Possibly pumping ice water through a coil for cooling is just one option.
 
Got a temp rating for it? Or a model number so I can look it up? I need to replace mine with one that can handle higher temps for a steam based humidifier.
 
Not sure if the plastic is food safe. I just know with a little ingenuity and creativity the right person could use it for a great Diy project. What that project us exactly, I don't know.
 
I do hvac and we use these for ac condensate I can't imagine in what way they would be a good fit in brewing. I can almost guarantee they are not food safe. Not trying to be a jerk just stating the obvious

Maybe in a keezer? They can get pretty swampy.
 
How would they not be a perfect fit for somebody trying to use it for pumping ice water through an immersion coil. In hotter climates the ground water is very warm. I'm a service tech in the hvac industry Btw.
 
It IS good for pumping ice water through an IC. When I brew indoors, I do the same thing. Different pump but same concept. It works very well.

Sorry my bad man

In my ten seconds of googling, I thought they were designed to collect the moisture, condense it, and pump it out.
I could be completely wrong, so feel free to ignore :p
 
I was thinking about using one of these for a glycol pump, but I dont it is designed for a 24x7 operation.
