Oh Ok its meant to run below 65F it says so theres that. Will it warm up the house? Roomies will be mad. My grow is always the blame lol. Will it heat up a room? A bit overkill for one room. I just think mini split is better I am alreaddy forgetting how hot it was, 90F.

I run mine only in my grow room, with the 18k minisplit I still require dehumidification to stay below 65-70%. I run a smaller dehumi in my dedicated flower room with a 9k minisplit if that helps and yes I require A/C to deal with the dehumi's heat. The climate control side of this hobby is expensive, oof.

Top of the line for me is a aprilaire e100V , with fresh air damper kit. You can add an intake to it to bring outside air inside, in cycles per hour. If the air coming in is too humid it will turn on the dehu . I like aprilaire products alot but most growers I think prefer quest. They are more efficient when u put them as close to the ceiling as possible as well (better dehumidification when it's warmer)

These do dump a ton of heat, and a 80 pint would be even better but I'm not sure if they make that with that nice air kit.

You could also add air conditioning/heat pump to help negate the heat and give you full control. You need the dehu the most though then worry about heat, if growing under LED it can be 85 and be OK

This has peaked my interest for small area grows. Anyone have experience with these?

looks like a plain old standalone dehumidifier with a special adapter, then special controls to link it up to the resst of the spider farmer system. Cool product!
