John,will one of the new 26 seer mitsu hyper heat units handle 1-1k (non air cooled)and a couple t-5s in a well insulated(r19)8'x8' veg room,So cal 100+ summer high,25-30 low winters?

like this one.
Lol,yeah i know,but 26 seer?gotta love it,All the damn hyper heats are $$ but its only 130 more than the 21 seer.I could easily throw a 1k in but im worried its overkill for such a small space.
in a completely sealed 8x14 area with 7ft ceilings and 4k watts what would u suggest as a good place to start looking for adequate AC units? (size?).. i remember hearing at one point 3k btu's for 1 1kwatt light? is that right or is that way off?
also i have 2 6 inch fans cooling the 4k in magnumxxl;'s (2 per 6 inch vortex)
also i see some ac's have dehueys built in so to say.. do you think thatd be sufficient?
I bought a 2ton kilimaire minisplit. But on the side where the serial number is it also has a "cooling" chart and it says 22,000BTUS. I thought a 2ton was supposed to be 24,000btus?
I have (6) 1000watters in a sealed room, I am air cooling them and blowing the heat off them, but the heat is not being blown out of the room. Also have c02. It is working so far...but am i stressing the mini split too much?
Man kinda slow in the A/C thread,just wait until we start seeing some 90's this place will be jumping,lol.
Hey John, fantastic contribution man. Im in so cal, semi coastal setting up a garage. 4000w air cooled lights/sealed room in a room /insulated/1060 cf, chillers ran outside the room/ pumps ran outside of the room/ not set on what type of dehuey yet (if I cant get a santa fe compact 2 70 l per day, than just a cheapo 60 lpd until i can) but that will be in the room. the garage gets hot as fuck even though outside isnt that hot.
I would either have a 18,000 btu mini split or a 12,000.
the condenser unit will be inside the garage, outside of the grow room. it will be placed near the 4 chillers and pumps.
my questions:
should i pull air into the garage with my 8" vortex and pipe it out behind the heat exchanger of the mini split, blowing fresh air against it, while having a passive exhaust vent high on wall?
or,
should i pipe a passive intake via 8" ducting to the back of the heat exchanger and then push air out through the highest point in the ceiling via my 8" vortex?
or,
should i have fans on both the intake and exhaust?
shit man im sorry if this post sounds convoluted and overly complex. But It would be great to get some help on this. maybe I'm just being overly concerned, but my issue is obviously allowing enough air to cool the split and to not pump in too much air or suck out too much air and mess with my sealed rooms.
ok thanks for the help John. was he venting the air in his garage?
haha not venting, I meant bringing air in with fans. I cannot have my condenser outside. i'm putting up radiant barrier in the rafters and insulating the garage door. my question was should i blow air via 8" can max fan to the intake side of the condenser unit or suck the hot air out from the vent side of the condenser.
