Whats going on RIU? Well I have just started my first grow and it is under 2 400watters.
The original plan was to grow next door in a hobby room, and then move into that place the next year. (best friends live there now.)
Our place is a 3 story town house, and has an excellent attic on what would be the 4th floor.
The new plan is to build in the attic and basically make it look like a hospital. I will have a decent size mother area and a decent size veg area. Both of those will be run by T5's(several).
The flower area will hopefully be 4k-6k in HPS on light movers.
Yes, that sounds like a lot, but my power is cheap. At its peak, $.060200/KWH and night time is $.035500/KWH.
If ran during the day, 6k of light raises my power bill $130 total, and at night $76. 4k on light movers is probably what we will end up doing.
**MY MAIN QUESTION REGARDS POWER**
Right now there is only 1 normal dual 120v outlet up there. What process do I take to get an additional breaker setup for up there, get atleast 10 more normal outlets and 2-3 220v outlets? Power company? Electrical contractor? How much am I looking at?
Obviously I am not try to be cheap with the setup I am running, I just need to know who to contact and what types of prices I will be looking at.
Any help is appreciated. If you have any attic experience, PLEASE tell me ANYTHING that helped you out! We still have to insulate the ceiling walls, lay down flooring(plywood), complete a few walls(plywood), and then cover that sucker in mylar and make sure it is sealed off.
THANKS!
