I didn't want the wires to the outside, because sockets are hard to mount when is in, plus feeding them before exhaust fans would be hard too. The 5"sq. go to 4" PVC, so you can modify any 4" PVC. Like how I jig-sawed the threads off for this Intake. Hope that helps. Keep us updated.Looking Good, Run them wires inside the pipe until you get outside the frig.
Dan I am building a frig too; I need butt plates for my fans, I saw where you macgyver a drain cap you picked up next to the sewer pipe items.
I may have to enginer some too, I have installed the fans in wall- flush. well one fan so far. These 4'' radio shack 12v Fans are like almost 5 in sq. (4.75 inches). Yeah I need a way of attaching the 4'' pipe to the fan from the inside. Ya know.. Any other Idea's on how to rigg up a butt plate to the fans?
I don't want the light on at all dark times. The green cfl's are painted green and leak too much. The heat socket will be on a separate timer, so it would be dead then anyway if it does work out. from this pic you can see fitting it would be hard and drop the heat bulb too much.you can make one, i did. here is a thread i did https://www.rollitup.org/grow-room-design-setup/339640-do-yourself-ducting-flange.html. it takes about close to an hour to make. but as we have all found, our special hobby requires some custom parts. i have found i could customize everything i need. whether i do it or not depends on if it is faster, easier, or cheaper made by someone else. good luck buddy.
hey daniels, that stuff is looking good. here is an idea on the heat lamp/green light. get a Y light socket splitter. get a photocell light sensor socket, and a green light. put the heat lamp straight into the Y light splitter, then the green light into the photocell socket, and into the Y splitter. once the lights go out, the green light will come on. i dont think the green light will be enough, or directed towards the photocell enough to prevent it from coming on.
