Try filling a cooler with ice and place it in front of a fan.

Maybe set the cooler on a chair or something w/the fan below it, as cold air plummets.

I have been using this method. I freeze 2 liters and gallon size bottles and then set them in a styrafoam cooler or around the base of the plants. Drops the temp a couple of degrees. Run your lights over night when the temps are cooler anyhow. I've tried installing a window ac, but have had a hard time venting the hot air it produces. Good luck.
