Hey guys,
I need a little help here. I've decided to grow in my closet with a 1000watt MH/HPS. I have a 6” 440CFM inline fan and a 400CFM carbon filter all which have yet to be delivered but are on there way. At first I thought that I was going to be in great shape with this setup but now I'm thinking that heat is still going to be an issue after doing more research about venting. The closet is 7'6” x 5'7” x 3' so about 125cubic feet. Id be replacing the air about 3.5 times a minute in there. I'm worried that the fan wont be able to vent the room and Light together that the light will heat up and still bring the temp up to high. Any reassuring thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.

Carbon filter> Fan>Ducting>Light>Ducting exhausting into attic

Itll work just fine... a 400cfm will keep an open hood 1k cool enough in a 5x5x7..(thats bypassing the hood too)... dont bother with a fan controller... run it full blast. 24/7 and save up for an extra blower and buy it to have on standby... these blowers will run 24/7 for years straight.
