Hi,
Ive been battling heat issues with one of my tents. Its pretty clear I need a larger fan and maybe a better reflector.
The tent is 3x3.
Currently I have a 400 watt super sun 1. It is an air cooled hood, but it only has 4 inch vents. My 180 cfm 4 inch fan isnt enough, and 4 inch fans dont seem to get much more powerful.
Im thinking I will get a solid 6 inch fan and a 4 inch reducer, and use that until I can replace my hood with a 6 inch air cooled.
Im leaning towards:
Ostberg 487 cfm
or
soler & palau 293 cfm
I realize using a reducer isnt the best, but I need to get these temps down. I tend to be clueless about ventilation and pressure buildup. Are these fans too powerful? Is a reducer just a bad idea?
I would eventually like to get a 6 inch daystar ac. My experience is they do a much better job cooling. Id like the fan to be a good match for that in the long run.
Thanks for ANY help!!
