so my big beautiful bev-air two tower stainless kegerator bit the dust.
it's old and uses R12.
was found yrs ago and given to me for free and I got about 4 or 5 yrs out of it.
but it's no longer getting cold and compressor is making a heck of a racket and most likely shot.
so my problem is I have 35-40 gallons of kegged beer and not a lot of space to cool it for serving.
it's mostly 4 different brews with backup kegs so it doesn't all need to be cold at once.
I have a 7 cu ft magic chef black chest freezer coming from walmart today.
I have the towers from my old kegerator that hold 3 taps and this thing will hold 3 kegs and a tank easy
easy peasy install.
my only concern is if it craps out under warranty it'll have a some holes in the lid and that will be an issue if I try to return it.
on the other hand if i go with a collar i have 4 taps and a drip tray for a fridge i never used and i can return the freezer if it dies.
plus i'll be able to fit 4 kegs and a tank...
I think i just talked myself out of re-using my tower and going with a collar.
LOL
pics of this very basic build to follow.
