Silent Extractor Kits: The Complete Solution for Discreet Extraction

A silent extractor kit guarantees you'll have all the compatible elements for efficient and discreet extraction in your grow space. No more headaches trying to assemble an extractor, filter, and ducting: everything is designed to work together without unwanted noise. These kits typically include a TT Silent extractor, a suitable carbon filter, and soundproof ducting, all sized for your grow area.

Why Choose a Silent Extractor Kit?

The main advantage is guaranteed compatibility between all components. When you choose the Pack Silent - Extractor M 150mm 550m3/h - ProActiv Carbon Filter 150mm 840m3/h, you know that the 550m3/h extractor is perfectly sized for the 840m3/h ProActiv filter. No risk of undersizing or excessive pressure drop.

In terms of discretion, that's where it makes all the difference. The TT Silent extractors included in these kits genuinely generate fewer vibrations than classic models, thanks to their quality bearings and anti-vibration design. Coupled with PhonicTrap ducting that absorbs airflow noise, you get an almost silent extraction system, even at night.

Another strong point is the cost savings. Buying components separately often costs 15-20% more than a complete kit. And frankly, you save a lot of installation time: everything fits together perfectly, diameters match, and flow rates are optimized.

How to Choose Your Silent Extractor Kit

The number one criterion is the volume of your grow space. For a 1m x 1m x 2m tent (i.e., 2m³), a kit like the Pack Silent - Extractor M 125mm 340m3/h - ProActiv Carbon Filter 125mm 400m3h is more than sufficient. The general rule: multiply the volume by 60 to get the minimum required airflow.

Next, consider the power of your lighting. For under 400W, a 125mm extractor will do the job. Beyond 600W, it's better to go with a 150mm to efficiently dissipate heat. The ducting diameter also affects pressure drop: the wider it is, the less the extractor has to work.

For installation, check that the kit includes the necessary clamps and ducting length. The Silent Extraction Pack - Extractor M 150mm 550m3/h - PhonicTrap Ducting 152mm - 3m - Clamp 125-175mm is perfect if you need 3 meters of ducting to reach your exhaust.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which silent extractor kit should I choose for a 1m x 1m x 2m tent with a carbon filter?

For 2m³, the 125mm kit with a 340m3/h extractor is perfect. It renews the air 170 times per hour, which is more than enough even with a carbon filter that reduces airflow by 20-30%. The TT Silent M 125mm extractor generates less than 35 dB, which is the level of a library. With the included PhonicTrap ducting, you can further reduce noise by 5-8 dB.

How do I install a silent extractor kit in my grow room to minimize vibrations?

Suspend the extractor with elastic straps rather than rigidly fixing it to the tent ceiling. Vibrations are transmitted less through straps than through a metal fixture. Place the extractor as far as possible from the tent walls, ideally in the center. Use anti-vibration clamps to secure the ducting, and avoid overly tight bends that create noisy turbulence.

Is this kit with TT Silent really quieter than an RVK with a soundproof box?

Yes, absolutely. A bare RVK generates 45-50 dB, and even with a soundproof box, you'll stay around 40 dB. The TT Silent M naturally goes down to 32-35 dB thanks to its optimized blades and precision bearings. Plus, no need for a bulky box: the extractor is already designed to be silent. The space-saving is significant in small areas.

How do I maintain the silencers and ducting of an extractor kit to keep them performing well?

Clean the carbon filter every 12-18 months depending on usage, or when you feel its efficiency decreasing. For PhonicTrap ducting, a vacuum cleaner every 6 months is enough to remove dust that accumulates in the cells. The TT Silent extractor requires little maintenance: just check that the blades rotate freely and that no debris is blocking the grille. A quick wipe with a damp cloth on the casing from time to time.

What power silent extractor kit for a 600W grow without making too much noise at night?

For a 600W grow, opt for a 150mm kit with a minimum 550m3/h extractor. The heat generated requires good air exchange, especially in summer. The advantage of the TT Silent M 150mm: even at full power, it stays below 38 dB. With a speed controller, you can reduce the speed at night when temperatures drop, and go down to 30 dB. That's quieter than a running refrigerator.
