Can I use this tower with my corny set up? http://www.beveragefactory.com/draftbeer/towers/doublefaucet/D4743DT___6843.shtml It says it comes with line and hex nuts to connect but I dont need the hex nuts since thats not how my connections are set up. So would I just cut the line right above the hex nuts then clamp it to the connections? Im just trying to figure this out before I was my time and money ordering it and then not being able to use it. Cause on their sit all their "homebrew kits" are single fct towers and I want a double fct tower. Thanks for the help guys!
 
Yes that Tower is fine for you... You can just cut the hex nut off but keep that for possible future brewing expansion... then just push the 3/16" line onto a Corny keg beer out post and clamp down with Oetinger or crimp clamps.
 
If you are open to a little DIY - check out the link in my signature - I wasn't happy with the quality of the towers I saw pre-made so took a different route - much sturdier in my opinion. You might spend a few bucks more up front but you'll end up with a nice quality, with your choice of faucets and hardware - less likely to want/need to upgrade in the future.

I would see if they have an upgrade to forward sealing faucets. They stay cleaner and don't stick if you don't use them for a while. Perlick's new series isn't that much more expensive.

Cheers,
Rick
