I have a sealed 5x5 tent with 2-1000w aircooled hps and co2.. Fully controlled by sentinel chhc4.
Problem is my heat and humidity. My AC and dehumidifier run almost constantly to maintain 85' degrees and 55% humidity. This is gonna get expensive! Even with dual 6" fans cooling hoods, and being located in a cool basement.
I'm thinking of ditching the AC and exhausting the tent via filter to the outside, instead of keeping it sealed. I know I'll lose most of the co2, but I can cycle it opposite the exhaust with my controller.
Is there that much benefit to running sealed room, compared to vented? The electric bill is gonna be alot better vented.
Or is there a more efficient way to cool my room?
