see that's it, how can I vent the closet

Here let me say this I have my lights on from 6pm til noon, I run in night obviously for air.


So here is my Ideas first and for most thinking of going from 8pm to 8am like all times a 12 12 room.

With this I can mount my AC in the window like its supposed to be I would then run from window to tent with AC (least turns needed) anyways what can I do for the closet containing the heat?

I have a very similar setup to you. I have a 4x4x6 foot Secret Jardin w/ a 600 watt digilux bulb putting out 95,000 lumens and a lot of heat.

-To combat the heat I have a 400 cfm exhaust fan (duct fan). This is hooked up to my light, pulls air out of the tent and through the carbon filter. I use a controller to run the fan at about roughly half speed.

- I have one passive duct that sucks air in through negative air pressure. This is near my window air conditioner where the cold air is.

-On nice fall days when the temps are in the 70's, I don't use my AC, just a window fan to bring in the air (cheaper than a 500 watt ac unit).

-My temperatures in the tent remain very stable, usually 2-5 degrees above room temperature.

Make sure you are exhausting the warm air away. and that cold air is coming into the tent. If you do this you will maintain an excellent temperature range.

FYI, my light cycle is 12/12, turns on at 8pm and off at 8 am.

If you're having problems venting the closet have you considered cutting a hole in the closet ceiling? Is it a possibility?

If you can, it would solve a lot of your problems.

I did what headless said with mine cause I didn't want temps to high. The room stays cool I use a bathroom exuast fan to pull hot air out.

ya its not possible, not my own place and as such cant alter anything within this place
