I will say this again run your canopy at 88F and room at mid 70's plants like heat and I even let mine go to 93F at canopy and they love it. rule of thumb is not to have more than a 20 degree swing in F you can do the conversions to C. I have smoked from many a grower and I will tell you all the best bud comes when you run the temps right. room temp and canopy temp is diff. I wouldnt run my room at 88 cause my canopy temp would be high 90's. But in a smaller room you will find you might have to run canopy at 86F to keep room temps lower. Also you want around 55% RH

I keep my temps at 78-82 in the day time and 68-70 at night with 60 % humidity when I used to run a sealed room in the states I would run it at 90's with co2 pumping in all day then high temps don't matter but to run my reg tents at 90's I think is to high plus your watering everyday. I water know 3 times a week on avarage. First pic my 4x4 Scrog now at in the pic 2 weeks into flower now in week 4 , second pic my healthy looking clones getting ready to go in, 3rd pic one of two veg tents 4x8 each with t5's. Last pic is my Jamacian dream bud right before harvest by Eva seeds nice smoke .. image.pngimage.jpeg image.jpegimage.jpeg

Ok i got ya. My temps over night stayed steady at 31° c (87.8° f). I have the temperature dongle about halfway up on the wall in the room.(wireless thermomater) It was -2 all night outside the room. It looks like i will be needing a small vent or i will be running into over heating issues.
The only reason there isnt a vent yet is because i dont have one. Is there any that you can recamend?
A fan with speed controller would e great.
Whats all my options?
