tempature

I'm having problems keeping my room cool. My room is 12x12. I have 3 MH 1000watt lights. 675 cfm exhaust and 500cfm intake fan. 3 oscilating fans. But my room gets as high as 85 F. Any ideas anyone.

Nothing wrong with 85 F. ...But as summer gets here you may see a problem of elevated temps in your room. You need to start now implementing some sort of a/c to cool off your room. You said nothing about having any air cooled hoods,.. If your don't, then you should think seriously about doing this. I have 6 x 600w in a 8 x 12 flower room with cool tubes and my temps w/ lights on hover around 75-80

I don't have cool tubes. Are they expensive?

around £40, $60 if you shop around.

Don't know your location but I am in the states and I paid $62.50 usa for one of mine at dchydro.com . I have 6 others that I lucked out on at an auction I attended while on vacation last year. Picked up 6 cool tubes, several 800cfm inline fans a whole box full of new hortilux bulbs, nine asst size ballasts (most were switchable) eleven air cooled hoods plus an assortment of other commercial nursery items and 3 Seiko stainless watches. Paid 350.00 for the lot and it filled up my entire truck bed and the entire back seat. I estimated that retail new on everything I got was about $3500.00 to $4000.00. Took about 4 weeks to sell what I didn't keep and made 2K...best vacation I ever took...lol
