some of you might already have these equipment or have experience with it.

i have a 3x3x5'8 tall closet. and i got a 1000w econo cool. will a 465 cfm be strong enough to take out the heat?

there will be a duct hose connected to the econo cool and 465 cfm fan to blow air outside

465 cubic feet per minute. how many cubic feet is your grow space? If youre just using that blower to vent your hood that is more than enough. running it through a carbon filter?

its 30 cft, and its sucking all the hot air in the closet and also blowing the hot air of the light outside. so the fan is inside the closet suckin the air inside. i'm not sure if its strong enough because of the 1000w. i got a 170 cfm blowing inside for a little more info.

when it was running 1000w and 170 cfm (not connected to cool reflector), it was hitting 95-100 F. so i know i need to cool it down, and the heat is comming off the light. so is 465 cfm strong enough to SUCK, all that air out or do i need to BLOW that air out with the 465 cfm?

idk what you mean by central heat.

Good lord, I should hope the 465 will do the trick. If not, get that light out of the cabinet and do a room grow, instead.
