Well after a LONG night and two pissed off wives, bed at 5:00AM, me and my bro finished the flower side and it now has a platform for the 3x4 tray, insulated ducting on the 1000W hood and A/C line, and overall air exchange system was altered.
I dont really know where to start with this so I think Ill give a rundown on the new ventilation equipment and accessories.
NEW PARTS
500CFM 8 Booster fan (Boosts A/C line to flower side register and provide circulation between rooms when A/C isnt running)
1 x 6x6x6 T splitter (Combines 1000W and 250W hoods heat)
1 x 6 to 4 reducer (To duct from 250W hood)
25 Insulated 6 Ducting (Used for heat and cooling)
6 x 10 square to 6 Duct (Exhaust fans Housing)
12 x 8 square 90degree to 6 Duct (Flower side register housing)
12 x 8 3 way register (defuses air over the tray)
Hood & Circulation Ducting
^Here is where the T combines the two Hoods and exits the roof.
^The heat controlled exhaust and its sensor with a DIY activated carbon filter.
^This is the top of the enclosure where the exhaust fans are housed. The fans are industrial grade axle fans made for exhausting large power cabinets. The two in the back are side by side into the 6 x 10 square to 6 Duct.
^K this is where it may get confusing. In the upper right is the exhaust from 250W hood, the black hole is the same tube that you can see the other end of hanging above the light. The grill is just a passive vent that I didnt want to patch.
^On the far left is the new unfiltered inlet for the 1000W hood, in the middle is black hole tube, in the upper right is the T to exhaust.
So there are the pics this is the circulation of the room.
>Fresh air is brought in right in front of the A/C
>the A/C takes it in and splits it to a 6 (now insulated) and 4 ducts
>the 6 duct, now with a 500cfm always on booster, feeds the air into the flower room via the new 12 x 8 3 way register.
>Air then has three exits.
1-The black hole tube collects warmed air emitted from the hood and puts it into the veg side, this is the only unrestricted path.
2-The BS grill I didnt patch, gives additional area for the Heat Exhaust to pull from.
3-If temperatures get to hot the large exhaust kicks on to draw additional air from the veg side and directly vent the hot air instead of recycling it. That fan mostly has a filter on it to keep out bugs since it doesnt constantly run.
>Air comes from the black hole back into the veg side.
>Air comes from the A/C via 4 duct into the veg side.
>They mix and some is taken back by the A/C.
>The250W hood intakes air from the top of the veg side.
>The 250W hood is now the Main Exhaust and mixes with the 1000W hot air before hitting the dual exhaust fans.
Tray Holder/Seat
^Works Great. Only little snag was that the res was full of nutes and doesnt fit through the door right side up, so it was placed on the veg side and a 2 hole was cut to feed the tubes through. This actually ended up being pretty nice seeing as the main door is on the veg side and nutes can be checked lights on or off.
So thats the rundown let me know what you think!
