Hello,
I purchased the UBC 3/4PRO to chill my 2BBL brewery (5 FVs, 1 BT). I saw many posts here recommending it. Now that I have it, I'm skeptical of the 3/8" inlet / outlet barbs and high-pressure pumps... but it seems like it works for many. To those who use one... did you just connect the 3/8" barb directly to your piping? 1/2" trunk adequate?
My current plan has the chiller in the basement, pumping up to the 1st floor FVs and BT. I have concerns about power failure or pump failure causing the glycol to gravity siphon and overflow the reservoir. I could add two more NC solenoids at the inlet & outlet, to close on power failure, but that doesn't address pump issues? Thoughts?
