condenser coil
the water coming off my single 1/4" condenser was very hot so i desided to make a double with 3/8. i found a 25ft coil at a small hardware store at a great price, i guess nobody told them copper prices lately. filled it with salt, was a real pain, started to wind on a 1" dowle, kinked in first 3ft, started over much slower this time,i think slow is the key, when i started back on the second wrap i was on easy street. so when they say go slow pay attention, makes a huge difference. this coil fits a 3" pipe, to make one for a 2" you would be a way better guy than me.
Re: condenser coil
Yes slow is the key lol. This is my two. One to right made by me in a hurry and was kink city. Second with help of my buddy, we filled it with sugar instead of sand(figured it would be better if some of it stayed for some reason).
I still use both, well because even though the one to the right looks like hell it still works good lol
