@willow, so long as your fan is pulling air out and through the carbon fan faster than it can be replaced in the room you will create whats known as negative air pressure or a vacuum, this will stop air from leaking out of the room because it is always trying to suck in air rather than expel it. You shouldn't push air through your filter, rather you should place the filter in the room up high and pull air through it and then out of the room, this is the way the filters are designed to be used. To be doubly sure that you have no smell leaks, line the room in poly and seal all seams with technical tape or aluminum tape NOT duct tape, duct tape sucks, it is not designed to be used as a vapor barrier tape and this is essentially what you are trying to create more or less. Technical tape, also known as tech tape is THE best tape you can use for this application and is sold at all hardware stores, it is usually red and somewhat see through, just ask the dude at the counter for it. Tell him you are siding your house and need something to seal the vapor barrier or just tell him to shut up and mind his own business, lol the latter will most likely cause you more problems and suspicion than just being nice.
@tito, if you want your port box (this is what the box is called you will build) to be more stealthy what you can do is construct a box that is bigger than the width of your window by one foot on each side and make it about a foot or two deep, paint it a non reflective colour like black or whatever you think will be the least noticeable. Cut your vents on the sides of the box so that they can't be seen when looking at the window straight on. Hang this from the roof with sturdy chain and hooks designed to handle the weight. Then create a seal around the edge of the box using tech tape or whatever you have available, make sure it is air tight, also be sure that both sides can't share air or leak into one another. Just a heads up if you put tech tape or pretty much any strong bonding tape on your walls it will remove the paint/wallpaper or whatever when you try to take it off, you could make a sealed room like I outlined above and tape it to that instead to save your walls but thats your choice. This way the vents and fans are hidden from the outside.
