Venting A Roasting Room

Hi Folks, I am building a 8x8x8 room in my garage to house my TJ-067 roaster. The room will be sealed and insulated so I am looking to vent it to exhaust extra heat and CO2 from the roaster and bring in fresh air from the outside. I had planned on putting in a 500CFM fan unit in the ceiling and then building a passive intake vent to the outside at floor level. I'll put a CO2 alarm as well. The propane tank would be outside feeding through the wall top the roaster. The roaster cyclone would be vented separately to the outside away from the intake vent. Would love to hear your thoughts on this.

Cheers

Ian
