One of my dad's friends gave me a free water fountain:p:

it looks like its in good shape the res is made of Styrofoam so should i rebuild the res w/ plexiglass or keep it as is

My dad's friend told me it used to run R22 but he discharged it
Also the Condenser is missing its fan what kind of fan would u guys buy.Also if u don't figure it out i'm building a water chiller kind of ironic:D

I still have the parts for my direct die but i'm going to save it for when the hammers come out and just go w/ chilling for now

If styrofoam can withstand methanol by all means keep that. I belive plexi cracks at low temps just licke plastic/lucit(sp?)

I'm not sure if styrofoam can withstand it or not maybe someone that knows can tell me

I notice their fuel tanks are high density polyethylene. Also, I'm thinking that Rubbermaid 12 can insulated cooler looks like it might be the right size for an A/C coil.
