I have a evaporator Humidifier running with ice water
Infinity ac t8
2 hurricane fans
4 spiderfarm 4000
Closed room just the ducting for inline fan out window
What to keep it stealthy, all legal just my neighbors r little pain in the ass noisy

What a not so expensive way to lower my temp. But also raise my humidity?

Trying to cool a room that size won’t really have a cheap option. You have to account for all the equipment plus ambient and get a ac unit that will cover the btu’s. If you can’t vent outside, not sure how else to cool a room. A window ac unit would prob be best, if you have a window.

Ok I'll do anything but I can put much more on my plugs as watts, what a alternative beside using my window cuz neighbors will hear that window ac unit
Also trying to save energy , I have water free, anything that can help me with lower temp down n raise humidity up 2 for 1?

J232 said it. Google “evaporative cooler”. Neighbors will see and hear it, but so what?

A swamp cooler then, evaporative cooler, looks like you just got one. It’s a humidifier that wicks water and blows air threw a filter or sponge type thing, adds moisture and can help cool.

No idea, I don’t use a swamp cooler, if you want to cool a room, add up the btu’s of the fans, light, dehumidifier, humidifier, size of the room. I wouldn’t count on a small swamp cooler to lower temps that much. Where is that exhaust going? What exactly are you trying to setup? I don’t do LED but I assume the footprint is 6x6 with 4 boards.

Well I ran all light n fans n ac n that evaporator Humidifier, n my humidity is 45% n my temperature is 87°f my inline fan goes out my window

I'm trying to set up my grow room, about 40 plants comfortable,
How do I measure my btu?

I use 3.5 btu,s per watt and kick a bit more on. So whatever all your equipment pulls.. 3000watts. 10-12000 btu’s. Plus a bit extra..

Your humidity will go up once you have plants in the room

Do you have fresh air coming in from another room. To replace watts going out
