General Rundown

Condenser size 200mm

Tools needed: 20mm Conduit approx 700mm long
Duct tape
Big flat screwdriver
4.5mt of 1/4 copper tube in a coil, i purchased 5 and had some left over

Begin by taping approx 200mm of tube along the length of the conduit at one end.

Manipulate the copper around the conduit, this is probably the hardest part but you will get there, once you have one turn around the conduit, place your foot on the coil of copper that's sitting on the ground to give it some tension.

Roll the conduit and lift at the same time, remember your foot is creating tension on the copper pipe, this helps with control and makes sure the copper rolls over evenly.

When you are done with the first (inner) coil, use a big flat screwdriver to gap the coil.

Now you need to come back over the inner coil, this is pretty easy just remember to go slow and keep tension on the coil as you roll the conduit.


This is by no means a how to guide, its just the way i did it.
