ok i havent really got around to finishing the whole thing yet, but heres how it works. the air is drawn in from outside by 12" ducting to a 12" fan in the ceiling. the big fan is mounted in a big plastic trunk thats hanging on the wall. it blows air out of the grow room by 12" ducting also. it pulls air in to it from 4" drier hoses. the drier hose run to my cool tubes that pull the air out of the room.

i put the fan in the trunk to make it easier to run multiple hoses. total i need 4 hoses, and making a manifold to run 4 x 4" hoses to that fan would have been a pain. so i stuck the fan in the trunk in essence making the trunk into 1 big big ass manifold. right now ive just got 1 hose running into it, but the others will be added soon. it also made the fan almost silent.

remember it isnt finished yet. the pretty comes later.

this is a cool tube idea ive been playing with. its just a 4"x24" piece of sewage pipe, a few screws, alil tape, and some tin foil. about 10 bucks for everything but the bake around. less than 30.00 total.

its a really snug fit, and i used rubber coated nuts on bolts as stops. i wrapped the ends of the glass with high temp tape to snug it up nice and tight. i drilled a hole on the top and bottom of the pipe right passed the end of where the glass goes. i put 1/4" bols in the hole with a rubber coated nut on it so the glass cant side at all either way.

i mounted my light socket with a L bracket to the pipe as well.
