It all depends on the temp of the air you are pulling into the room. If you can push and pull enough cool air you could be alright. But you are right you will have heat issues. You can try increasing the fan/duct size on your out and intakes from 4inch to 6inch. Make sure your exhaust cfm rating is more than your intake cfm rating or you can over pressuring the room and smell could be a problem later. Best thing would be to go to wal-mart and buy a 100 dollar, 5,200 BTU air conditioner. You can also try to get ducted hoods (reflectors) that can pull alot of the hot air away from the start, the air next to the lamp. Also alot of good info found at this link that can help you on all kinds of things. http://www.drugs-forum.com/growfaq/GrowFAQ Basic Topics.htm. Another link for intake and exhaust, http://www.drugs-forum.com/growfaq/1528.htm. And yet another good link for cooling using Fans, http://www.drugs-forum.com/growfaq/1635.htm

Hope this helps,

You will run the fans 24/7, You want good air circulation thought the day. You want a temp range of between 65 and 80. 65 lowest lights off and 80 degrees AT the Most when lights are on. Best temp with lights on would be below 75 degrees. Most would put a timer on the air conditioner to come on with the lights, but some air conditioners have built in timers or thermostat.
