You know, if you really, really want to do this, here's what would work best (but still very inneficient): attach the coldplate to the heatercore's tanks.
The problem with the pelts is that they have a very small surface area, and the water would need to pass by it very slowly in order to be cooled. Phase change however can be used over a much bigger surface area, and that's why it makes such a great water chiller.
You need to check out #rotor's site, if you haven't done so already. He converts a dehumidifier into a chiller. Nice, simple and elegant, but most of all, very efficient.
