I’m working on building a glycol system to chill fermenters looking at the expensive homebrew options out there and pumps run easily $40 for a submersible aquarium pump that affords higher head pressure while sacrificing lower flow.
Since this pump will be in a cold glycol bath it needs to be able to operate at 28*F and it needs to consume a low amount of power to minimize the amount of extra work on the chiller.
What pumps work great for this? Looking for something with a 3/8 hose barb fitting; <20w; <$20 and either 120v or 12v
most of the commercially available pumps run at12v; 16’ head and I am not sure on LPM or GPH.These pumps are $40 on the low side
thanks for your help!
Cheers!
