Forgot to update about the tap water. After being in the bucket for a day or so, the chlorine smell and taste is gone, cool. However the ppm's were still above 300. Like Rusty said, I should try it on one and see how it goes.

As for my heat issue, it's all psychological at this point. These were the factors that I didn't take into account when I thought I had a temp prob - Outdoor temp: turns out we had a spike in temperature these last couple of days. This week temps should be back down to low 70's upper 60's. And the temp in the cab didn't really get any hotter, I just moved the plants and sensor closer to the light. By doing this it should have been obvious that the temp gauge was going to read a higher temp. To help combat the stagnant air on the outside of the cab, I am using a 12" oscillating fan. I tried the frozen gal jugs but now I feel like a dumbass for even thinking that it would make more than a 1 degree difference. Yeah, it didn't. So after reading Rusty Trichomes "Dealing With Heat Issues" thread, I know everything is going to be allllllll right!!!!!!

Thanks for your help Rusty, really appreciate it!!!!
