a lil info i got the ac to cool down my flower room that was all ways in the 90s it is the room next to it so the ac blows damn near right in to it

the air that is pulling over the bulbs comes from a hole another room that is shut off to the grow room just a door

Okay is that air pulling over your bulbs also drawing air out of your grow room?

If your AC unit is working correctly it should be blowing air out of it at approximately 43 degrees. The condenser is probably not getting enough fresh air flow with the setup on the back

The air flow to the back of the unit is restricted too much

it goes duct from other room to the fan duct to the lights then out side the room no air in that room is getting sucked out

i used to have the fan sucking the air from in side the room then over the light but was told that fan was sucking all the cool air out of the room

The front of the unit where the air blows out and there is a filter that sucks the house air in ecirculates it across the evaporator and cools it again. The whole back of the AC unit is a separate thing and it needs tons of airflow. Also if your other unit is only blowing 62 degrees it could be that your condenser is full of dirt and you need to take a hose and clean it out in the back.

Okay let's not talk about your other house AC unit for now. The unit should be blowing 43 degrees or so working correctly. When it recirculates the same cold air from the house back through the front of the unit it makes it much easier for it to cool. But if the back part of the unit is not getting enough air flow it will not work that is exactly what it will do blow like 60-something degrees

If you have rain in high-humidity use your air conditioner has to work twice as hard and it is not as efficient. Let's talk about the way you have the back of your AC setup. Do you see how there are all those vents on the sides at the back of the unit. There is a fan in there that sucks air from those vent and pushes it out the back so if those vents are sucking air and they are not on the other side of a wall they will be sucking the air that is coming out of the front of your unit the cold air and spitting it out the back

No I think the problem is the way that the air conditioning system is set up.I see your picture. What you probably need to do is cut a hole in your grow room and stick the front of the air conditioner blowing in there and leaving the back out of it. Of course that hot air from the back has to go somewhere. But at least it won't be sucking your cold air coming out of the front and sucking it in the back. There are two fans on that one in the front that blows the cold air and one in the back that blows across the condenser and dissipates all the Heat
