As long as you have proper ventilation u should be ok. You might need to run ac though

2 1000 for that size room is a little over kill but will work. 2 600s would be way more adiquate and cost affective.

I hear ya. I would definetly use cool tubes or reflectors cause in that space 2 1000s are gonna get hella hot.

2 in 1? If its big enough maybe. My friend runs 2 1000 in 1 through a cool tube and his temps where still high until he started runnin a/c through the tube.

You should be fine bro. I'm running 2 air-cooled 600's in a 4x4' tent with no issues. Shine on!

water cooled reflectors are another option. They are a lil pricey but if you don't run ac through the reflector, not being an expert in any way, those temps are going to be hard to control. best of luck

2000/36sq ft= 55 watts per sq ft. That is about perfect.

thats exactly the way i had it figured hornedfrog. I built three other rooms in the past but just 400w hps and a few flor. Nothing on this scale. I will have more questions and mabe some answers as I get used to this fourm stuff lol and i checked on water cooled reflectors and the damn chiller is a big expense. do you have to run a chiller with a water cooled reflector ??
