I am debating on if i want to spent the money on an inline pump or not. I have one, but it was meant for computer cooling, and doesn't have a high GPH (Gallons per Hour)

Go for a good one like Ecoplus (have to convert it to in=line, but is built to be either. There is a good post on exactly how to convert.


  • 100 gph - $10
  • 264 gph - $21
those are MSRP from catalog

While I suck at explaining shit like this. Here are the parts I have and the function.

1. water pump 60 gph inside tank
2. tubing.
3. radiator.
4. fans.

Water is pumped up from the tank, into the radiator, where the fans blow through the radiator cooling the liquid, and the liquid then travels back into the tank, a few degrees cooler.

So far, the setup seems to be helping, the temp sits at about 21C degrees. (71 F) which if I understand correctly is ideal for cannabis.

I thought so, has it worked so far? What difference has it made in temp before & after the mod?

So far it seems to keep the temp about 3 degrees cooler than average. so normally it would idle about 74 ish, and now its about 71 and holding.

A radiator can only approach ambient room temperature but never reach it because the air in the room is what's used to cool the liquid. So if you want your radiator to be more effective you gotta chill the room more. That's what's so cool about the bong chiller. Evaporation can cool the water below ambient temperature. Same principle happens when you jump out of the shower. The water evaporating from your body transfers the heat away from you and then your nuts shrink :-o
