150mm The Hood Air Cooled Shade

Air cooled shades work with a fan to cool your growing area by removing most of the bulb heat and also allow your plants to grow closer to the light.

This air cooled shade has a sliding tempered glass panel that entraps the heat given off by the bulb and gives you easy access to your bulb. This  "entrapped " heat can then be vented outside with the help of an attached fan thus removing a lot of heat from your growing environment. The polished, dimpled, aluminium, internal shade lining  is an excellent light reflector reducing hot spots within your growing area.

You can link several air cooled shades together with ducting and use one fan to exhaust the hot air. You may need a centrifugal fan if exhausting more than 2 shades. You can also use your filter fan (if you are using one) and re-direct the air flow through the air cooled shade  and then outside. This saves having to buy another fan.  We recommend you use solid aluminium ducting and tape with these shades as a safety feature.  If you have a fan failure plastic ducting can melt.

Width 535mm,  Length 560mm,  230mm high.
