I am doing a major remodel to an indoor garden.
my plan is to convert a room 26'x14' into two rooms.
a flower room (18x14) with 12 1000w DE gavitas
a veg room (8x14') with 3 1000w DE
I already have a central air con unit ducted to both zones.
both rooms would share a wall.
I want to make a closed grow environment (CGE) room.. but also have traditional active intake and exhaust fans.
having both the air con/co2 burner and the traditional ventilation system .,, I will be able to cool the room in the hot summers with the A/C and then use the cold outside air in the winter to cool the rooms, instead of using aircon in the dead of winter. also have been reading about ppl having more success with CGE rooms while running an exhaust fan, which is dimmed down to a slow fan speed, just creating negative pressure.
the intake to pull fresh air for both rooms seems to be a window..
and a hole in the wall on the opposite end for the exhaust..
but where should the veg room exhaust to?
should both rooms pull air directly from outside?
and should both rooms exhaust directly outside?
my plan is for both rooms to have their own co2 burner.
i know typically you should just send that old air outside, unless you need that warm air to heat your house..
also going to be rich in c02... is there a better use than sending it directly outside/pulling from directly outside?
i want to build this room right the first time (ok ive already remodeled this room 10 times..) but i wanna get it PERFECT this time!
these rooms will be in a garage/shop.. heating for rest of the garage is not a concern. avoiding any moisture damage is a major concern.
also any problems with just using panda film to cover framed walls with insulation? instead of using plywood or sheetrock?
thanks for your input!
