So I am planning on taking my girls up to the attic for flowering. My attic has a footprint of 25'x40' with a center ridge height a little more than 7'. There is vents on both end walls. The house is almost 70yrs old and not even close to being airtight. I have an 8'x8' area in the center of the room that I am going to be designating to my girls. My plan is to mount 2x 8" inline duct fans at either of the attic exhausting OUT the end vents of the house. If my plan works I should be sucking fresh cool air up from the house itself.(living quarters) Hopefully this will help out in the heat of the summer. I have a few questions for the RIU experts: 1) Should I hang or build something to hold up 4 reflective walls inside of my 8'x8' area? I am just wondering if I wall in an area, if it will take away or restrict any of my ventilation. 2) I ran across a steal of a deal on a 400W HPS fixture and was just wondering as to what people's opinions are on a hood for it. My plans are either to bend up a piece of HVAC duct panel and mount a 6" fan out the top, or put it inside of a 6" round HVAC duct with the fan out one end. To add to that, I will have my eye out for another steal, so I might be upgrading this hood to a bigger watt HPS in the future. As always, thanx guys for your valued input.
