Title: aircon. keep it or dump it?
Post by: turbo boy on March 10, 2009, 04:45:03 PM
Hi guys, is it possible to have a v-mount setup with the old aircon? Also can you mount a bigger rad in the traditional way whilst having the ic above it?

I\'ve got a similarish set up to that - the aircon rad sits flat across the bottom of the v mount (hayward rotary one), making it a z mount if you see what I mean. Frame for the air con rad had to be made up, as did the undertray to sit below it with vents to let the air through, but it works.
