Yes i know but electrical draw on fans is minimal costs, and u wont be continuously sucking the air out of the tent, which might be dialed in the way u want, example humidity, temp, or c02.Yea but pulling air from insde the tent through the lights and out the tent requires only 1 large fan instead of 2 fans one cooling lights and one running your filter. Then you have to have a 3rd fan for intake. Since I have 8' hoods I am using a large filter and just 1 725 cfm inline fan. I just want to exit my hot air somewhere other then back inside my room, which worked for winter, but now its too warm.
Not an expert. But I tried it thru the attic for the first few weeks and it immediately smelled of attic dust throughout the house. So I vented it out a window and the smell went away.I recently redesigned my tent with( 2) 8' hoods and (2) 600 hps. I am exhuasting air through an 8' carbon filter with a Hydrofarm 725 cfm fan on top of filter, then routed out through my 2 lights and out of tent.
I have a 7x7x7 tent in a spare bedroom. I have a 400 cfm fan pulling air into tent through a window. This was working well through Winter, but now temps are too hot and I need to vent that air out of there. I bought an 8'elbow and mounted up towards ceiling (pictured). My next step is to cut an 8' hole in the ceiling and mount vent going up?
Question, for anyone who has dones this, how does it work out venting in attic, any condensation, mold or anything from all the heat?
Thanks

Good god man, you pot a hole in the ceiling!Not an expert. But I tried it thru the attic for the first few weeks and it immediately smelled of attic dust throughout the house. So I vented it out a window and the smell went away.
glad I realized the attic thing was not goodBe careful with that type of venting. Ide check at some point up there to make sure your not causing a mold issue. Once it sets in it keeps growing and when you go to sell it’ll cost you a ton of money to fix it.
lol...this is my newest setup. I have the room sealed off including dry wall over the window and a no-light curtain overlapped and pinned. My temps stay about 1 degree warmer than the room...about 76 - 77. Got a hell of a suction going on with the tent with a passive intake. My battle now is tryiGood god man, you pot a hole in the ceiling!

Sweet, nice set up! Can you hard line the duct work? It’s way more efficient then flexible ducting.lol...this is my newest setup.

my setup now...
I was thinking the exact same thing1575cfm 8" inline at harbor freight for $75 (shhh, don't tell anybody)
Vent into attic = moisture probs
I have 1 extractor with my filter in the tent, the extractor sucks in through the filter then it blows through my light cool tube/good then blowers out the tent, so im blwoing air through it with same extractor don't suck it out the light as that heat for a through your fan and can be bad for it,Yea but pulling air from insde the tent through the lights and out the tent requires only 1 large fan instead of 2 fans one cooling lights and one running your filter.

I haven't done it...if i had an attic i wouldn't be tempted to do so especially if your lights are on during the night.I recently redesigned my tent with( 2) 8' hoods and (2) 600 hps.
