connecting cool tubes to main extractor

hello everyone i have 4 600w cool tubes and was wondering if i could hook it up to my main extractor with out loosing too much pressure in the room. the extractor is plenty power full i normally run it on 50% now since that thing is so juicy i was wondering if i could hook the cool tubes up to it. the cool tubes pull air from out side the room not inside so odor wouldn't be a factor. will i have problems?


thanks

You are going to need fresh air intake if your lights are on their own exhaust
That would make a positive pressure in the room and unless your room is completely sealed the odor WILL leak out

thanks for the info tom, i do have separate exhaust for fresh air and the door is air tight besides. so i could poke a hole in the main extractor ducting and run ducting from my tubes to it and since the air for the tubes comes from outside the room it wont be taking in any odor air that hasnt been filtered yet. so i could do it right? i wont loose too much pressure inside the room or will i?
