Extract fridge air into grow room

[jack06041989]

Was thinking could I core a hole into a fridge door then attach and seal ducting over the hole then have the cold air pulled through a wall into my grow room? The fridgge would be in a different room to the plants so the hot air out the back wouldn’t be a problem. Just wondering would the fridge still produce enough cold air with a hole and ducting over it

The fridge is designed to cool only a small space. You'd be better off getting an AC unit.

The amp draw on the fridge wouldn’t warrant using it like an ac
Waste of power

Wtf?

You'd also probably burn the compressors out pretty quickly.

giving up your food storage device to get the temps right in your grow says something about a person.

LOL - It's an 18 x12 room.

Yeah, the fridge will be fine.

cut the hole in the freezer part. Colder the air the less you’ll need.

Just keep your car running and crank the AC. Send a tube outside into the car. Voila.
Or drive it inside, and vent the exhaust outside and leave the doors open with AC cranked.

Please tell me this is sarcasm.

This plan is actually kind of brilliant. Cuts down on electrical costs as well. I'm thinking Prius.

You can also save up some winter and use it in the summer
Eg
Go outside in the winter time.
Grab as many empty water bottles, pickle jars, salad dressing bottles, etc. Boxes won't work because they let the cold out too fast
Ok now, quickly scoop up a bunch of cold air inside the vessel of choice, and then QUICKLY cap it off. Place in the dark NO LIGHT. Then all you have to do in the summer when it's getting to hot, is open up one jar of the winter you've been storing. Voila. Instant -20° cooling guarantee. God I'm a genius

Grove bags?

Kinda like jarring up a fart to save for later or a gift for a friend

 

[Jjgrow420]

Grove bags?

Oh man. Ya. They would really keep the humidity in check prolonging the shelf life of the winter.

Precisely

I jarred up some winter and threw them in the freezer to save electricity. I just checked and the jars are still cold. So your theory is correct
