Hi.

Does this work:

10,000 BTU portable a/c unit, cooling a 1000W HPS in a 4' x 6' x 8' room (192 cubic feet), exhausting air 20' UP through the attic and out the roof. The unit's exhaust is roughly 250 CFM.

If this doesn't work, could someone give me suggestions on how to make it work? For example, what size a/c unit would work? Or, could I 'assist' the unit by installing an inline fan half way up the ducting, at around 10'? The problem with this latter solution is I don't know how to sync the inline fan with the a/c unit, so it will be running on all the time while the a/c unit might be off. Any way around this?

Thank you very much.
