What do you think this will do for my temps?

7th1der · Nov 20, 2008

I have this Home Depot store credit (only about $ 1

that's clearly burning my pocket. I am also having a bit of a high temp issue in my cab. If my temps are at about 85-90 now, how much would they drop if I were to add these to the ducts on my cool tube? Better yet, is it worth it?

Thermwell 12 In. x 15 Ft. x 1/8 In. Self-adhesive Foil/foam Duct Insulation - FV516 at The Home Depot

Thanks in advance!

if you want to drop the temp you will need an extractor fan i dont think that stuff will work it will just get hot and the heat will still be in the grow room you only need to drop the temps to 80 ish

what is your cool tube setup is it just the cooltube or do you have extraction ?

thats for like heaters furnace and central air ducts it keep the hot/cold in the duct work so you dont have heat/cold loss threw the duct work, It wont do anything for your temps in your box. get a bigger fan

At 85 degrees your girls virtually stop growing so they can protect themselves from the heat. You need to exhaust the hot air out or pump cool air in or both? Just get those temps down ASAP! You can vent into or out of the attic,floor or walls. Good Luck!
