94 is way to high..blowing heat into the wall of your room isn't gonna help it just heats the wall of the room ..it has to come in from another room or better,outside..and go out into another room,attic or outside..if your heating your house kill the heat for your grow room..the light alone will heat a room that size..probably to 70/75 deg..is the ballast magnetic or electronic??..i use a two small personal desk fans to keep them both kool..move anything that generates heat out of the grow room unless it has to be there..
 
my duting fan is sukin in air from the top of the room through the light and in to the wall 1 fan rotating high in the room and one box fan on the ballast i also got a lil veg room with 6 4 ft flor what sould i do ive been wasting money and eletriity and need a setup that is simple but effetive i want to grow 20 plants as big as possibe my grow area /room isabout 12 x 12ft i was gonna only use 7x7 please help me i have 15 plants vegging under 1000 watt hps 15 hrs a day feeding moonshine + mollasses

I used one of those inline duct booster fans for a closet once and it didnt do the trick for that so it def wont work for 1000w. I ended up using a bathrm exaust for that closet.
Def upgrade ur exhaust and have it exit outside, up chimny or attic...plus make better intake.
