If we put a hydrohut in our room, will the heat that is being blown out from the light heat up the room?
Heat transfer is a path function (process quantity), as opposed to a point function (state quantity). Heat flows between systems that are not in thermal equilibrium with each other; it spontaneously flows from the areas of high temperature to areas of low temperature. When two bodies of different temperature come into thermal contact, they will exchange internal energy until their temperatures are equalized; that is, until they reach thermal equilibrium.

All grower's at some time during there growing time will come up against the dreaded heat factor.A great tip that i do now is i bought a extra exaust fan with a carbon filter on that one too.But this is because i have people liveing above and belowe me so i need to get any ouder out of the grow area without leaveing any smell at all.Have a fan for the plants one that will keep the plants on the move this will give you a far better robust plant.But the most important fan is the one that you have just for the light and the hood.You need the fan to blow cold air at the light have it on full your light and hood will cool right down.If you take the legs of a large fan then you will be left with a square section with 4 screw holes.Screw a section of timber to the ceiling of the grow room with a little glue on the back then screw the fan to it.A little up the fan just belowe the dome there is a ajuster to alter the height of the fan so you can always have it on the light and hood.I even have a small fan on the ballast to keep this from getting too hot.It is a good idea to get hold of some pipe lagging from the local plumbers shop and put this under the section of wood b4 the screws go in.By doing this the noise will be reduced by alot.Also tape some of the lagging to the underside of the smaller fans this will stop the noise of any vibrations taht your fans may ammit but tape them to the floor or they may move around.When the smaller plant fans need to be highered just use bunges and have the hanging just above the plants.You could also go for a plant that like heat like jackherer.
