I have a 1/2 hp active aqua water chiller and was wondering how many dwc reservoirs I can cool with it? the reservoirs are 20 gallons with about 12 gallons of water in them.
 
what kind of manifolds? can't find them

you might have to build it out of 1/2 pvc and some valves to adjust flow to each wort chiller.

did you check a plumbing supply house? i'm not sure if they'd have something like that for HVAC or well pumps.
maybe even Rainbird for lawn sprinkler/ watering supplies?
 
you would need a manifold with enough outlets for however many totes you have and a wort chiller for each tote. the stainless ones on ebay are about 40 bucks if i remember corrrectly.

Google boiler piping with multiple circuits. I use multiple circ pumps on a primary loop. My system uses an underground glycol loop as well as a chiller to get free cooling in colder months. I actually shut the whole op down and now strictly grow outside now that it’s semi legal lol.
 
Use the silver wrap for cooling water and ice blocks 3 should do job gaffer tape to hold em in place,then just keep using the same taping area in same spot so ya not buying new every grow just keep freezing block ,best to get double what ya need there only cheap any how,by that i mean blocks
