i run a portable tankless water heater for co2.i have a utility pump in a 18 gal tote filled 3/4 with water.i have an atlas 3 co2 controller in the grow.when co2 gets under my setting,the controller turns on its outlet.the pump is plugged into the outlet.when water flows,the water heater turns on causing co2.the heater only runs for about 20 seconds.the water goes back to the tote after being heated.i have not added water in about 6 months of running.i am on my second tank of propane(20 pounder/gas grill size)
the water heater costs 95 on amazon.
tote was 10-12 bucks
utility pump 40 bucks
titan atlas 3 co2 controller 350
i tried using a 5 gallon bucket for water res but once the water gets too hot,the water heater will not turn on.
the tote i am using's lid snaps on so water doesnt evaporate.
i am running 6 plants in veg and 6 flowering perpetual.
i am running around 2k of cxb 3590 led lights.
i exchange air between flower and veg so i only need 1 mini split,1 co2 generator and 1 dehumidifier.it also helps stabilize temps and humidity during lights out.
the titan controller has been good.there are cheaper ones since that is the biggest cost to do this.
