Description
A pitched-roof grow tent that fits under the rafters
The LightHouse LOFT Grow Tent is shaped for lofts and attics: the walls rise to about 1.42m and the roof then slopes in to a 1.8m peak, so it sits under a pitched ceiling where a square-topped tent will not stand. It shares the premium build of the LightHouse MAX - heavy-duty tri-layer 600 denier fabric, the ULTRALUX reflective liner and 22mm poles with welded metal corners - in a 1.2m x 1.2m or 2.4m x 1.2m footprint. Lofts run hot in summer and cold in winter, so the ventilation is laid out to work with the room: extraction high in the back wall and a big intake low down, both double-lined and light-tight, keeping airflow, heat and humidity under control.
Key Benefits
- Pitched roof - about 1.42m walls rising to a 1.8m peak, for sloping ceilings
- 600 denier tri-layer cover with the ULTRALUX liner, rated by the maker up to 30% more reflective than traditional linings
- 22mm poles, welded metal corners and roof support bars with rubber ends
- Rear-wall airflow - 200mm extraction sock high, 250mm intake sock low
- Light-tight ports with pull toggles and Velcro covers on the larger socks
- Waterproof insert tray, 4 filter straps, Velcro cable straps and a fabric carry bag
How to Use
- Check the pitch of your roof against the tent's profile, then build the frame on a boarded, level floor.
- Hang the light and filter from the roof support bars. Maker's guide: up to 1 x 600W HID in the 1.2m x 1.2m, up to 2 x 600W HID in the 2.4m x 1.2m, or an LED of similar coverage.
- Extract through the upper rear sock and draw fresh air in through the lower one. Minimum fan: 125mm (5") for the 1.2m, 150mm (6") for the 2.4m.
- Use the two inline 250mm socks if you run air-cooled lighting; close unused ports and check for light leaks with the lights on.
