Yep, increase the flow setting on your regulator (about double what it is) or turn the timer on to double the duration, either one should get you closer to your goal.
...Like, exact same results, which seems really weird.
...I say sealed but in reality there is an exhaust fan at the top of the unit always going.
may i ask what kind of maintenance you mean. i don't personally use one of these but my buddy does and he never complains about it...
BTW i added the word friends in my original post its what i meant to say
Ok, I'll give you three guesses!
CO2 and ANY exhausting of air basically don't mix. If you can't keep your room cool with AC or air cooling hoods, you can't use CO2. The room must not exchange air with an outside source in order to keep the CO2 in!
Ok thanks, point taken, I understand. Not sure if this makes a difference, maybe u can tell me but the room that the 3 cabs are in is sealed if that makes a difference. I have a water cooled A/c cooling that 10x10 room that the cabs are in and that's the same room that the air cooled lights and the inside of each cab exhaust too.
What do u think? Any hope for me achieving my goal?
Sorry man, stoned and forgot to "not try and be a dick!" lol forgive me!
Ok that DOES make a big difference. Hmm, lemme think. So your 10X10 is a lung room of sorts, and doesn't intake or exhaust any air? If your CO2 concentrations aren't going up its being depleted or leaked, but I'm afraid I can't tell you which. Is there any negative pressure intakes near your door? Like a furnace return? Or do you have central heat blowing air into the room? Some air is probably getting in or out somehow.
What air are you bringing in for your air cooled lights? If you want your AC to run less, ideally try pulling through the window and vent into the attic (so the hood air never touches the room air, no smell/CO2 leaks if you PUSH air thru hoods!) I know this isn't possible everywhere but it's good data.
Cool deal on the water-cooled ac, longtime fan though I haven't tried one yet. I thought about trying one of the heatexchanger.ca units with a chiller and a small res, so it wouldn't use a lot of amps in the winter. Whats the power draw and water consumption of yours?
Hehe no prob man, yeah I use incense sticks to search for leaks, takes just the right light but chase em down and use duct tape or spray foam to close it up. How long does your Co2 tank last you?
