heres some more pics..my buddy custom welded those simple brackets for my A.C unit...custom . lag bolted to wall few minutes ago...all i got 2 do at this point is wire the breakers in ...and cut a whole and mount the a/c in.
as u can see i took a pic of part of my garage. that is the mrs.'s stuff. can u imagine if she got that out of the way the potential my footprint has?

ya ya..me 2..hmmm plants not sure yet.. i got the certain perameters to work with, this is a legal op. my numbers are increasing..Ive taken on 2 patients, and my inhouse girl ,shes my caregiver..but i wanna keeep it simple really. It may allow for more of a perpetual end result. I can say this much, a cheap non air cooled 1000hps , is wut will prob go in the bud room along with the existing 400 and 600. the 2 existing lights are air cooled, but i figure i could run the 1000 in a big reflector and with a/c not worry so much about venting the bulb.
The room is bout 7x7x 10high. right now lignts are hung over a 7x3.5 space. theres room to hang a 1000w over a 4x4 shaded area..and still give me space to walk. Id say the 9 girls I have in there right now are pushing my spacing out pretty thin.. so I run prob just 12 but spaced out more effeciently.

Okay so im ready to install A.C going in , in the am. support is hung and power supply is ready. a.c unit is 9 amps ...1020watts. says to only plug into grounded recepticle, never plug into an extension cord, or power strip, this is noted on the a.c units power cord. i have the new heavy duty 20amp recepticle and breaker for this very reason. Only question I still have is can I use a Hydrofarm Timer with this setup, to say 15 on 15 off while lights are on...anybody got any ideas whether using timer is safe? Hit me up with ideas for rep+

shit i know some of you guys run window a/c units right. by priciple the hot air vent in2 the cooler garage...and the a/c blows in2 the sealed grow. its mounted up higher and out of the way..but by my calculations...cool air will drift down anywayss. my main unanswered quiesitons...brewing...are: wut does this unit do to my RH levels..ie do i need a de humidifier now...can i plug this a.c unit in2 a hydrofarm timer rated past the a/c aperage and wattage(a/c cord says not to plug into anything) and finally....what does this unit do to my co2 levels..since im not runnin any co2........bumppp help me on my way to iccey

I have window unit sir, my rooms humidity is higher this grow than last with these new tents Im building, its around 50-56 solid. It did NOT change when I added unit. I have mine running off a like twenty foot ext cord, three way splitter to the mini fridge haha. Everything stays cold brother, no cords warm up. I do run CO2 for 3 mins a hour but it will really start making a difference in flowering hopefully. If your setup is straight air tight it wont be after you put the a/c in so it will probably help you exchange the air a little better in there which is a good thing in your case id say since you arent running co2 routinly I like to leave my tent door off and let the garage air come in for all the hours im up actually.

the a/c unit i have also acts as a de-humidifier.. i dont know if its just the model i got or it they all do that... i run mine all the time right now and hover around 30% to at max 40% humidity.. it works well... you might have a slight raise in your RH, but it should be minimal!!.. i used co2 enrichment, so im not sure what itll do to your co2 levels.. i wouldnt think it would affect them at all... pretty much keep them where they are at id imagine...

ya im the lucky one, just a 20" box fan in the window for exhaust or intake pending on how hot my room gets., and one 20" box fan to push the heat away from the plants over to the exhaust fan and out. works great. no dehumidifier or any thing else, co2.
now i can see all that changing when i get myother room as im adding one more 1000wtt hps.

Ya for sure when u bump up to 2k of light i bet you'll least want a 6'' can fan , or a.c. ..but the cheaper u can rig, really the more effecient and smart you are. youve ran those box fans for how long now, and they cost what (20BUCKS?), and youve grown XXXamount of bud, good job brother

No worries bro but im no Guru. I am basically just a very simple grower that has a simple and basic setup which we have managed to get dialed in due to experimenting and trialing different methods until we were happy with the results. There is always room for improvement and I am still always trying to improve my set up and methods just like everyone else.
Keep up the good work
