Hey everybody, i just created a quick picture to make it much more simpler to understand what im trying to accomplish, Which Setup would be best ? Those are the only 2 windows in the room & as you can see they pretty inline with the grow cabinet which tells me if i exhaust into the room im going to have quite alot of heat sitting right at the top. Anybody want to throw in a few comments, that'd be great. : )

Modified picture below, there is a table right beside the cabinet on its left just below the window, so im going to be stacking boxes till the top, so i thought possibly i can use these boxes to bring in fresh air or both.

I vote for setup #1 by far.

Gotta get that hot and humid air outta there.
90 times out of a hundred, I would rather pull intake air from and through a buffered house, instead of pulling it directly from the outdoors.
Setup #2 will save you money on your heating bill in the winter time though. But without knowing the climate where your at, I would not pull intake directly from the outside.

Thank you bro, i was thinking the same, like i put in the Modified pic with the boxes i was thinking of just making a hole into the box and then leading it outside from the otherside of the box, i was also thinking and seeing as im breathing co2 in the room it should be a good thing for the plant lol then extracting all that out, Bro during the day its about 68 F and drops down to about 45 at night and then in the morning early hours we could say maybe about 5-10 F.

Im also sleeping in the room & a 6" inline fan is gonna blow up so much heat in the room im definitely going to get sick from all the hot air lol, like you said SETUP #1 FTW then. Just got to figure out a good way to mount everything with the least bends etc, forgot to add i have a 5 speed controller that comes with the inline fan, so im planning on sitting that outside the cabinet with the digital thermometer, ill be adjust it myself until i get a automatic temperature fan controller unit.

I have two 4.7 inch PC fan filters , i was thinking if that would be enough for the intake ? I have two 90 cfm PC fans that i can attach for intake although im not sure if that will funk with the airflow of the inline fan. Thank you man appreciate ! :hump:
