A number of years ago we noticed an increasing demand for short box darkrooms. We decided to start offering them as an alternative to the traditional long box design. After a few months of prototyping and trouble shooting we were able to finally offer a short box darkroom to our customers.

 The short box darkroom construction details are essentially the same as the long box, just in a smaller package. It features the same insulated timber frame construction and smooth aluminium exterior along with the same fiberglass reinforcement and water proofing on the interior. However our short box design includes an open concept work area opposed to the traditional  cubby hole style of the long box. In addition it features an extra storage unit behind the seat to make up for the storage lost in shortening the darkroom.

 Both our darkroom styles include a coolant bypass valve which allows the user to regulate the flow of coolant to the darkrooms heating system. When used in combination with the chill chaser shut off valve this system allows the user to increase / decrease or completely stop the flow of coolant to the darkroom.
