No longer need AC - Stealth window intake?

So you're sucking air through the curtain fabric? Do you have a layer of panda plastic behind the curtain too? I guess plywood behind the curtain would work too then, instead of plastic and cardboard huh...

Hmmm, ideas...
wouldnt sucking through a curtain create a duct sized indentation in the curtain's fabric, noticeable from outside?

I use blinds instead of a curtain. I have a finer fabric over the window screen for bugs too, looks just like the screen though.

The fan is on the other side of the blinds, but it looks normal the way it pulls the entire blind in. There is black poly from the top of the window down to the fan.

This is working pretty well, however the AC unit was great. No humidity worries at all.
I might have to get a dehumidifier for the night, it is now raising to about 70 in the flowering room when lights are out, about 45-50 when they are on.

Yeah if using a curtain I think you'd have to have a chicken wire "shield" behind it to keep the intake from making a round dent. I was thinking about blinds last night too, probably a better idea. Thanks Sunseeds! I may switch to this in a few weeks when I do my biannual breakdown.
