O'k guys I have a few question concerning my grow room,I was wondering what I could use to dump the heat in the room and at the same time draw fresh air back into the grow room......here is my set up...

The room is 9ft long 5ft wide and 8ft high

my grow table that I have my plants on is about 5ftx4ft under a 1000w hps
I am into my 3rd week of flowering and boy is the room getting hot! alot hotter then I anticipated!,I keep opening up the door to the grow room and at most times I leave the door open all day during the lights on cycle,but the security is a bit of a issue considering people pop into the house and I have to close the door to the grow room sometimes for hours until my guest's leave but by then the heat is built up and is very hot!,so with this said I have to make a change in the grow room in order to keep the door closed at all times instead of closing the door every time I hear a knock on the front door lol....

Now before anyone thinks this guy is dumb! to set up a grow room and not prepare!,,,in my only defense lol,my grow room has a attic hatch directly above the grow table and I thought that seeing that hot air rises,I would remove the attic hatch which has a 2x2 opening and let the heat escape into the attic,it worked somewhat but isn't doing the job never the less,so there ya go I thought a little atleast lol..

So the grow room is in the middle room in my house,has no window or no access to fresh air other then opening up the door for hours at a time and even then that isn't really fresh air because that is the air that is just sitting around the house! so here is what I want to do and I need help knowing what exactly what product is there that could take care of my problem.

I was planning on running a heat exaust from the grow room up through the attic seeing that there are several venting plates throughout the attic so the attic can breath,I was planning on hooking up to one of the attic venting plates to exhaust my hot air and then hook up a venting intake from another attic venting plate for fresh air into my grow room!....

So what ventilation machine could I use to get this up and running,the reason I ask this is because I figure that venting the heat up and outward should be no problem,but to suck fresh air from 10 feet from across the attic to the attic hatch then down another 6 feet to reach my plants sounds to me like I would almost need a one of those central air exchangers that are put into new homes!.....is there a smaller machine to run my 9x5 grow room? and are there any 2 in one systems that do both heat out take and fresh air intake?...........Sorry I wrote so much to exsplain my situation but I thought a good in depth exsplanation would give you a better understanding of my situation....

So the question are?
what system could I use for my grow space 9x5?
is there a smaller version of the central air exchanger that newer homes use that would be suitable for my grow room?
Or am I completely thinking in the wrong area? with the central air exchanger?......any how any input or guidance would be greatly appreciated...

Remember I could just pump the hot air straight into the attic and the natural air venting in the attic through the venting plates itself would take care of heat and odor! but what got me thinking mostly is in order for me to run duct work 10 feet across my attic floor from a attic vent,and then down another 6 to 7 feet from the attic hatch itself to the plants on the table I would need a powerful system?or maybe not,to be honest I havent got a clue!? anyhow looking for some solutions...thanking you in advance..
