Not enough ventilation causing lack of oxygen for AirPumps?

I have root rot and I think my problem is a lack of oxygen.
But not because I don't have enough pumps or airstones.
I think there is just not enough oxygen in the air inside the grow room.
I was running sealed withco2 enrichment for a while, but then I realized it wasn't working great so I leave the door open now, it's like 300 cubic ft. I don't have an exhaust or intake fan, but I can install some later today.
But I took the plant out of that room, that's the flower room now, and I was going to reveg this thing and just move it over to soil and forget about the root rot like I did with the others. The plants looked droopy this morning when it was in the flower room but now it's sitting in a well ventilated area with fresh air intake and the leaves look a lot happier with the same pumps and stones. It actually looks pretty healthy I would say.
Could it just bei need to add more oxygen to the actual surrounding air so the pumps have more oxygen available for the roots? Does this kind of thing happen? Could I be on the right track with this idea?
I've been doing all sorts of shit so maybe it's something I did earlier if this isn't a possibility

Edit, just remembered this-
this isn't the first time this plant has recovered after being removed from the grow room. This plant was nasty a few weeks ago so I had take it out of the room cuz I was worried of it fucking up my others but I moved them to soil. But I had it out of the room for a week and it really turned around and grew white roots. This was even with a bucket that let light in. Then I put it back in and it came back.
