Cooling Issue or Not?

My garage and rec room share a wall so I want to keep my kegerator in the garage and run the two shanks through into the rec room. I will attach them directly to an oak plate on the rec room wall. Anyway, if the shanks are long enough to have about 4 inches in the fridge itself will the chilled part transfer that cold through the rest of the shanks that are going through the walls or will everything eventually spoil?

you really should refigerate the entire length of the line and the shank; otherwise you you get a shot of foam at the first of your pour set yourself up with a blower to blow COLD air all along the route of the lines; remember the back of the faucet at the shank should be the coldest part of the system
