Check out the new room. It has been quite a while, 2 months, we've been getting together to work on this for it to get to this point. Thanks for all the help RIU.org

Is my boy telling all you fools thanks for giving me the knowledge
Is from the outside looking in through the door way. We installed this wall as you can see from the unfinished doorway
Strait back through the door way on the back wall is an 18" shelf that extends the width of the room. flouros and CFL are mounted in this area that will be sectioned off for cloning and veg.
My DIY filter is mounted
To my exhaust fan - 435cfm - all ducting is 6". Intake in the back ground. This is ran from the laundry room ceiling through insulated duct.
This is the bottom of the intake down tube.a

Shitty thing is We are having temp problems. 91 deg F. The light isn't really the prob. The fan's capacity is too high so I need to wire a variable speed switch and get a portable unit. Looking at a 12000btu. The light is an issue - the wiring is crossed on the ballast or something because the light housing/case is carrying a charge.

Nice! I see someone has a basement.......must be nice! I had the same problem with my room, the fan was sucking too much air out of the room. I put it on a timer and it stays below 83 on the hot days. I just run it for 10 mins every hour. But if your fan is acting as an exhaust for the room and the exhaust for the light, you might have to play around with it.

Don't sweat it bro, it just takes time to dial everything in. Looking good!

ouch, how old is the light? I know you've had countless arguments with people of the light, but I'd just get a new one. Help you sleep better at night. The newer ballasts are also alittle cooler too, which may help your heat issue alittle.

Storage room/The New Office.LOL.
A wire had been nicked and was touching the hood assembly. I just ordered new electrical internals for the light. New light in effect Thursday.

So far we are under $1500 for this room, but it's to the point it doesn't matter anymore. I'm itching to ROLL!

I know all about the attic work though. I had to limit the amount of time I spent up there because of the heat. Also to run the duct there is a small gable way that connects the house to carport and storage....what a pain in the ass dragging myself on my belly through that area to run the duct work. Thank God that is over.

Not bad, not bad at all. I shutter everytime I think about what I spent on mine. It will all be worth it in the end!
