I 've only been in hydro for under a year and I 've yet to get a res temp of 70F, usually stays about 60-65 and no probs......but the room never gets over 80 on a HOT day with the ac and running 2000wts of unvented hps......ugh<---reminds me I need to get them sealed and vented, would save on ac.......again...

Anyway, stoned again, or is that still...? I was thinking of something like what your saying, but why not even just use the fridge as a place for your res? There must be way to be able to drill through the thing safely somewhere......but I dont know, why aren't I hearing of people doing this then..... I do have the room for it<----outside the grow area; just pump from there? At the very least a person could freeze their own water in it, or even chill it.....you'd think.... I really want to get my temps down in the high 50's, would be awesome-just from what I hear......

So could someone please tell me why you cant use a fridge like that? What would be the down-falls that I am not thinking of or seeing?

Thanks! Hope your all having a great 420!!

Just put together my DIY AC .......... used coil copper air cooler thing, frezzer tubbing, pump and my mini fridge.

I am running test on it to see how low i can get the temps. Right now there above 75 with lights off so i need to get that down to atleast 65 with lights off so lights on will not get over 82 running co2 i should be ok with those numbers.

Dam didnt spend any money on this DIY AC unit i already had everything around my house wooo hoo gotta love that
