Fordguy,

Hook it up with hoses and run water through it to test it BEFORE you do a lot of digging. About 5 gallon per minute (20 liters/min) is about right. Measure the water input and output temps. Measure the air input and output temps. Let it run for a couple hours.

Your cost - the amount of water and maybe $1 in electricity . . .

Let us know.

This is awesome for $425!!!!!!!
