Cooling?!

I can't put a AC in the room I got I've a 240 CFM fan with a carbon filter pulling air out 6" and 2 3" holes for a passive intake. I have a desk fan and am going to get a 12" osculating fan the temps range from 84 to about 90. No chance of an AC unit. Is there any other way that I could cool the room more?

From your intake area if its feasible you could have a bucket with ice where the fan is drawing air over the ice but monitor the humidity levels. Unfortunatley at your temps AC is the best choice but looks like you can not go that route.

Everyone has been so pleasant and helpful, from the dispatcher to the technicians... I am very glad to have discovered through a recommendation and will definitely keep your number as my heating and cooling repair from now on. Thank you so much for your prompt, excellent servile

84-90 isn't that bad. I've grown tons of times in that temp range and came out just fine. My current grow is in that range WITH a/c

Also, you could strap a 2 million cfm fan to your light. If the room your grow is in is at 85F your tent will be 85F. Bigger fan =/= cooler than ambient temperature tent.

is the grow IN the room, or in a tent which is inside of the room? if you're doing a tent, try moving that exhaust air to another room if possible. like someone else said, exhausting into the same room will never bring the tent's interior temps below the ambient temperature of the room. this is why AC is in fact so nice but i understand that going such a route is not a possibility..

My box is made of plywood, it is vented out of the room. I guess I could put a fan in the room that my box is in....

fan won't help, it's just going to blow around hot air. You need something to cool the air if you're dumping it back into the room. A/C or dump air into a different room are really the only options.

truth. you reach point where circulation only does so much. not trying to bring you down, but you must be realistic about what your options are once you real a certain point. i'm not sure what else you do could do
