Separate AC cooled room supplying air flow???

[usrzero01]

I have my farm in the garage and it get pretty hot in there, specially in the summer.

So what i was thinking is to create a enclosed room in garage or use a grow tent and cool that room and have the air flow intake of the miners air flow coming from the Air Conditioned enclosure via flexible air duct pipes?

Does anyone have any experience with trying to do something like this?


Thanks for any info.

If you ask me, using air conditioning to cool a side room instead of the garage itself might seem silly.  You should think about efficiency.  The goal here is to get rid of excess heat without spending much money to do it and  air conditioners gobble up huge amounts of electricity, so they're not ideal for cheap cooling.  Sometimes you have to think outside the box if you want to maximize profits.

Will it work? Yes.

But when using AC to cool miners keep in mind you are going to burning more power to run them so that cuts into profits.

Also you have to have a spare or risk bad things potentially happening if loose your cooling and the farm keeps running. Miners *should* shutdown at overheat. But should and do are 2 different words.

Also, how is the humidity where you are?

Yes, you can read these topics:

keep a small mining farm cool with only air conditioners.

New cooling setup for my asic room.

yeah the farm runs solidly. enough air in along with some ac in works.

our setup has about 500,000 btu of heat.
the two ac’s do 72,000 btu of cooling.

and tons of fans exhale the heat.

bringing in cool air is okay. but exhaling heat  is important.

how many miners do you have?

Can it work? Of course it can!
But you haven't told us how much heat you're making there, you have 4 S9 or 30 S19 there, when you say summer is that 30C or 45C outside?
The thing is that in extreme situations you might have to spend( depending on the electricity price) too much of a percentage on cooling, so maybe just doubling the air flow would be a cheaper and just as effective solution.

And the machine numbers and their watts will also give a clue on the tent/room solution, I personally would always feel on edge knowing there are 25kw running in a 2 cubic meter oversized pot bag.
