    Your growing 12 plants right. There is something called ADF Anti Detection Film. It reflects the same as mylar but it also reflects and absorbs heat. Go get some.

    can you get some bigger office style fans in there that blow cold air that should help a bit
    or make a cool tube and suck the heat straight from the light straight outside of the room look at this post http://boards.cannabis.com/showthread.php?t=38520
    cheers all

    I once read a good idea for heat covering:

    Get thick pieces/slabs of foam... the ones that are 4 or 6 inches thick. Then, just line your walls and roof with it...

    Good idea turtle, then the heat wont escape and it'll be conceled in just that room. Maybe next time dont grow so much and maybe get a smaller light.

    they sell this stuff very cheap at Home Depot.. in huge 4x8 sheets..

    You can always get a FANTECH inline fan and blow all the heat into your HOME....
