I will ask something if possible? I want to put a copper pipe in the mini fridge and set up a cooling system to cool the water in the tank of my ebb & flow system. With a small water pump, the nutrient water passing through the Copper tube in the refrigerator returns to the reser

I just use a frozen pop bottle filled with water in my DWC. Just have to swap it out every day. coiling around 2ft of tube and blowing a fan on it will be alot easier to accomplish and will keep the water cooled then drilling into the beer fridge. As for copper, it's one of the trace elements that the plants need so I wouldn't worry about it leaching into the water.

медная трубка не изменит качества воды. медь - полудрагоценный металл, часто используется в дорогостоящем оборудовании (легкая, с отличной теплопроводностью, не отдает никаких посторонних элементов, окисление меди происходит до создания оксида меди - защитного слоя, не дающего окисляться металлу! Ценный и инертный металл!

Привет, бро! 👋 Отличная идея с медными трубками и холодильником! Следите за исправностью системы и её отдыхом, дабы избежать утечку фреона (ядовитого охлаждающего газа). 👌😇👍 Но идея хорошая и смелая, жму руку, бро! Удачи! 👋

... returns to the reservoir. As a result, water cools. I can keep the water cool by balancing the pump with a timer at regular intervals. What I want to ask is, how does pumping nutrient water from the copper tube affect the quality of the water and the pH setting? Does this cause problems for plants?
