Ventilation help - Please share your thoughts/ideas

Discussion in 'Grow Room Design/Setup' started by silent_bob_2002, Jan 12, 2014.

  1. Hi all,
     
    I'm trying to get some input on ventilation. I attached a rough sketch of what will hopefully be a fabulous grow room.  Keep in mind that all of the incoming (and exhausted) air are both vented from (/to the) outside. Also, I give no fucks about smells vacating the room, only concerned with air quality/flow.
     
     
    With that in mind, what I am specifically interested in hearing about:
     
     
    • Your thoughts on the setup thus far. Is it overkill? Should any changes be made?
     
    • Passive vs. active intakes. Which is better for the air-cooled lights, and why? The room?
     
    • Static pressure. I have ruled out positive pressure, but is it best to go with negative room pressure, or balanced? What about inside the cool tubes? Why?
     
    • Air conditioning / dehumidification. I live in the Pacific Northwest. Is there a better way to cool these lights (and room), without spending $1,500+ on A/C and dehu? Or will they be necessary anyways; work them into the design now?
     
    And anything else of relevance you think could help during the design phase. Thank you in advance..
