This was what I was talking about. It would be about 12 feet of duct run and 540 degrees(6ft per fan and one fan will do 360degrees the other 180)Untitled.jpg

I'm trying not to chain the hoods. the thought is, in a set-up like that, the fourth hood in the line is only being fed hot air and not helping much. my manafold thought is the air gets divided and pulled through the hoods at the same time.. thanks for the idea though.

Good move not daisy chaining. I chain 2 lights max without problem. Any more than that and the last light is quite a bit hotter than the first. With just 2 chained you can't even tell the difference.

air ducting take 2.jpgok its pretty crude but here's my next gen. I went away from the manafold idea, but I'm not sold that this will work either. I thought about the turbulance issue and the striaght tubes would connect to Y and the connect in different patterns on either side of the system. I AM going to us CG's idea an get some radiators from the old junk yard and make up a winter swamp cooler, I'm thinking one rez outside with coolant and two radiators inside with fans and an aux line going to a stainless steel brake line to cool the nute rez tank.

thanks for all the help guys, the air ducting is still in work but I should get to room build in the next few weeks. any ideas or further fixes, please let me know!

peace
