Tent climate control

Im setting up an 8x8 grow tent. It will have 6x600watt air cooled/ducted hoods. I plan on running a sealed room to use CO2. I will have a dehumidifier as well. I plan on putting in a dual hose portable a/c or possibly cutting a hole in the tent and putting in a window a/c.
So my problem here is how to control the moisture that the a/c is gonna throw out. I dont want to mold up the house.
Note: this is a rental house and therefore i cannot open any windows

Are you cooling the room the tent is in, or just inside the tent?

Usually, Window shakers are a better option than Portable AC's.

But if no window....

Window ac units cannot be used indoor. They must exhaust outside, scrap that idea.

How do you intend to vent the co2? You're worried about mold, I'd be worried about you killing yourself and your family messing around with co2.

Whoa.

Just noticed the edit about no windows.

Recipe for disaster IMO.

Mmmkay, lol... I'm not even going to dive into the VAST difference in your example.

It's really dumb to dive into something that has hazardous and fatal consequences without vetting it through. IMO, you're setup isn't adequate to use co2 effectively. Do you intend to keep circulating the same stale air in your room?

Good luck.
