With summer temps in the 90s im going to have to vent my portable ac out of my house via a dryer vent. Im currently venting out of a wall in my room into the rest of my basement.my room temps are 77ish and the bloom tent with the ac facing right into the passive intake is 80-85. Today I went and bought the 4" ducting and adapters needed to hook it up to the ac's exhaust... Only to be dissapointed the room temp spiked to 86 tent to 90. Clearly the run of ducting is too long for the units fan.
So my question is should I get a 80cfm 4" duct booster fan or a 180cfm 6" duct booster fan? Its 4" ducting about 20ft of its straight run on the floor and 6ft up to a window vent.
Setup is 4x4x7 tent with 600w cooltube, 200cfm fan/filter also cooling the hood, 2 6" clip ons in tent, passive intake with 8k btu ac pointing right at it, 4 plants in soil.
