Hey all. I'm currently growing in soil but will be switching to hydro in a couple months. I plan to do DWC in a rubbermaid container. It will be in a cabinet in my basement. Im wondering if it would be worth it or even practical to keep my water temps down by running a water pump (in addition to an air pump) with 10-20' of hose running under the cab and along the cold concrete floor then back into the reservoir. I also thought of maybe doing the same thing and running everything past my air intakes instead...I live in Canada and I think the cold floor would be more effective but the air intakes would be easier because it would all be contained in the cab. I don't know if the heat from the pump would offset the whole effort or if it isn't practical to run that long of a hose on a small water pump. Anyone else ever thought of this or tried it?
