I think it should be fine. It depends on the length of your hose, your carbonation pressure and how fizzy you want your water. I have mine set up to dispense right outside the fridge through a beer tap (ie, maybe about a foot of marginally warmer tubing) and ~45-50 psi and I find it a bit too...

Perhaps this would be an opportunity to reconfigure your set up to put the whole carbonator pump, motor(s) and all in the fridge. I was initially considering this but with a mini fridge and wanting a pressure tank supplementing the carbonator tank, there isn't any room. The fridge would also...

Just an update on my set up. I got all my fittings including the hoses and tubing. All in all, it seems to work as planned. The 3/8" OD tubing is actually a lot stiffer than I thought. It's more like narrower PEX household plumbing lines. With the push-fit mechanisms they have blades to...

My original thought was to use Roger's idea as a jumping point putting the whole carbonator tank in the fridge and copying beer enthusiasts line balancing technique. I'd run 8-30' of hose from the tank to the tap but everything but the faucet would be left in the fridge. My other thought...

You could probably make one out of 2 fittings. I just ordered all my fittings from installationpartssupply.com http://www.installationpartssupply.com/product/S82-6.html http://www.installationpartssupply.com/product/S30-66.html I'm curious why everyone is using braided hoses. I know...

Unfortunately I don't think that would work. Regular faucets are made of brass which I hear can leach into your slightly acidic carbonated water. I was looking into that as well. I'm caving into the high price tags and opting for a beer tower with the Perlick 650ss faucet. Though it's not...

i'm interesting in doing something similar to this but I haven't found an inexpensive solution to completing the faucet side. It seems a simple wall mounted soda faucet costs $150+ and $450(!) for a tower. I'd like to adapt a beer faucet tower but I haven't heard of any confirmed set ups...
