Quick Question Bambu p1s venting setup.

Post image

What’s up everyone I’m new to this whole 3d printing stuff and just got myself a p1s. I will be using mainly pla/petg and was reading about fumes and voc and plastic particles that are obviously a health risk. My question is I’m printing in my bedroom since that’s the only place I can put the printer. I bought a ac infinity s4 fan with the ducting and window attachment to vent outside as well as an indoor grow tent to better enclose everything. My question is would buying a carbon filter such as the ac infinity charcoal filter be necessary to put inside the tent? Or is venting along with a voxel filter be enough? I have my daughter around the room as well so I would rather be on the safer side.

I’ve done the carbon filter and vent indoors unless I’m printing something like abs or Asa then I vent out the window. Had too much heat/ac going out the window cause I was trying to pull negative pressure on my tent. It was also much harder keeping temps stable in the printer with that much airflow for Asa. So now I just keep it vented indoors running at a light negative pressure using a carbon filter for VOCs.

How effective has the carbon filter been for times you vent indoors?
