Hey people.
I wanted to ask around to see what those of you running a “sealed” room (whatever degree of properly sealed you achieved, doesn’t need to be a perfect, lab environment.) are using for air conditioning - how much cooling (btu or tonne).
If anyone is up for sharing their setup, including at least some detail of the major loads, and how much cooling they’ve installed and how well it does for their situation, I’d appreciate it.
-Size of room (L x W x H)
-Wattage and type of lighting
-Amount of dehumidification (pints/day, or watts, or amps, something)
-“Climate” or general region (country, or just a general idea of if it’s cold there, winter, desert, humid, etc?)
-Maybe you need it to heat (heat pump option) in the cold months, you can share that if you want.
-and/OR an overall BTUs you calculated for your room and for the AC to need to deal with (and how did you arrive at the number, did you multiply the total watts by a constant? 3.5, 4?)
Thanks for anyone who takes the time to share any info about what’s worked for them. I’m trying to get an idea of what others have gone with and what’s worked for them, in a similar situation as me.
Thanks.
