I think I have the ventilation figured out for this run, as well as the heating.
I've been thinking it over and parts of it have been bugging me. I know from my other tent going that I'm going to have to run heat of some configuration. However, anywhere I place it in the tent it's going to be heating buckets and water as well. No bueno, IMO.
Then I switched gears and thought about the ventilation instead, as I was getting nowhere with the heat.
What I was running into there was the fan/filter will be outside the tent and to the right on a shelf. Typically I would come out of the right side duct on the side at the top center, down into the fan sitting on the shelf. I'm doing this on the other tent, no sweat.
That puts the intake on the bottom left...
Ruh roh... there's plumbing there on this one! What to do now? (Hurry up and get on...)
Back to thinking, and several ideas ran through my head as I vetted each one. I didn't really want duct tubing hanging down the side, or snaking across the floor.
Tent, for reference:
I have available ducts at the top on the left, right and back; on the ceiling in the back right corner; and on the right side at the bottom.
Then it hit me.
Exhaust is typically out the top because hot air rises. Well, I need a little warmth, and LED's aren't giving much to begin with. Why not reverse it all?
The end result is I will be pulling the exhaust from the bottom right duct, and almost right into the fan.
I will then add two passive intakes at the top of the tent on the left side and back.
This gives me the desired cross ventilation, as well as using what little bit of heat the light puts out. Winner winner, chicken dinner.
The heater I will then set outside the tent, and let it blow into the left side duct. I will probably put a board on the top-off res, and sit it there. The back side duct will draw air from up by the joists in hopes of getting some warmer air then from the floor.
The temp probe for the heaters controller will be in the tent, and its height adjusted as needed.
Night time temps are 65F-67F, so not worried about that one bit.
