Guys I want to know if the heat from the mining rig is healthy or not, I'm starting to get worried because of heat after having 1GH of ETH mining power in my room, it consists of two 🪟 windows and air is flowing in but some times it seized too.

not very healthy.
but a lot depends on the pcb board heat levels.
ie 100c on the board may off gas vocs.
have fun detecting it.
quality voc meters are costly. 400 usd or more.

I see BTC as the super highway and alt coins as taxis and trucks needed to move transactions.

No. Its not If your really pulling around 3 kwh in a room that is simply too much.
The PM 10 at least the organic part will touch the hottest part of your gpu and simply its like for you to live in an highway.
in short ? you are increasing your chance to die from cancer around 10 fold.
immediate solution ? drop the gpu temps below 50
long term ? relocate your rigs

Is there any possibility to move your rigs to another room?
In 2017 to 2018 I had 25 GPUs running in my room, and even in cold times it was hell, no kidding It's the heat, the air, humidity, noise and lights
All these together will reduce your quality of life and it's serious, I'll tell the least obvious things already said to you, the noise of fans, the lights where you sleep and the constant heat will lead you to a bad state of mind. Try to change the room
With 1Ghs I think it's reasonable to put 2 ventilators to make airflow between 2 windows, but this is just temporary solution.

I don't understand the question but I like the heat in the winter.

Setting up a 1GH mining rig in your room is too much unless you use 3090s only and your room has AC installed, what type of GPU do you have in your room? I'm also mining in my room but only have a 400MH rig, the RiG is positioned to the window and blower fans are sensing the heats out, try doing the same or change your mining rig position(another room).

I have similar hardware. I keep it on the balcony as it has a heating problem. I replaced the fans with quiet ones because of the noise of the power supplies. I spaced each GPU 25cm apart for the GPU's heat issue. Despite this, the temperature rises significantly. I reduce the heat here by opening the entrance and exit windows of the balcony. In the winter it's fine, but in the summer I run it at lower settings to lower the GPU temperature.

What types of GPUs are those? I'm not sure if placing a mining rig on the balcony is safe because of dust and other problems flowing through the air, are you sure this is the perfect way to tackle your heat issue.

The dust on the fan will surely gonna built up fast overtime plus other outside factor that can affect the rig such as humidity. Proper ventilation is the key to well maintained the farming rigs. It’s additional cost yet it will saves you a lot of money from maintenance unlike to save few bucks on ventilation then later on your rig will break down due to overheating.

I dont know how effective this heat is to the human body but if it's too much how can you sleep in such a room overnight? High temp is bad for the human body I don't expect you to withstand that, it's either you abandon the room or you move all the mining rigs to a new location, health is wealth.

Sleeping in a 90f or 32c room if the humidity is low can be done. The real danger is the gear off-gassing since temps are 70c or more. My garage has 12 gpus they do about 2000 watts, but the air does not come into my bedroom. On may 1 I will reduce the garage down to 1000 watts or so.

I have 4 towers consisting of Nvidia Gtx 1070, Nvidia Gtx 1060, Rx570. These have been working on the balcony since 2018. I regularly clean the fan and cooler blocks. I have lost 2 fans by my own fault so far. Other than that, I've never had a fan problem. The humidity in my area is very low. Since there is not much moisture, only dust forms on the cooling blocks.

You will know once the heat is too much for you hahaha, you don't have to be warned about this because it will be so unbearable for you to stay in such room full of heats, no matter how strong you are there is a limit of heat that the human body can withstand.

That depends on the amount of heat and that depends on the amount of cards that you have.Running for example a room full of like 12-20 Rx 6600 XT which are some of the coolest card available at a normal RPM of their fan speed like 40-50% will not be a problem at all but having 12-20 GDDR6X card in the same ambient it surely will be a problem and will not be very healthy either.It all depends on the equipment that you have and how good you are cooling them,there is no exact rule or exact answer for this.

voc meter in a room with two windows? what are you going to measure? It is possible to mine in an apartment, but then you need to take care of a good door so that noise does not interfere and that there are no high temperatures, because your neighbors will complain about the hot floor.
