Finally, a safe and very efficient way to water-cool your entire grow room! It consists of a high-quality heat-exchanger with a strong molded plastic housing. One side of the housing is designed to install over a 6" air-cooled reflector duct flange, and as an option the opposite side can be attached to 6" air ducting (depending on inline fan placement). Air from your indoor garden is either pushed or pulled through the reflectors with an inline fan and then passed over the Ice Box heat exchanger. Cold water is circulated through the heat exchanger, cooling the air before it exits right back into the indoor garden area. The longer the tubing the higher the pump. But you don't want to use too high of a pump, due to the fact that it may not allow adequate time for the water to chill. If humidity is an issue in your room, you may want to put the reservoir outside the room.

Features:

Engineered for maximum efficiency

Allows you to keep a sealed room which keeps your CO2 in and pests and pathogens out

Water approximately 10 degrees cooler than the room temp will eliminate the bulb heat from a 1000 watt lamp

Water approximately 20 degrees cooler than the room temp will reduce or even eliminate the need for a/c

Can be connected directly to the reflector or can be wall mounted with optional wall mount kit

Recommendations / Equipment Needed:

For proper function the Ice Box must be installed on the exiting air duct flange, not the incoming air!

Gardens with 50% humidity or higher may require dehumidification to avoid condensation of the equipment and water lines. This can be solved by using a dehumidifier and there are water-cooled units available

Air-cooled reflector and inline fan with approximately 250 CFM for maximum efficiency

Approximately 250 cfm of airflow is needed to properly cool the fixture.

Pump sized at 300-500 GPH with 8-10 feet of lift/head pressure

Chiller size per 1000 watts: 1/4HP Minimum, 1/3HP Optimal

With properly sized chiller, reservoir size of 25 gallons is sufficient for almost any set up

For optimal performance use one IceBox per reflector

Designed to use with 1/2" tubing
