I have the 75x75x160 cm tent, 400w hps in a cooltube, all 6 inch ducting currently no carbon filter. A fan going full speed 250cmf ( it is FAR too loud) and temps at the plants are 29-31 degrees(celcius).. I have both the passive intakes at the bottom open, and an oscillating fan. The amount of air coming out of the exhaust is ALOT and i do not understand why the HPS remains so hot, i cannot even touch the cooltube. The ballast is located outside the tent.
The problem:
TOO HOT
TOO LOUD
Current options to resolve the problem
Change fans - not sure what i would go for as a fan speed controller would just increase temps
Flexible noise reducer - does it work?
Carbon filter - should reduce fan noise but will temps rise?
Fan speed controller + ac?
