Grow room/grow tent portable AC question

I bought an 8,000 BTU portable AC to help cool down my 5x5 tent. I'm planning on putting the AC outside of the grow tent, with a fan in front of the AC pushing the cold air towards the open door. My room where the tent is has a square footage of 144, and the AC cools up to 200. Should I put the fan inside the tent blowing the hot air into the room, or should I go with the plan of pushing the air into the tent with AC/fan?

Where are you exhausting the heated air? Back into the room? The compressor itself is a heat generator.

It has an exhaust hose that I plan on exhausting through the doorway. I have no door on the room, just a tarp, so I will run the hose directly into the hallway behind the tarp.

As long as the hot exhaust is outside the room the tent is in, the cool air is being blown into the room (or the tent), and the A/C is strong enough to cool the room AND the heat from the grow equipment, it will work. Without a door it won't be very efficient though.

Your just going to dump the hot ass ac exhaust air inside your house and not outside?

Or anyone else's house. It's a home not being used.....

And not going to be used ever if you dump hot humid exhaust air into a house.

Fail, epic!

That's the reason ppl dont rent houses to growers. No respect at all
