Indoor Hot Tent! how to get temps down?

[gettingreen]

So I have an intake and outake vents and it´s OK for now but I have to move my tent to another location where it is very hot. Like 40c during the day. The intake will be blowing 40c air into the tent! Anyone know of a vent I can get that blows cold air into the tent? I am in Europe....so a company that can ship to spain would be best.

I find that putting cold water in the humidifer helps. Just an FYI for anyone who has a similar problem. But that won´t be enough when I move my tent...

tent: 120x120x200cm
out vent: 300 m3/h
In: 145/187 m3/h

That's 104 degrees F coming in, plus heat from your lights. That will be devastating to the plants and in time, will probably kill them. Their growth and yield will certainly suffer. I don't see anything that will work short of an air conditioning unit. The room you have the tent in will need to be air conditioned so you are drawing cold air from within the room through your tent. You don't mention what kind of lights you are using. Even LEDs will raise the ambient temp in the tent 4-5 degrees, CFLs even more. Forget about trying to run HPS in that environment. Your temps inside the tent will likely be well over 110 degrees.

2 types of AC units you can use

You can use a regular window air conditioner as a tent air conditioner.

Or use the existing vents and install a portable air conditioner inside the tent.

Amazon sells the window units upwards of $100 and portables upwards of $300 in the US. Your selection in Spain may vary.
