Lighting with 2-600watt HPS and heat???
Thanks!
I never run the lights without AC, even in the winter.. The couple of times when the AC unit tripped the breaker during the summer, it got over 95 quickly. Lights just generate a lot of heat.
In your case, make sure you can suck fresh air in and if possible pull air out near the ceiling using a fairly large squirrel cage fan, probably a 6". You should also have a temp controller that will turn the fan on and off as needed. Make sure to use fans in the room to keep the air moving.
Good luck!Farmer Rich Reviewed by Farmer Rich on . Lighting with 2-600watt HPS and heat??? I am looking for the experinced with information about running 2-600watt HPS and the heat produced in thier room. I have plenty of experince with lighting and heat but not in this small of an area. The full room size is 10'x13'x7.5'. I will be using only 28sq feet of the area. The room temperature is 65deg without lights and 70 deg with 1000watts of CFL's. This is also with only one box fan blowing in fresh air on the ladies from the doorway. Here is my main concern!!! Can I get away with Rating: 5
