You should see it in person. I'm not sure if its even gonna fit in there as it 42 and 3/4 inches flange to flange and the flanges should be parallel to the 4ft walls so that only leaves me 6" and I have 2 6" ducts to hook to it. . .

No worries, we all start somewhere. . .

so with these hoods we could run multiple hoods in a sealed co2 room and no ac? now thats bad ***.

I would tend to think that the orientation of the bulb would not reduce the heat in any significant way. . .

^The thicker the glass, the more its distorted. If light passes through a medium (glass) its refracted and the spectrum changes. If it passes through a round lens (cooltube) it is bent open and the intensity changes.

Of you can cool it, parabolic with vertical bulb like these are the best, when used in warehouse grows I have seen over 1.5 grams per watt. Zero light goes up.

Good luck!

But, why use a hood? Better give it a try sometime with no glass, hood, tube, bat-wing, reflector or UFO. Because it WORKS !!

That looks pointless. Just more glass. . .

I wish I had a light meter so I could get some data on this change. . .
