I am going to buy a Fridgidaire 4.4 cu. ft. fridge to convert into a kegerator. I've read the threads about modifying it, and have a question regarding the beer lines. I built an outdoor bar several years ago, and recently added a 2 tap tower. I have a 20 lb CO2 tank beneath the bar, but the depth is only 16", so I would rather not have the fridge directly beneath. I can put it at the end of the bar and run the lines out the top or back, then through the end of the bar and up the tower. The distance the lines would be outside the fridge is about 18". Would it be best to run them through 3/4" copper and insulate them to help keep them cool? If I go out the top I will have to use 2 90 degree elbows per line; is that OK? Has anyone put a line out the back of the fridge near the top rather than through the compressor box?
Thanks!
