Alright, currently I have a 6x7x9.5 room framed off my office which is using my garage as a lung. My fans are noisy and I feel shit could just be planned out better. I want to convert it to sealed just to be able to cap the noise and not have 1000cfm of air exchanging in my garage 24/7. I understand the sealing thing but I have some questions regarding cooling. At 1600 watts of hps and a area that’s around 2500btu of natural heat, puts me around 8500btus in the actual room without a dehumidifier, add another 1500 plus. So I don’t have co2 questions or scrubbing, I just don’t know my options to cool the room, this is one of my biggest expenses to convert. Can I use a portable dual hose duct unit?? A window ac installed in the wall?? For my space a $1k mini split isn’t really the answer, I would just cool the entire lung room for that and it’s not going to help my noise then. I’m not venting my lights. Co2, i will grab a 20lb tank, monitor, Jazz, will have to search around for something decent and affordable for my needs. I have a couple months to plan as this run finishes. I know the math and what I can do to cool the room, I’m just wondering what guys are using on these size spaces, I don’t want to get something that won’t work. 12000btu portable with dual hoses vented outside??
