Will this keep a 36"x20"x62" tent cool if using a 400w hps? it would be a non cool tube light

The fan is powerful and should have no problem keeping the area cool, but keep in mind in high humidity it can get clogged after a month or so.

I run 2 of these in an 8 foot by 4 foot by 8 foot room, 1 for intake air and 1 for exhaust. These flow more then enough to keep the room cool depending on temps outside the grow room of course.

Can't answer precisely because I don't have the specs on your existing tubes. These are 3000k color temperature which is warm white not the garish blue white of higher color temps. Light output should be the same...they are both 32 watt.

I have the I power 600 watt 6" cool hood,it weighs around 30 pounds with glass,bulb and then attach ducting to both sides..it holds very well,even pulling down on the rope ratchets and not securing the rope when I pull down putting extra pressure and it still holds strong. Not to mention the fact I have a 4 foot 2 bulb t5 fixture hanging inside for supplemental light as well. You can not go wrong with this product....and in case I forgot to mention my carbon filter weighs an additional 17 pounds...all this is suspended from the roof of this tent......not a single problem.

My shed is 10 x 16 and it's okay but not great. It's not like having a 60w lightbulb. I can find things I'm looking for but I would not want to rely on it for doing any work.

I used a 4" inline exhaust 100 cfm with t5 light...that was enough to keep the tent at around 80degrees or less...if you are using hps...you might need a little more pull...intake fan isn't necessary...just a small clip fan to keep the air moving

they do put off a lot of heat, i leave my tent open for the light cycle. and close it at lights out.

I would go bigger because you're room has almost 400 cubic feet. You want to turn ask the air in the room over at least once probably more per minute. Also the fan you are looking at is not strong enough for that filter let alone the one you really need. In that size of a room I would go much larger because I assume you are trying to cool lights with this set up as well and I don't think that this combo would be cable of pulling enough air over your bulb to keep anything bigger than a 400 w cool enough to not cause problems in the grow area. Speaking fun experience you need your fan to be rated significantly higher cfm than the filter to sustain enough airflow to keep the light cool as well. Be patient and purchase the right materials off the bat or you will end up purchasing new equipment that should have been bought the first time. Just my 2 cents. A lot of money can be wasted because you cheaped out up front. Save the money you need for high quality equipment and you will get much better results. That being said this filter is great for the amount of cubic feet that it is designed for. Just go with the 400 cfm range one and you will be happy aslong as your fan is not cheap and can pull through the filter as well as cool your light. Peace.

No sir. It will blow the bulb. The smallest bulb you can use is a 400watt. The ballast is dimmable. It does 100%, 75%, and 50% power. 50% of 600 is 300. I have used a 400watt with it and it did fine. Good luck, great grows.

To use as a light tube? Yes. Also, With a 600w HPS bulb and ~ 400cfm of airflow the glass is cool enough to touch.

no way. Im using it on a single 1000 watt hps with cool tube and it does the job as long as my ambient temps stay around 60-65 F. Ambient temps are really the big factor. This is a great fan though.

No. It would never even fit given it much larger than a normal light. You need a 400 watt HPS unit to run it.

I can not say for sure but I would recommend against it. The light has a built in cooling fan and I expect the sealed housing would cause it to heat up.

This fan is amazing. If you go to the CAN website you can find the specs. I used it to cool a 400W HPS light and circulate air in a 3 X 3 X 6 foot tent. It did this on the lowest speed with ease. I have the 6" Max Fan and it is first rate.

I have two 600 watt "APOLLO" lights for a 10' X 12' room and this 400cfm fan does the job! For your 8' x 12' x 7' room, this will be more then adequate. Keep a thermometer in your room to keep track of your temperature. With your 4-T5 lights the room might even be too cool...

no. it wouldn't really provide enough light for that large of an area. a 400w would probably work for your system. 3 of these bulbs would give you 375w.

It depends on the bulb. I have large spotlight type lights and used the 410W. 310W would be for a smaller bulb.

I've got a 6x24 carbon filter and fan ,,a hood with 6in cool tube and duct work coming from fan to tube..without a problem..great tent..
