Insulated ducting ? Heat and sound problems ! !

i have a 1mx1mx2m tent with a 600 w cooltube .i to was haveing heat problems was advised to buy.a bigger fan of some guys on here.so bought a 6inch rhino filter fan.no more heat problems.mine is set up like this carbon filter-fan-cooltube-ducting to out side tent. the fan is a little noisy thats my next thing to fix.

if you cover where say's (other side of y open ) you should have a better flow through the cool tube so their should be less heat from bulb that should help some at least

I also think you should vent outside of the closet your tent is in

I wish it were that easy, but that's not an option when I'm under high-stealth, hence the closet is boxed-in.

Or

Buy an additional duct, connect it to your passive intake and into the other side of your Y adapter.

What would recycling the already-hot air do to pass through the tent again?

I like your thinking, but unfortunately running ducting off an AC into the closet is not an option when I'm under high stealth, but I will definitely consider getting an AC to cool the exterior bedroom.

Whats a good way to add Co2 to the room? Can I run it through the ducting?

Amazing yield, I hope mine will be as successive.

I hope your wife recovers man, sorry to hear. Keep her medicated!

Thanks for the input everyone, but I haven't had much feedback on the actual topic of the insulated ducting (with the insulation fuzzy stuff inside?) for heat and sound absorption.
