AC fumes in grow room

Fro5ty
Fro5tystarted grow question a year ago
Currently having a heatwave atm. Temps outside are 30°C. I'm thinking about putting my portable AC in the room. Put it where the dehumidifier is now. But what about the fumes? The AC has an exhaust that I have no way off connection to outside..

That exhaust should not harm you but may produce more heat than the AC can cool that’s why it needs to be exhausted. I would definitely figure out a way to port it outside. Good luck and let it grow!

the exhaust carries hot air away.. if you cannot do that, it won't cool the room. more heat is generated than removed. so it'll only warm the area in an extremely inefficient way, but would still act like a space heater, lol. got a window? buy the little attachments for ac exhaust (can make one easy enough with a slat of wood, hole saw and a appriately sized fitting for exhaust duct) or create a switch for your luandry exhuast when not in use... so if you cannot pipe the hot air elsewhere and isolated from that room, it will only warm it up.

just connect the AC unit to your big room where the tent is, or to the closest room where you can vent that exhaust "fumes" outside. Don't vent back into your apartment when the ac unit in the tent, as its just adding in more heat and moisture to your apartment. counter productive. If your closest window is on the the other side of the apartment, maybe move the tent over temporary if it can be. or use a fan and blow the colder air into the area in the apartment where your grow tent is. Good Luck!

Huh. What do you mean an AC with fumes.. You mean the pipping????? That is so hot air can be blown out of the room and exchanged for cold through the ac until.
