Look for a 2 ton dual zone Mr Slim. Or get a 2 ton single zone. Put air handler in flower and use 2 themrostatically controlled fans in wall between rooms. Use these fans to remove hot air and add cool air from flower to veg room. 2nd option is probably cheapestI need help choosing a mini split for my new grow op(insulated 24x24 detached garage). Turning one half of it into a flower room(roughly 22x11 room) with 8 to 10 315w cmh/lec lights. The 2nd half will be a multi purpose+veg room with a pair of T5 fixtures.
I've been told i need units in the range of 18k btu all the way up to 36k... Also should i look into dual zone units for having heads in each half of the garage, 1 for veg/misc room and 1 for flower room? OR just 1 in flower?
I currently work in an op with 20 315w lec's, cooled by a 2.5ton Mr. Slim. Granted it's in a cool basement AND the flower rooms are passively cooled from a neighboring room where the mini split head is located. And not to digress but there are a few problems with that design. So I kinda feel like it's apples and oranges compared to what I want to do here.
I'm in Michigan where summers are hot and winters are COLD. Any advice /opinions would be appreciated!
Also shout out to @CannabisJohn for the wealth of knowledge and info articulated here!
Awesome thanks, i was gonna wait till i got a respinse from him to ask ,but if you are reffering ill wait till the morn and give him a message. Thanks again bro, i have two five tons but havent dealt with mini splitsId go with a 36k btu mitsubishi mr slim myself,the little extra will come in handy when its 110 and will probably be pretty much the same or close on electrical as the 30,000btu.PM cannabis john hes the best installer for so cal and gets good deals on equipment too.

3 ton Mr Slim is a great choice.
Hello, I am in need of some help with increasing my humidity in my garden. I have 10 1000w lights and 5ton heatpump air conditioner. I have a problem in early bloom with humidity being too low. when I run a 80 F canopy my humidity can drop as low as 27%. when the 5 ton kicks on it just sucks all the moisture out. my question is, is there a humidifier that I can hook up to the ac that will put enough moisture in the air to maintain 65% RH?
Calls for 9 tons ac or 8 minimum but if it was me 9 tons.so 3 x 3 ton minisplit or for conventional a 5 ton and a 4 ton. Mitsubishi are the best mini splits,Lennox,Trane,carrier are good conventionals,I run good man for about 6 years now no issues with grow room conditions.Hi. I'm building a new grow room
It's 26 by 16
I'm running 18 double ended lights 1000 watt and all the bells and whistles that go with that
I'm in SoCal. How much cooling do I need? Should I go with mini splits or split ac.
I'm leaning toward split ac. What brands are the best??
Thanks
Yes you do!There are a few minis out there that come with sealed linesets that you supposedly dont need to purge but they are junk for the most part.Pre charged just means the charge is already in the unit but you must first purge the lineset with nitrogen and a deep vacume before releasing the refrigerant into them.Pretty sure someone asked this already, too many pages to read through. I just bought a Pre-charged Senville 36000k Mini split and I would like to know if I have to vacuum the lines after installation or it is not needed.... thanks!
