Whats the sense of having air conditioning if ur gonna constantly be exchanging the air?

If hes somewhere real warm....its not gonna do much good if ur pumpin in 90+deg "fresh" air from outside.

You can run all the AC you want. But if you arent getting all the hot air out of the room and replacing it with cooler air from outside the room then you are just chasing your tail. A lot of peeps undervalue the importance of adequate air exchange.

What are the room dimensions/total cubic ft of volume? Once we know that we can work on getting your ventilation issue in check. Also need to know the CFM ratings on both your 8 & 6" fans.

I am going to move this thread from the introduction forum to the grow room design forum. You can pick it up from there.

poster above knows his air flow. He made some good points. I will add that it is imperative to efficient ventilation that your exhaust intake is at the top of the room as we all know hot air rises and collects at the ceiling level.

Those DE fixtures are hotter than hades and the sooner you can exhaust this initial output of heat from the DE's is going to help a lot. Sometimes by 2-8 deg F

You gave me the square footage measurements with length times width. This gives SF floor area but not cubic ft. I also need nominal ceiling height to factor total cubic feet of volume so we can size you ventilation system. What is your ceiling height from guessing from your pic I would say 8-9 ft???
