Hot, humid air can have a devastating effect on indoor plants and growing (these conditions can exist in growrooms).  This problem can be exacerbated by the increase in temperature from having several lights. There are a number of problems that can easily be prevented by taking control of temperature and humidity ranges indoors. At times, air-cooled systems are not enough to a controlled environment, and it becomes necessary to introduce a dehumidifier. This option comes at a significant cost. However, these costs can be deemed inconsequential when considering the amount of grief that can be prevented by buffering your indoor gardens from high temperatures and humidity, conditions that can have a detrimental effect on the plant’s ability to function.

Compact and maneuverable, this dehumidifier is extremely powerful. High-end design features such as low grain refrigerant, a hot-gas coil bypass and internal water pump allow this unit to remove up to 119 pints of water per day. This unit is also energy-wise, drawing only 5 amps of power. In fact, when paying an average cost of $.12/kwh you can run this dehumidifier for only $1.86 per day. And although the Evolution LGR is more compact and portable than other larger units, it comes complete with many useful features. The smaller size and semi-pneumatic wheels make this unit extremely portable – easy to move from site-to-site or just room-to-room. An easy fold-down handle, quick-release hose design, and fast pump access are convenient for the busy professional.

Product Features:

• LGR Technology – Keeps pu3ling moisture below 40 grains per pound so that deep drying can occur.
• Compact size – Lightweight, easy to maneuver, and highly versatile. Weighs only 92 lbs.
• Improved hose wrap – Recessed, quick-release design keeps drain hose free of kinks.
• Low amp draw (only 5 amps) – Lower draw means higher efficiency and reduced problems with heat on the job.
• Advanced filtration – HAF filters rated twice as efficient as washable foam.
• Protected touch pad – Recessed, digital control panel for protection. Easy-to-use controls in four languages.
• Automatic pump purge – Automatic pump cycles every siz minutes to eliminate overflow.
• Built In Ring – Provides for easy attachment of ducting.
• Quick pump access  – Allows for easy servicing.

Sentinel CHHC-1 Advantages

• Monitors and controls CO2 with PPM accuracy
• Also controls 3 other devices, a heating device. a cooling device and a humidity device.
• Separate day/night temp and humidity settings.
• Records the min and maxi temp, humidity and CO2 levels.
• Has 2 separate outputs to control cooling and heating.
• Can increase or decrease the amount of humidity in the growing area.
• Remote temp, humidity, CO2 and light level sensor

Climate Controller Overview

There are 3 environmental conditions which must be controlled for productive indoor growing. Independent settings on the CHHC-1 make it easy to accurately control your “atmosphere” inside the area.

Temperature is up first. The CHHC-1 has 2 separate outputs to control cooling and heating. Next is humidity and the CHHC-1 can either increase or decrease the amount of humidity inside the area. The third is  CO2 PPM. This climate controller controls carbon dioxide with Part-Per-Million accuracy.  This climate controller also features a remote combination Temperature, Humidity, CO2 & Light level sensor module that can be located inside the growing area. For indoor growing, Cooling devices such as ventilation fans or air-conditioners connect to the Cooling Device receptacle and heaters for cooler climate greenhouses can be connected to the Heat Device receptacle. Connect your 120 volt compressed CO2 solenoid / regulator assembly to the CO2 receptacle. Dehumidifier or a humidifier can be connected to the Humidity Device receptacle.
