I don't have an intake fan extracting fresh air from an open window due to discretion issues and I can not leave the window open because of neighbors what do I do? Lol
Ok thanks but what does an air conditioner do? And do I put it inside the tent? With the plants? Or can I put it in the room?An air conditioner?
Ain't that what an extraction fan is for inside the tent removing hot air and humidity? And what about a clip on oscillating tent fan? Will that help reduce temps?An air conditioner?

So your saying I can put a portable ac inside the room without having to put the portable ac unit inside the tent? And it will still cool the temps inside the tent?A fan will circulate the air but will not cool the air.
An air conditioner will cool and dehumidify the air.
Condition the room, not the tent.
Bro can you show me a picture?Use a portable AC unit and pass the exhaust through a carbon filter.
Man I really appreciate your advice dude can you recommend a decent portable ac unit? Not too cheap not too expensive lolAn air conditioner?
Is sounds complicated but I'm sure it isn't lol but I think I understand what you're saying but I can't really put a hole in my door and can't really vent out the window period I'm thinking about getting a good ac unit that doesn't need to be vented and even if it ain't perfect anything to help bring down temps is a must .I just figured out the best setup for my situation but it was some work and sacrifice of cosmetics. Dehuey in room, holes with louver or vent in door, exaust fan in tent pulling air through the door into the room and out to another room or outside which goes through carbon filter that is inside the tent.
It beats anything else but that is my experience. I looked into ac units, youll end up putting the same work in if not more trying to size it to your window or those mini ac units that the best of work by having one duct blowing hot air outside to work better/more efficient.
Any other setup I had heat issues. This works amazing for humidity too. The grow room is actually habitable and the temps and humidity in tents are very stable. This is much cheaper than an ac unit. It equalizes the temp of room to the rest of household. I would do this even if I wasn’t growing because it makes the room way more comfortable.

Do i have to exhaust the air conditioner?
Yes, the coils need to be outside, like in a split unit or the heat from the coils needs to be exhausted outside.Do i have to exhaust the air conditioner?
Do u have a picture? How did you make a hole in your door? I'm thinking exhaust the hot out with the air conditioner and duct through the door to expel then cool the room with the ac unitI just figured out the best setup for my situation but it was some work and sacrifice of cosmetics.
