Heat issue with 350 xml and 200w Diamond Series led cooling room tent is in with 12000 BTU window unit room temp is about 70f grow tent is 89 90f have a stand up oscillating fan and a window fan with 2 smaller fans in it for the bottom of tent my fan pulling cold air in is 200cfmand fan pulling hot air out is 400 CFM with 400cfm filter I'm not using yet kuc I'm trying to dial in the temps in my grow room without cutting down on wattage don't think the 350 XML in the 4 x 4 tent alone will do very good but how can I drop temps to at least 81..I hurd they make ac that hook to your fans blowing air fresh air in tent.. hate to cut hole in wall and tent just to keep it cool .. any ideas don't take a lot of my time frozen milk jugs are to hard to keep up with I had to do it my last worked great but took to much space and worklol
 
Try separating a paragraph or using sentences at least, I can't read a big runon paragraph easily with my brain injuries. If your room is 70 and the tent won't get below 90 then you either have positive pressure problem in the tent or the fan isn't exchanging the air fast enough for some reason. How exactly do you have it set up, i.e. fan inside tent blowing air out through a duct and the filter, filter inside with fan pulling air through duct and filter?
Do the sides of your tent suck in when zipped up?

it's sucking tent in... filter is in tent and fan pulling air. Through tent is on top of tent hooked to a vent and blowing back in to room but room is cool ac is over sized because of tent... And the fan pulling air in tent is in side tent... Was thinking about giving $235 for a 800btu floor ac venting it to attic and putting a 200cfm filter on it to kill some smell if any
 
550 watts of led shouldn't make your room that hot, sounds like some other issue, got any pics of setup?
 
Fans and humidifiers etc make heat, you can take the intake fan outside of your tent to remove a little extra heat.
 
Duct the a.c. air directly into your tent, the exhaust with separate fan. Sounds like your not bringing in enough cool air. Also toss a fan in the room.and blow on the leds. It should help dissipate some of the heat it will put off.
 
I got a portable AC that I'ma leave sitting outside of the tent and then I'm going to duct it into the intake and I think problems should be solved with or without AC running inside my bedroom
 
Yup
fab it up like this and you'll be set

2nd pic is my old LG 14k btu single hose portable.

You must exhaust the a.c. outside.

There really ain't shit behind my house but a big ass moutan but has 1 house on it and it's a old bitch worried about that looking suspect when the hot air is steaming up the cold air out side
 
Vent into your attic, most houses have an access port that runs from the attic to basement if you have one.

Don't want to burn ac up running duct that far plus the closet I'm growing is was a add on and there is no access to it from attic

I run 25' of 6" r8 flex duct for my portable a.c.. I do however have a 6" 440cfm ho fan on a speed controller to help the exhaust outside.


I'm a basement setting. I don't have any way to dump into my attic. Do NOT tap into the houses h20 tank or furnace exhaust. It can backflow carbon monoxide and kill everyone in the house.

Here she is all set up temps still dropping... I'ma hook my ac up to a thrmo cube it comes on at 78 and goes off at 75.. it's not very accurate tho truly comes on at like 79 and off at 73 lol hope the temps jumping up and down don't stress them out.. I used the cube my last grow to pull cold air from out side in the winter and it did great
.. btw how much dose your ac run up your power bill
