Im having some heat problem in my new grow room the temp is about 33 celcius im running two 600 watt hps in cooltubes and a fan sucking the air throug a filter into the cooltubes and out of the house.
I need some fresh air inside the room what is the best thing for me too do? i was thinking about putting just a hole in the door or a fan blowing air into the room you guys think that would help?

how big is your room, and how many cfm's is your fan

Your ambient room temp is 33c?
Or, canopy temp?
You will definitely benefit from a small air intake fan.
The lower you put the intake the cooler it is likely to be.
1 thing to keep in mind though, is light.
You need to baffle the light that will come through the fan.
A 90* elbow duct works great!

Need bigger fan or shorter ductwork. Sounds like a closet grow, yes? A passive (no fan) intake should be fine if you can get enough air out.

Yea. Ducting is too long. Causing too much static pressure and not allowing the fan to work ass well as it should. I understand you wanted to vent outside but if heat continues to be an issue you will have to address that. Rep+ for the clean setup tho. Nicely done.
