    I've read a few people on here say they just heat the house up with extracted air from groom....but how do you stop the damp and mold kicking in.
    I was getting it from only 4"fan n duct n only the heat from a 250w hps.

    As long as the air is circulated & fresh air gets in and vent is not pointed at walls etc & free from obstruction, you wont get damp/mould, its when it condenses against cold walls it becomes a problem and mould starts to grow...is why it usually grows behind all that crap at the side of peoples wardrobes...uncirculated air

    This is a fairly standard read out but I track the bedroom read outs and adjust as best I can the house.

    So maybe it leads straight out to an air brick with duct...like in the image?

    Thats where the dampness was the last time. Behind an old chest of drawers. Easiest place to hide it.
    If a go with just venting into living room...no a gotta think how a can direct it to an open window, but hide it well without obstructing it.
    Hmm....this is brutal. A thought getting a wee flat, ad be sorted. But still lots to consider lol

    This is that vent thing thats on my wall.
    I looked about the side of the building...there is no air bricks.
    There is a chimney on top if the roof. Probably all neighbours vents below me are connected going to that chimney.

    So that's that option out the window

    That's too bad. At least you figured it out before venting into your neighbors. Personally I would just vent the tent into the living room (filtered of course). I vent into indoor space and have never had any condensation issue. I suppose the local climate would play a big part in that.
