1st Time Noobs New Stealth Closet Grow

Hi everyone.
I want to attempt a stealth closet grow.
My space is approx 10ft long, 6 and a half ft high, and just over 3ft wide.
I have bought 2 600w cooltubes with digi ballasts, and a Rhino 8" filter with extractor fan.
My main concerns are heat and noise.
I was planning to have 4 holes in the top of the wardrobe, 2 for each cooltube.
1 for air coming in and the other to exhaust the hot air out into my room.
(is it better to blow down ducting onto the light and have a passive out or to have an extractor fan pulling the heat away from the bulb?)
The rhino filter would also be exhasting out into my room.
Will this cause heat problems in my closet as I have no cool air coming in, as the heat from the lights will be exhasted out to the room and re-circulated back from the intakes to the cooltube. I am pumping heat out and then drawing the heat back in.

My room is downstairs so am unable to vent out to the loft and not keen on a tube out of the window.
All advice greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your reply. Your fan is something like this one? Is it ducting in, cooltube, ducting, fan, ducting out ?
Does any light escape from the ducting coming in and out of your tent?
