How to COOL a walk-in closet to room temp?
    #14540186 - 05/31/11 11:01 AM (12 years, 7 months ago)

So the area in which I will be keeping my terrarium will be a walk-in closet, but unfortunately around this time of year it gets VERY hot and humid. Now, I have an air conditioner in the adjacent room that also cools down the closet space where the terrarium will be, but I can't run the AC 24/7.

Does anybody know a cheap or simple way I can keep the closet space at room temperature for my terrarium? Again, it gets pretty hot in there, so any ideas would be appreciated!

you can and will run your AC 24/7, or else  :shrug:

is there central air?  cut a hole in your closet ceiling and run an air duct into it.

I WISH I had central air -- that would solve my problem. But unfortunately I do not. I have an in-wall AC that keeps the room at a good temperature but, again, I can't run that all day every day.

You can get a cool mist humidifyer and put ice cubes in the water to give yourself a nice cool moisture blast...

You should have the terrarium in the AC controlled room.  Hot closets are bad, and not just for the heat.  Closets, unless you keep the door open, will get saturated with stale air very fast.  You want your grow to be in the middle of a well ventilated room.
