I use a regular old Maytag dehumidifier. Cost me $150, generates no noticeable heat, and the plants love it. I grow soil and don't have much ventilation in my grow room. The dehumidifaction helps there . I don't have a/c in my grow room , instead it's just the cental a/c blowing on/off throughout the day. Temps maybe around the upper 70s/low 80s with lights on. Can't tell you much more about it b/c I picked it up from Kmart a while ago... it holds 45pints and that's full if I run it for 4 hours once a day towards the end of light period on a watering day. it runs daily and has to be emptied once every 3 days if there's no waterings... max 400PSI on high mode and 100psi in low mode... hmm, does a mighty fine job in keeping room temps low when the general atmosphere wants to boil water in mid-october..
I don't drain the water it generates into my crops cuz it's just nasty... I find some weird stuff floating in it sometimes, I'll stick to what comes out of the tap
