Ok so I am looking at a warehouse space that is roughly 25x50 14' ceilings. It is going to be tricky for me to make this work. I cant put any condensers outside the building and it has to be stealth from the outside. It looks like my only ventalation is from the gas heater that has what looks like a 4" vent to the roof. This would be my only way to exchange air from the warehouse. How ever I am in a very cold climate and the back 1/2 of the space is underground.
I want to build 2 side by side rooms to run on a flip flop with 6 to 9kw each
air will be constantly circulated between both rooms 1 lights on 1 lights off
Each room will be roughly 10x15 8 ft ceilings
I want to use a 5 ton a/c to cool the bare bulbs
All ballasts chillers exc will be outside the grow space
I want build the sealed rooms inside the warehouse and use the ac condenser to heat the rest of the garage
So the warehouse is 17,500 cu ft
the 2 sealed rooms 2500 cu ft
that leaves 15,000 cu ft for the 5 ton condenser, chillers, ballasts, exc to heat
Will this work? Is there a way to figure out how hot the rest of the warehouse will get?
I believe that gideon is doing something similar and it is working for him, he says his garage gets pretty hot but works great.
Here is the annual climate where im at.
I might be able to get a 200 cfm exhaust fan through the existing gas heater to pull cold air in from cracks in the overhead garage door and blow it out the roof. probably wont be much help at all but with a carbon filter will help keep negative pressure on my unit
Im hoping some cooling experts can help me figure this out.
thanks
