Setting up a large bedroom with Gavitas LED.. Do I need air exchange??

Wife and I just landed in Oklahoma, we are waiting for our commercial growers license, we’re in the process of a Next Generation Greenhouse build .

While we are waiting, I wanted to do an LED run in our climate controlled bedroom, we have central air, with a vent that has an option for fan and recirculation of air .. That being said, will I need ducting or will I be able to get away with just a dehumidifier? Thx in advance, LED’s are all new to me ..

Room size, watts used for lightning?

My guess... you can get through with just a/c and a dehumidifier plus co2@600-1000ppm.

Two Gavita 1700 640 watters ... The room is 20/18 it’s huge .. I’ll just be using the center ... So a dehumidifier, a large co2 tank and a regulator??? Want to keep it simple... Thx for getting back...

If you're going to run CO2 close off your central HVAC to run a closed system. Place a large carbon filter with an inline fan in the room and run it a high speed to control the smell. You'll definitely need a good dehumidifier (I use Quest) and a window mounted AC/Heat unit. LG makes what the call a window mounted mini-split. Good luck!

Fans to circulate the air are necessary but I don't vent except when I open and close the door. So far so good. :good:
