Kegerator Forum: Countertop Tap Conversion

Posted:  06 Apr 2011 15:34
I've been drooling over the idea of installing tap with tower in my kitchen countertop in my new home. My current set up contains a Perlick 1002A-UL dual kegerator with a 20lb CO2 tank and 5ft of beer/gas lines. Here's what my plan entails; plumbing approximately 20ft insulated PVC pipe from 2nd tower outlet through basement to kitchen, install PVC fan 2.5ft from outlet to push cool air throughout pipe, cut/ mount tap and tower in countertop. I have only residential/personal knowledge of beer line lengths in relation to gas pressure. I'm not sure if cooling a run of this length is achievable in a residential system on a budget. Any suggestions to proper set up is greatly appreciated.
