Hi.

I need to cover my second closet door from the inside. Does Walmart carry light proof black plastic? What should I bee looking for and where should I look? I have a Walmart and a Lowes here.

Also, anyone know if lowes has a reasonably priced inline duct fac, like HTG has for 37 dollars? I am headed to lowes in the morning to get a couple dryer ducts and vent my closet. i saw them there the other day for 5 bucks, came with the cover for the outside and some pipe. I would like to get an inline duct fan and also attach some flexible duct from the dryer pip to the duct fan so i could actually move the duct fan around in my closet and aim the cool air where I want to. Another duct fan would also be perfect to push the air out at the top of the closet. I will put a dryer cover on it as well and the duct fan will go right into the wall.

I am tired of trying to hide light because I have to keep my closet doors open to keep it cool. I am going to get myself a couple locks for my closet door and hide the keys. It will be a relief to be able to keep my closet cool while keeping the doors shut and the light inside. What a dream come true that will be.

Thank

Thanks

The best thing is panda plastic, black on one side white on the other and 4mil thick. Any Hydro Grow Shop should sell it by the linear foot. its 10 wide.

I don't know about Lowes, I do know Menards has them. The 8" 500cfm is less than $30.00. They will have a better selection of any other fittting etc. you might need.

You are doing the right thing. You may not need a fan blowing air in, especailly if you use larger ducting and bigger fans for exhausting the air. You may be able to use passive intake. VV

Usually about $1.10/ linear ft. I can buy the 100' roll 10' wide for less than $100.00. 10' by 10' would be about $11.00. I have some that has been hanging for a year. VV
