Default faucet in the wall

OK so after much resaerch in this forum I am gong with a blower to cool my line. I will have about a 4 ft run to the faucet. I still have a couple of questions though. If my shank is running through a 2x4 wall, should the PVC with the cold air blowing through it go all the way through the wall and over the shank, or to just the back of the shank? Also do I need a tube inside the PVC to return air?
Thanks,
Eric

You don't need a return tube. The PVC is the return tube. The air from the blower will force the air already in the PVC to go somewhere, and the only somewhere should be through the PVC back into the kegerator. Just don't seal the PVC off at the kegerator end, leave it open enough for air to comeback.

be selfish and worry about my liver."
