Default Ventilation in Reef Room

Hey guys, any advice on best way to air exchange my garage where all my tanks are?. It's too hot and muggy in the summer and the humidity is a major issue in the winter.

I have used a dehumidifier in the winter (which works well), but it can only be run at night, generates quite a bit of heat and uses a lot of power.

The other thing I looked into was HRV, which might be good in the winter, but apparently they do not cool for the summer, just bring in new outside air and retain temp.

I have a couple fans pulling air in and out, but they are just small 4" fans. When the garage door is left open a couple feet, it helps a lot in the summer.

Any other suggestions would be much appreciated.
