Oxygen regulator

I have a sealed room I'm considering using for mycology. If anyone can point me to good info on equipment for regulating oxygen levels it would be much appreciated.
I'm just looking into it, not even sure if it's feasible.

The alternative is to vent the room, but that will require more heat. It's something I'm considering, just trying to get an idea of what's possible and cost analysis.

A sealed room is not necessary or even recommended for mycology. IF your lab procedure is good you will not get contamination.
Unless you are growing with nutritious substrate (and even if you are you should be colonizing it in vitro) you will only get contamination if your spawn is dirty.

It's not a contamination issue. I have a sealed room that was used for both plants and fungi and was thinking about using it just for fungi, but was wanting to not cut holes for air exchange.
Using the CO2 sensor to operate an exhaust system would be ideal for that though. Oxygen supplementation would end up being the more expensive option.

I've decided to use a different location but I switched from timer to sensor for plants and my tanks were lasting a lot longer. Plus it was nice to know what the CO2 levels were.
