hi guys and girls,
for my upcomming batch of babies i will need AC unit as i run 4x400w in 6m2 room. Somehow, i always got to do the show over the winter months so i never needed AC, but now i have no other choice, and have encountered problems...
my first thought was the simplest one - movable unit which i just place and make hot air exhaust into my exhaust vent...but as i was searching the stores to buy one, non of these have autorestart function, so they can continue working on same parameters as they were before timer shutts it down (during lights off).
So my main question is if i leave it always on, so it keeps certain temperature which would be the same night and day, would that make any "harm" to the babies? I've always kept temps lower when the lights are off, and if the temps are the same will it interfere with their natural cylcle? I believe there shouldnt be any bigger issues but would not like to invest in this only to figure that its not ok when i see problems with babies...
my other option is normal AC with external unti/engine, but i cannot go explaining people what is this one for...so i thozught to put external unit on attic but all people i talked to advised me against it because it would be too hot for it there, even considering the fact that attic has ventilation holes...
