No matter what he does if it's a single hose portable AC it will suck out all his co2 in a day or two, thats how those AC's work they take the air from the room. Co2 is best used in a sealed environment either with central AC or a mini split AC.
you can get dual chamber portable a/c units but they are more expensive. no air will leave the room though. kwikool and idealaire are the two companies i know.
not "dual hose" i'm talking about "dual chamber" that is where you lose air in an a/c unit. almost all portable and a lot of window units have a single chamber caus ethey use 1 fan for both chanbers so it can't be completely sealed. with dual chamber a/c units there is NO mixing of the air. you can get dual chamber window units a lot cheaper and even some window a/c unis that are more efficiently designed and sealed so they may not be dual chamber but you get little to no leak on them cause the fan runs constantly while the a/c is on so air can't push through into the other chamber anyway.
Yeah thats what I hear about window units, plus Home Depot and Wal Mart have sales on them because the summer weather is coming.. Good info thanks.
you got it man. good luck.
That looks like the answer to my problem, if that is true I can hold my co2 in my sealed room at the current temps no venting needed? Does anyone object to this reasoning????
you can go up to 90 degrees but try and keep it around 86 if you can. that's the ideal temp. if you add co2 then just seal the room. use a carbon scrubber and just exhaust the air right back into the room. the carbon scrubber is for spores and odor.
I agree again with the Nug he's spot on. I have heard growers growing with temps up to 90 but I also hear to try and keep it at 85 degrees I run a sealed room with co2 and two 1000W HPS and I never go higher than 85.
