Nice set up Meatheadinc looks good, how many watts of power does that condensor fan take ? might look at that myself as I only have a car radiator not as efficient. :handgestures-thumbupleft:

The AC fan radiator is actually 4 small radiators ( each dual core). I have had it up as 3previousely but currently run it as 2.
1 return line from reflux and pc
2 bypass from pump.
previously I had it set as 3
1 reflux return
2 pc return
3 bypass
The fan moves a lot of air and 4 radiators with 3/8 inlet/outlets ( currently set as two sets of two parallel radiators) I can push a lot of water through it.
my pump is 750w submersible and has huge flow. at max flow= PC 4Lpm RC 4lpm Bypass1 3lmp Bypass2 3lpm. (note this is max flow when tested as 4 radiators with restrictive pipe work. controlled with flow valves during operation PC 2lpm, RC 0-2lpm, Bypass ???? lots )
The AC unit was a 9KW split system thus I believe it should be able to handle near that power with adequate water and air flow.

I got bored today, and as I am between ferments, and without new pieces for control freak, I started on my boka head for fores removal for my future gin basket. (below RC) I built this in order to bleed fores / heads before allowing vapour to pass though a gin basket ( above RC)
I coiled some 3/8 tube around some 4" and stood back to admire my work........
Ooooops :angry-banghead:
I forgot to allow for the extra height of the future gin basket :crying-blue:
Maybe I co stretch the coil :oops: :pray:
