im trying to keep my grow room as sealed as possible. i bought a delonghi portable ac and vented it through the crawl space. the problem i am having is when its on it sucks the co2 right out of my room. are there any portable airconditioners that wont draw room air out of there exhaust hoses or would a window mount work better?
need advice on airconditioner

what size is your room? i have found that window units cool alot better than portable ac..expecially water cooled portable acs..im trying to keep my grow room as sealed as possible. i bought a delonghi portable ac and vented it through the crawl space. the problem i am having is when its on it sucks the co2 right out of my room. are there any portable airconditioners that wont draw room air out of there exhaust hoses or would a window mount work better?
but however some add much humidity to the room.
you could also set your ac and co2 on timers so that there not going at the same time
my room is 11x14. i dont want to add a water cooled unit cause of humidity issues. i dont want to use timers either. in the summer we hit over 100 were i live. i have my co2 on a co2 meter that measures ppm and is only active when the lights are on. once the lights heat the room up the portable ac that i have sucks all the c02 out. im trying to find out if there is a portable unit that wont suck room air out or if a window unit would accomplish this goal. basicaly i want to be able to keep recirculating cool air through the room that doesnt exhaust all my c02 out
