warm conditions (i.e. the maximum you will ever need the fan to operate).If excess heat in a certain growing environment is a common problem, or there is a large volume of plants growing in a very restricted space you will need more air flow per hour than for a larger growing area which doesn’t suffer from too much heat build up with smaller plants. Growers commonly underestimate just how much ‘air exchange’ is required to remove excess heat and humidity, bring in fresh CO2 and generally create fresh air movement over all of the plant surfaces. As a comparison to greenhouse crops growing in full sunlight – one air change per minute or 60 air changes an hour are often aimed for with large, mature crops growing under warm, humid conditions. However, in a grow room situation, one complete air change obtained in 4-5 minutes is acceptable. Obviously this needs to be more frequent (one complete air change in 2-3 minutes) where lighting is creating a lot of extra heat to be removed or when a CO2 generator is being used.
Step 4
Use the following formula: Volume (m3) x AC/H = Airflow (m3/h)

Step 5
Select a fan that does the airflow you require.
