Also, regarding the dehu, it won't really heat the room during lights on. The AC will pull moisture while it runs and it will be doing so constantly during lights on, this will be the dehu's "down time". Get a little 45 pint, it will be more than enough for that size room. Mount it high enough that you can run a hose from it, through the wall, and into a bin/trash can. Small pump and hose in the bin so you can water your fruit trees outside with it.

Ok, thanks. In the beginning I might not have the Co2 tank yet. Do you think this is going to be a problem with circulation? Only AC air will be coming in nothing being pulled out.

Maxing 1K's at a 4x4 foot print gives plenty enough lighting.....6 in your space is going to be a pain.

I would simply set 3 of them in-line along the 11ft wall. Hang them out to give a 5+ft footprint in the 7ft direction and leave the remaining space as an access path, along the other 11ft wall. You'll want that access!

This is one of mine right after the building was built. (got pressed to transfer plants early - still finishing at the time)
The portable is gone as central ac is now in place.
This is a 12 x 24 room and it's a 10K room. Packing in lighting would press the heat. I like air to circulate well.
The hoods have 20% more light - The airflow is not straight through - reflector covers the normal 6" hole.
I have NO lighting issue's as far as intensity.....
How is your room setup ? Cold air from outside through lights and out ? Passive intake ?

Update: the carbon filter w/ fan sitting on top comes to a Split in the duct cooling 3 lights on both ends. I've been running 6k watts and it runs smooth. The filter is standing upright on the ground inside the room. Great harvests with 40 plants in 5 gallon geo pots.

All light cooling air is drawn from the "attic" space and exhausted back up there. Dust filtered only. The building is peak vented and exhaust fanned.

Room intakes are HEPA filtered.

I run greenhouse temp control electrical lines on the room exhausts in the winter. Set the temp and it'll pull cold air in to cool the room. No AC in cold months
