So I am currently using a back bedroom that is about 120 inches length x 120 inches width x 95 inches height to grow in. I am currently using 8inch high velocity inline fan at 590 cam for exhaust on 8inch ducting. My fresh air intake consists 4inch inline fans (2) places about holes cut into my floor (live on 1st floor) sucking fresh Cool air from my basement below. I am currently using 4 400watt hps sodium light w/o cool tubes attached. Just have to exhaust hanging high up to catch hot air that is rising and so far it's working well. I should also mention that the air is being exhausted through the closet of the grow room into my bed room close which is adjacent to grow room from inside the closets. I recently just bought a 60 inch x 120 inch x 80 inch (height) tent to split the room for multiple cyles. Thanks for sticking with me ... So here is the question(s).....I know some hoods have holes on both sides for cool tubes ... Haven't yet to decided to run (a) 4 600 watt hps or (b) 3 1000 hps lights inside the tent, is it possible to connect the ductwork from the first light into the second and then the third and/or 4th hood and out with a strong enough inline fan? Or would This not work because of the open part of the hood where the bulb is? So if it wouldn't work that way I guess I could always get crazy with the "y" joints and make something work and connect to my existing exhaust. Or would it be better to add another exhaust Line just for the cool tubes ? And then have a secondary inline fan sucking air from the tent into my existing line for the open room? Sorry if I'm not explaining. This well I really am trying. I'm sure a lot of it just space/personal preference. Also lines for filters seperate or tie into one main exaust for everything (obviously I will have to add a few fans to make sure everything works well.) and 2 filters or 1? One for tent and one for open room? Or just one. Bigger one tied into main exhaust line???
