Question... The mini split is going to be positioned at 6 ft from the floor of a 9 ft ceiling on one end of the 30 ft section.. centered up down the middle. Exhaust fans, I plan on having four 8 inchers evenly on the ceiling. Where would you put the fresh air intake?... I would think on the opposite wall of the mini split, about the same height.. whatcha think?

It doesn't matter that much. What does matter is not to have the fresh air next to the exhaust.

Have you thought about electricity?
Most electric company have peak hours which are more expensive. Try to avoid having lights on during this time.

Yes. I have thought about that especially during flower. I'll run those at night. I dont know about anywhere else, but the juice is not that bad on the cooperative Im on. It's 0.0769 cents per KWH.

Im building a 20x30 room inside of an existing 1400 sq ft shop. Walls will be 6 inch stud with spray insulation. I'll have all the outlets on the ceiling for 20 1200 watt leds. The room will be sealed. I need advise on ventilation, exhaust, CO2 or not? and mini-split ac for this setup. I plan to have 60-80 plants going. Thanks in advance.

Damn!.. I dont know about lights yet, but I run tower sprinklers 24/7 in the summer pushing 22 gallons a minute, and it costs about $18 a week. Im on an aquifer well set at 220 ft. Thats a lot of water! Im going to be running the LED's at 220v, that way they are only pulling 2amps per light on a 200A breaker... making room for expansion.
