what would you recommend on 2 1k air cooled hoods. And thanks for the reply!Purchase a mini split ac
There is no air exchange
100% use it
U need 6000 btu per non air cooled 1000 watt lamp
Yes on co2 . Burners are great if u have gas (not you your room)

I just ordered the step down autopilot. Yours has fuzzy logic and mine is just timer controlled...I would foam spray your rim joists, and any lines coning in and out your house. Make sure you get the fire retardant type to be up to code. I just got done doing mine. Also, great idea to use mildew/mold resistant flat paint on the walls. I just did mine. Seal the floor with garage epoxy coating. Don't use the elcheapo floor stuff. Mine peeled in 2 yrs, and stains with any water left sitting on it. I put 3 coats when I moved in. Spend the coin now, vs 2x as much later on and when your basement is empty, not full of stuff, plants, rooms.
I use an autopilot master greenhouse controller, same copy as my old blueprint dbac2 controller. I absolutely love it!
Dude all I can think about at work is you talking about pulling air in and black mold. Why do u think that happened? ??Buy the "green" boxed 2 stage kit for 360.00 from HD or Lowes. Must have outside and inside temps of 60* (reason why I couldn't use it).
Yes, fuzzy logic and I need a temp controll, as I adjust my temps during flower cycle.
Also, I tried pulling outside air in. I got black mold from it. Spent 2 weeks spraying bleach, scrubbing walls, wasting 300.00 and 6hrs of time installing and ripping it out my duct work. Then 2 days painting my walls (again), 3 days spraying my rim joists with foam, then 1 more day putting r30 faced insulation in the rim joists. This was all done with my basement filled, plants growing. Had about 2' max of work room on 3 walls. Major PITA. Now u have to seal the outside brick, as I'm getting moisture seepage at my glass block window area.
Had I know those was an issue, I would have done all this prior to moving in and setting up shop.
Just a heads up.
Window units push all the smell outside if you have neighbors that's not a good ideaI,m rebuilding mine now after a sewage line break put 2" of waste water in my basement. Mine is 8x12 and I'm going to run 4 600's with a 400 10,000k mh between each 2 600 hps .
Cooling for now will be 2 6" 400 cfm fans with the intention of adding a 8,000 btu window unit out my window well before I start to run my propane fired cO2 burner.
No neighbors, ran a 5,500 in my 4x8 out the same window well and never had a problem with smell leaking out of the unit. For the price of the mini-splits I can buy a 2 1/2 ton air handler/ heat pump and condenser unit for under a $1,000.Window units push all the smell outside if you have neighbors that's not a good idea

Me too. I rocked one all summer... And my room reeked.....but I was running carbon filter max ...No neighbors, ran a 5,500 in my 4x8 out the same window well and never had a problem with smell leaking out of the unit.

@DemonTrich do you think your in line intake filter got wet and caused the mold???Dude all I can think about at work is you talking about pulling air in and black mold. Why do u think that happened? ??
Did your filters get wet????

Interesting. .. good info... thanks..Imo, the only thing I can think of is my wife ran the dryer, and having my winter air intake 3' from it (even built a small enclosure for my intake to block dryer air), my intake sucked in some moist damp humid air. I only clone in my home, my main grown is done in a commercial bldg in detroit.
That's the only thing I can think of.
Also, since my winter intake air had a down ducting, ice was building up right after the baffle/dryer duct port I used. It caused my r8 insulated ducting work to become moist from the ice melting. There was NO mold on the r8, ducting, baffle, ext. All the mild was 30' away on the other side of my basement.
