Ventilation for a Co2 setup????

[BeaverHuntr]

for real, and soon you can kill that co2 /odor/power sucking ac and just pull in frigid winter air, assuming you have that where you are.

That is a better idea use your fan to bring in cool air only at lights off when no Co2 is running. Just opening your grow room door is ventilation you will be fine. For instance I run my sealed room as follows: I pull air from another room through my ducts , through my 1000W hood and exhaust into the attic.

Pretty much the only AC's that wont suck your Co2 are Mini Split AC's and Your home's central AC.

nice room man, true thats the easiest but most portables can be made to suck air from another place to cool the coils, the better the seal around everything involved in that though depends on the way its done and the unit itself.

dual hose portables are pretty affordable really.

Yeah they still suck out some Co2 , not as much as the single hose. Try it and see how often if you are refilling your co2 tank. If you get 7-10 days out of a 20 LB tank of Co2 then thats pretty good. Just dont get a single hose you will just straight suck out all of your Co2 .

single hose can be modified like I said if you're handy with things. first you gotta figure out which opening (they have two mainly , one on the back and one on the sides. cover those up and the one you cover up that doesn't disrupt cool air flowing out the front is the one you need to isolate from the room.

Me too..lol
yeah I see journals with dudes who have converted portable AC's and window AC's to not suck out the CO2 but screw that shit I dont have time for it. If you have the time go for it.

duct tape and cardboard go a long way, whatever the case, good luck and happy growing and don't forget the mighty wash!!

So, pretty much Im good until summer. Not running a/c now. Getting cold outside. But as far as the rest of the ventilation everything looks good? Is it just the cab growers that gotta worry about negative pressure and mumbo jumbo about ventilation?
