There are portable air conditioners that have an exhaust hose. The stock hose that comes with the unit can be extended or modified to fit almost any contingency.

You can cut a small hole in the ceiling of your grow area. Plumb a hose from there to the nearest window or to your attic.

Where are you expelling the air from your air cooled hood?

Is there some reason that wouldn't work?

How high are your temps? Keep us posted. Take care and be safe.

Some air cooled systems dont really have a good seal at the seams. I tape all my seams on the hood and insure the air flowing through your light comes from an out side cooler source - not your warm grow room. Make it a closed system if it's not already. Also, if possible increase the amount of clean air flowing into the area generally. A bigger intake fan may be? Although an air conditioner would be your best bet in a really warm grow room, smaller set ups can easily get away with proper ventilation. Rooms can be a little warmer if there's allot of air flow. I also run everything at night sucking cooler outdoor air into my room. Good luck and let us know how things go.

I would say get the portable a/c. I just got one and exhausted it up my chimney. Works great, my growroom is the most comfy place in the house now. http://www.marijuanapassion.com/forum/showthread.php?t=43816
