Damn Mellow man thats good. How much did your cool tube drop down the temps by? I did one but I only followed half of your directions and it didnt come out good so I think I'm going to do the whole thing like yours so my question is Should I do anything extra or different that you think might work better or is your way "perfect" so to say? I'm having a HUGE heat problem I need to kill like 20 degrees and I dont have to much money left to spend being that I already wasted so much, but I do have enough to follow all your steps all the way through. Thanks Oh how many CFMs was the little inline fan cause mine is 4inch and 80cfms?

I'll try to answer your question here but first you asked what things could you have done different lol,first I need to know what you did first ,I used a inline fan that I bought at home depo! for furnace air ducts to help blow or push the hot air from your furnace to area's of your house that seem to be lacking a consistent heat,the fan helps warm up the cold area's of the house,outside of this fan that I bought i don't know much about fans lol,but I guess you could follow the instructions that I layed out but use a different fan! for the cool tube......I believe my fan was about 80cfms or a little more and had a safe operating tempature of 155 degree's! but keep in mind the fan is sucking and blowing the heat up the vent so fast you the heat from the bulb is actually cooled down instantly,the fan cost me $60.00 canadian or so I believe I would have to go back to the faq thread to see what I had written originally lol................but perhaps you could use the fan you have care to post some picks of your setup and maybe I could help you tweak it a little to get ya some good results......................

As for the heat issue! I certainly had a big heat problem so much infact half of one of my crops turned hermie based on the heat stress my temps at times exspecially in the summer reached 105 ,a hps can be brutual for the heat exspecially a 1000w hps,and in my case 1000w mh 2 1000w hps and at times I have all three running in the same room lol...........even on cool chilly days my grow room would still reach 95 degree's which is horrible! but once I got this setup in place my temps in the room above the top of the canopy of plants reach 78 degree's when lights are on! all day! the fans just seem to work great! they worked so well infact I am 100% happy! I ended up having to use extra hooks and stuff to deal with the extra hardware that was now hooked up to my bulb and hood other then that I have no problems at all and the crop I am getting ready to harvest shows signs of heat stress less plants lol................study the cool tube in the grow faq in this forum and just take your time as you go along.......if you have any questions feel free to ask.
