Re: Marine AC using fresh instead of raw water?

I'm sure you can stretch your mind a bit and guess why someone might think that no hole is better than a hole. The best way to not have a problem with something is to not have it in the first place.

Re: Marine AC using fresh instead of raw water?

I actually asked about where and how people install their AC over there and I think you answered :). But the overall "fresh water" thought experiment is more generic and I think works well if...

Re: Marine AC using fresh instead of raw water?

I'll put this idea in the "doesnt work as is" basket but I have a feeling there's something here that could work. Residential electric water heaters, the high efficiency ones, do use heat pumps as a...
