yeah but how bout just making 2 wholes in the ceiling of the closet so it stays inconspiciuous and you get your hot air out into the attic solves your problem and at worst once your done growing you just patch the 2 little wholes up., shit I poked out the ceiling of my closet just to get wires from my box to the other room for the circuits..lol once the door is closed well nuthin shows.

I am running into the same problem bro. This is the way I'm going to do it. I took out both of my sliding doors for my closet. I have a tarp that is going to be velcroed on around the door frame so I can lift it up with ease. I have 3 120MM pc fans hooked up to the ducting. I cut the exact size of those air ducts into the tarp and duct tape all around it and the tarp to make sure no light will get through. I'm hoping with 1 osicilating fan blowing air in and 3 120 MM fans running air out, it will get rid of my heat when I start flowering. The ducting will be running to the top of the tarp instead of the bottom so I can still roll up the tarp and not have those tubes flying up everytime I want to look at my plants. Hope this was somewhat helpful
