Re: Need help for cooling a closed room

Hello,

My situation is this: my rigs are in a closed rood with only two vents for AC coming in.
AC is stuck at 20C/68F.

The room is closed: no windows and no way for the air to get out.
The room also cannot be modified, since it's not my house and the owner has refused any modifications I proposed.
...
...
Leave the door open?

The obvious solution would be to convert one of the two aircon inlets into an outlet. Might be very easy if you are handy, or a complete disaster if it goes wrong.

But as others wrote already, you need to let the heat out, somehow.

How about a few extra washers placed on the door hinges to lift it off the floor to create a leak?

What is above the room?

If you have a quality wood door.

Say like this:

and access to a proper circular saw like this :

you could remove ½ to maybe ¾ inches from bottom of the door.

Good luck fixing the heating issues.
