What is the right way to vent an exhaust fan from a 1000w grow light? I've read that you should vent it into your basement to foil thermo imaging. But if i did it that way i would have to cut holes down two stories, and it doesnt seem practical. I guess if this is the only way to go security wise i don't have a choice. Also is it safe to run a 1000w light in a g.r thats (6'x27'x9') it seems like it's gonna melt the walls (lol) which are right beside my reflector on two sides. Thanks.
 
Ok, i guess no-one is gonna add to this one. I've moved my g.r anyway so it's not really an issue anymore.
 
The cost of thermal imaging is insane.. My understanding is that you can't use a thermal imager without a warrent. Of course, I'm sure they can do whatever they want. I vent mine out a hollowed out airconditioner. I live on the second floor though.
 
Yes.. they do vent hot air, just not air that smells like weed .. lol....
