Im working on this chiller build and am just left sitting here scratching my head as to how to go about building or getting this evap into a res. It seems to me that with these pipes there is not alot of slack for bending them to get the evap into a cooler so i think i am pretty much left with very little movement options and trying to figure out how to build a res up around it. Any tips or ideas?
The plan for now is to use a temp switch so that at a certain temp the chiller will turn on. Until i move in 6 months to a bigger place i plan to just run sub ambient temps yet stay above the dew point so needless to say im gonna need a temp probe to keep it above dew point.
Here it is with the fan housing removed. The fan is frickin LOUD, so i figured id use something else once i get the res figured out.
As you can see, it doesnt appear to have much slack to move the evap very far... I dont know how much help getting a pipe bender would do.
Im curious as to that little section of coiled up pipe, what is that? Im in need of some suggestions as i am kinda stalling out on this one...
