I will check out the Harbor Freight pump, i could always plumb some resistance in, or mabye set it up like:

rad -> res -> comp -> pump -> rad

So it pulls through instead of pushes. I dont know if that would have any effect at all, but my mind would think, "At least its not shooting water in, instead its pulling it out." That may or may not effect anything, and it may be sub-optimal, I dont know.

I have seen posts from airspirit, and will try to look for them again. I had completely forgotten about them until you mentioned it.

Unfortunately I do not have a basement, where I live its solid limestone beneth the house. However, my house is extremely well insulated. What I have thought to do was run another exhaust tube and pair it with the one going out of the attic, that way all heat generating sources areducted out.

What about radiators? Size is not really a concern, so I have thought of getting a larger one but I am not sure it would help much.

As for a res, I have been looking at lots of different setups, but I am not sure of what i want to go with there either.

The good thing is I have lots of time, no rushes here. I can plan it just how I want it, then implemnt it.

Thanks for all the comments, any more are _very_ welcome.
