pulling air out is the best way... you can push it in as well if you like with 400w i ended up needed one 6 inch exhaust with about 150cfm... also i have 3 4x5 passive intakes you would do well with vented hoods but if not you may need 300-400 cfm to suck off the heat effectively do you...

3 hours in to today and it's up to 75.5... still looking good i thought of something else that might be worth while to someone. When i was testing things I started out with a 4 inch exhaust hole. I realized pretty quickly that this wasn't big enough. Here's how I figured that out. Pretty low...

or a nice 10 or 12 amp vacuum cleaner

outside the room ranges 63-65... inside the room is more like 65-67 inside the box at last check before lights out was just under 77.... so ten degrees over ambient on low...

so far the temp on low is 75.6 we'll see what happens after a full 13 hr cycle with the door shut most of the day (if i can control myself) tomorrow should be about to turn off now

the wire should be fine... you really should try to figure out what else is on that circuit though... you never know what people will do... just because it's over the bathroom and laundry room doesn't mean it isn't daisy chained all over the place you're probably fine but you could be on the...

okay... to update anyone that has these questions in the future... I got the microwave blower all wired up and sealed inside a box with a on/off switch, three way switch to control high/low... cut a big hole in the back and attached it to 6 inch hard ducting... takes two 90 degree turns and...

for some obscure reason.. not for anythign normal

Just common knowledge bro... don't know who you're doing electric for.. but I'm feel for them It's in the NEC and if you want an explanation it's so somebody doesn't come down the line in the future and say.. well this must me a 20A circuit... so I can load up 16 amps right here... and then...

This is wrong. You CAN have a 15a duplex receptacle on a 20a circuit(as long as it is not the only receptacle on the circuit). Alternatively, you CAN NOT have a 20a outlet on a 15a circuit. Also, for a 20a circuit you should use 12 gauge wire. That is all.

yes, you got the right one from the sound of it

for one heat causes lower RH anyway... and constant exhaust also will cause low RH if ambient RH is also low unfortunately the only cure is either venting your light directly so you don't pull so much humidity out... or adding more humidity by any (and maybe every) means available if it's...

you can move the fans so they are both after where the the exhausts join... then use a damper to control air flow

are you exhausting an excessive amount?... what's the RH in the outside environment... you'll need a hell of a humidifier if you're just exhausting all the humidity you make outisde

even though i'm not exactly sure what you're saying let me say this... first things first... if the timer isn't working by itself then solve that problem first. If your timer isn't working then you're light controller is going to fail. second... to install the timer box (electrical box with...

are you guys talking about electric water? buddy of mine does rental properties for a living... he had a tenant call him one time and tell him her water hurt... he figured the water heater was turned up too high or something and goes over there... turns teh water on and sticks his hand in and...

microwave vent blower rigged up with shitty leaky cardboard ducting got the temps down to 83 from 88 in a matter of minutes with the door closed... on low... right now the duct is only a couple feet long but like i said it's a leaky cardboard box and tape concoction and it takes two 90 degree turns

down to 87 in an hour with just the pos 80mm pc fan... i think the microwave blower will do fine

for anyone that reads this later or anyone wanting to contribute... just adding a 6x5 inch passive intake and 4 inch round passive exhaust the high temp dropped almost 10 degrees to right above 90 and it took quite a bit longer to get there... (when i say passive i mean no fans at all... just...

that's pretty similar to the size of mine actually... probably 3.5X3X6... or slightly more than than internally
