AC never shuts off

I find it hard to believe that you find it hard to believe that sucking the air from the room constantly works. AC works by cooling the air and then returning to cool again, why would you even want to exhaust is my question.

What he is doing is exhausting the used air, as it exhausts, it pulls fresh air in from the intakes. It is a good idea, but as you said, he is sucking out all his cool air. Which is why I recommended a timer to exhaust for a few minutes every hour. He won't work his a/c so hard and still gets regular air exchanges.

Well I need fresh air for the plants. So the only way to do this is seal the room, get a burner, dehumidifier, and controls in the room.

I only run hid lights for flower and run my lights at night to help cool the condenser on the ac

In so far, I have found Jrainman and Chuck Estevez to be right on the money. Even with an ac unit of any kind, it would be good to replenish the natural co2 supply from outdoors by having the exhaust cycle on and off a bit here and there. Me personally, I just use constant exhaust fans .
