All is well, now :]. I have my hood set up like a cool tube. I have my vortex blower pulling air through my filter, pumping it through the hood, out the other end, and then through my panda. And a passive intake. As for the holes, no, not in the wall. In the panda I stapled to the inside of the closet door frame. I was still a little worried about all the noise I was making during the construction period, as all the apartments are setup the same.. but that was a few weeks ago, so I'm assuming all is well. I ditched my extra inline fan(at least until summer) and am still operating in the same temp range. Peace
evilgunny Reviewed by evilgunny on . Venting issue Alright, I'm currently running a 600 watt HPS light. I am using a Super Sun 2 hood, with the tempered glass, and a Lumatek digital ballast. Heat is a problem, atm my highs are 85 degrees, but this is using a 177 cfm Vortex blower to push air in, with a passive exhaust. Thing is, the vortex is about to be hooked up to a can filter when I start my 12/12 cycle. So I bought a 6 inch Ecoplus, and am planning on hacking a hole (okay, sawing a square in the top right and bottom right corners) in Rating: 5
