Extraction underground and out.

[Cunning]

I havent a clue what the heat source from 2x 600w lamps would give out if just flowing out the side of the shed.? Compared to a tumble dryer.
Yes will defiantly get some chilli germinating Bud.!

Me either but I think it's a good idea what you're planning with the extraction. I think it was the Edwardians that had greenhouse heaters involving fires and hot water pipes. Clever stuff

6" terrain pipe solvent weld (glue) or push fit if you prefer this is the soil pipe grey colour size on the back of your loo( if you extract into a drain soil vent pipe. Also if you extract into a chimney it will be a flue liner of similar dia.
IMO 6 " would be ok. But a tip if you want to increase volume in ductwork pipe work runs run two 6" pipes coupled together you have them side by side branched (swept tees) designed to move fluids in desired directions. Big job dude.
For security have you thought about exhausting near an all ready known hot spot?,for example my exhaust is near my boiler flue terminal and tumble dryer outlet,

Also if you do run underground run an extension lead on the inside use you imagination with the correct plugs on a board and you have power in your green house dude

To be fair, that winter heating... you could grow a beautiful green house! And then that's a good excuse for nutrients, soil/coco/whatever, people don't question garden waste so much... works well for me!

Get a compost heap next to the groom as well, handy during smelly time!

Thanks for the tips regarding the pipework mate.!
Yea thought about doing something with the heat source like that but just nothing near the groom shed bud. (very good idea i must say.)

Thanks

Great idea venting into a greenhouse. Makes the GH nice and warm for growing too.

Possibly look at having the pipe a little deeper. I'd run it at least 6 inch under the soil and possibly insulate with bubble wrap.

8" should easily cool 1200w of light.
