Propane refrigerator converted to a reservoir chiller/CO2 generator

[Local Grown]

I have a small heat problem with my grow room. I am running a total of 1400 watts from three air cooled lamps. My hydro res is running hot at about 30'c and the room is about 33'c, I really cant cool the room, but if I raise the C02 level and cool the reservoir at the same time, the plants should be able to cope that way.
Has anyone tried it yet? Using a propane fridge?

I guess you could put the fridge in the grow room... put a 5 gal bucket of water in the fridge, put a wort chiller in the bucket... Then pump the reservoir through the wort chiller coil..... Don't know how much cooling that would give.... or maybe put your reservoir in the fridge... you may need to vent to prevent any co2 build up, and you'll need to be able to measure the co2 concentration just to be safe.....
