propane c02 burners. How do keep heat in check?

i will be running 6 to 8 lights in a 15x15 room. 1000 watts hps. I heard the burners will generate heat. How do you keep a seal environment with all that heat?

can someone show me a set up of things i will need.

Bump

Air Conditioner. A mini split is the best option.

A burner is far less to worry about than the 1000w man. If your going to be running that many lights you had better already have your AC planned out. Try to get your room as close to hermetically sealed as you can and that will cut down on your combustion times thus the heated added obviously.

i have a swamp cooler in there. Would that be enough? If not ill probably just ditch the c02 and just add mad ventilation. Also noted i will be starting it in winter. And it snows during that time with temps at the low 30's.

Too expensive. I saw it cost 5k for 12k btu. I need something for 15x15x7

Well I am sure there are more affordable options but yeah they aren't cheap. I paid around 3k for 48,000 btu/hr units from Midea. That was back in 2013 and they are still going.

Thats a great humidifier but it will only cool so much and when you have high humidity due to the plants being larger (biomass) then you will need alternative methods of cooling.

8 lights, CO2 burner, probably gonna want 3 tons at least.

There's no way a 12k btu will cost 5k... Sorry dude I think someone is trying to bend ya over a barrel on that one. We had 2 large rooms, running x12 1kw DE fixtures in each. Each room had two 32k BTU handlers. The cost was like $2500 each plus $400 +/- to do full install and charge the lines. Thats with no discount on buying four of them, and that's also in CAD funds. If your American that would be half the cost with exchange lol.

Everyone wants to run a big boy room, but don't take into consideration the additional cost and watts of cooling. Unfortunately that's the catch to them... I already posted in another guys thread about something similar bout trying to skip out on the AC. Yeah its doable in the winter but there's variables and you must have a good lung room setup. Don't attempt to duct in that cold air or you'll have a mess of condensation on your hands. That being said if you decide to cheap out then spring comes and fucks shit up, and then summer hits and your shut down completely cause its hotter than Hades. If your a guy only pulling a couple crops during winter than shutting down for summer then ya it'll work so long as you pre-plan.

A four fan swamp chiller will easily handle 6-8 lights and a CO2 generator.
