Do these bulbs output alot of heat? If so, what can be put in place to lower the temperature of the grow room?
HPS bulbs will generate heat as well as light, we would recommend using a Growell Extraction/Filtration kit to manage this.

Do i need to buy two if i want to grow 2 plants at a time or does one do the job?
The 600W Proxima system will cover an area of 1.2 square metres. If you want to grow 2 plants, I'd go with the 250W system, this will cover 75 square centimetres, & is enough for around 3 plants.
What are the overall dimensions of the light? Also are chains attachable?
The reflector with this light measures 40 x 47 x 13cm, you can attach chain to this reflector by using S hooks, but we would recommend using Ezi-Roll Light Hangers.
