Portable ac units are hit and miss. Google search the reviews. if its not good enough for a big room, its probably fine for a tent

They are pretty much mini swamp coolers.. They will throw a ton of humidity into your room.. could be good in the seedling / veg stage but not in the flower.. 👊

What size tent are you cooling and what’s the BTU of A/C unit 8000-10000 BTU will handle 550-750 sq ft with no problem. Just make sure to install drain hose for continuous run.

Using humidistat to control fan, will this cause problems? So far fan running for 30 secs every two minutes! Plz advise if this is not a good idea??My exhaust fan is to powerful no speed control just two settings. On the lowest setting the fan is still sucking all the humidity that my humidifier creates out of the tent. So I have bought a humidity controller hooked it up with the humidifier and fan.. It’s working great!!

Slowing a two speed inline fan Can I run a fan speed controller with a dual speed inline fan? My 4” two speed fan is slightly too powerful for my grow room. I’d like to slow the fan slightly but I have heard the these types of controllers don’t work with two speed fans? Any advice or what to buy to do the job?

Do you think this is a better position for carbon filter so it can have better airflow or is it more important to scrub air from the top and have 2 90 degree bends? I'll probably try this in my next grow. Pic with drying plants is setup from before with 2 90 degree bends.

Grow tent Temperature I have a 90cmx90cmx60cm grow tent with a VIPARSPECTRA 300W LED Grow Light inside.. How much will an extraction fan and carbon filter bring down the temp inside? In this heatwave my tent is running at 33 deg C, no plants seeded yet. Will the fan be enough or should I get a cooler?

Cooling whilst using humidifier outside a small grow tent I have a small 90x90x60cm grow tent with a VIPARSPECTRA 300W LED. Heat levels are crazy and running a small humidifier with ice blocks inside the tent along side extraction isn’t cutting it. Could I buy a bigger humidifier, keep it outside the tent duct it in to keep it cool?

Circulation / Exhaust Getting ready to install carbon filter; found myself wondering if growers typically leave their filters/exhaust/fans on during dark periods? Up to this point, I've had everything on one power-strip/timer: circulation fan, exhaust fans, and lights. Should I keep anything on 24/7?
