New Install Question

[Darren]

I am in the process of opening a bar and it currently has a 2 keg cooler with two towers and four taps. The cooler fits under the bar, but the towers hit the edge of bar top long before the cooler is back far enough to not be in the way. My thought is if I remove the towers and mount them to the bar top, I can push the cooler back farther, but I have about a 4"-6" gap between cooler top and bar top bottom. How do I keep the air cooled between cooler and tower for such a short distance. Do they make an adapter to mount to old tower footprint thats insulated?

Thank you for any help you may offer.

I'd cut a piece of 2 inch PVC pipe to fit tight between the cooler and bar and insulate good, mike sure to extend blower hose so that your shanks stay cold..........you should be fine! You wouldn't beleive some of the set-ups out there!

Does the existing system have flex tubes routed into the towers? If so, once you bridge the gap between the towers and kegbox, reinsert these back into the tower.

Home Depot / Lowes would have everthing you need. Dril hole through your bar top the same size that is in the top of you keg box. Wharever you use to bridge between the two, be certain to insulate the outside.

Thank you both for the info. I was kinda heading that direction, just didn't know if they actually made a device for such situations. Again, I appreciate the info.
