A filtration system is arranged to safely vent a storage room into which a fog mixture is introduced. Venting the storage room reduces and/or prevents a substantial increase in the internal pressure of the storage room. To control the pressure differential between the storage room and the ambient air pressure, a venting manifold with an in-line duct fan is used, for example, to exhaust storage room air into the atmosphere. The exhausted storage room air is filtered to reduce the exfiltration of chemicals and/or other contaminants from the environmentally sealed storage room.

1. A method for filtration, comprising: arranging fruits in a substantially closed room having a volume of air;introducing pyrimethanil, and optionally, additional treatment substances, into an airstream with a thermofogger gun to generate air-borne treatment substances at a rate of up to 40 cubic feet per minute;introducing the airstream and the air-borne treatment substances into the volume of air of the substantially closed room to generate the dispersed air-borne substances;creating with a fan a pressure between −0.15 and 0 inches water column upon a bank of six high particle-rated pleated fiber filters; andinducing an exhaust air current that flows from the substantially closed room into an exhaust port of the substantially closed room, wherein the exhaust air current includes the air-borne substances from the exhaust port and the filter bank captures around 95 percent of the air-borne treatment substances. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein ambient air is used as input to the thermofogger gun. 3. A method for filtration, comprising: arranging vegetables in a substantially closed room having a volume of air;introducing pyrimethanil, and optionally, additional treatment substances, into an airstream with a thermofogger gun to generate air-borne treatment substances at a rate of up to 40 cubic feet per minute;introducing the airstream and the air-borne treatment substances into the volume of air of the substantially closed room to generate the dispersed air-borne substances;creating with a fan a pressure between −0.15 and 0 inches water column upon a bank of six high particle-rated pleated fiber filters; andinducing an exhaust air current that flows from the substantially closed room into an exhaust port of the substantially closed room, wherein the exhaust air current includes the air-borne substances from the exhaust port and the filter bank captures around 95 percent of the air-borne treatment substances. 4. The method of claim 3, wherein ambient air is used as input to the thermofogger gun.
