Can you put the CO2 tank inside the kegerator or does it have to be mounted on the back?

With 1/6 of a keg it will fit. I have seen home made kegerators with the tank inside. Tape the hole in the back so no cold air gets out. Enjoy

I run this with a two-keg regulator. The 5# CO2 tank with regulator runs an output to the gas side of each keg. These lines are independent of one another, so their lines can have different pressures, if desired. The output lines from the kegs run to the taps.If you have a one-keg regulator, you need a manifold (or splitter) to divide the single gas output to two kegs. This requires the same PSI for each keg. If you are picky about carbonation levels for a given beer (a homebrewer should be picky), then you'll just get a two-keg regulator.

To be honest, I have no idea. I would contact Invacare to see if they're available. Space is quite limited on the unit, so I have no idea where it would be mounted or added on. I don't use an oxygen tank. This unit does have a small basket on the front that mounts on the front shaft of the handle bar. Perhaps you might be able to put one there instead of the basket. I doubt a tank would fit inside the basket. I've seen larger baskets available at WalMart that look exactly the same only much larger. Maybe if your tank is small enough, that might work for you. Sorry I couldn't be more of a help. Call the company "Invacare" and I'm sure they'll be happy to assist with your questions. To be honest, I have no idea.

It's designed to go in the tank. It might be possible to rig it up as an inline, but I wouldn't count on it being watertight.

I would say no. I use a small paint ball tank and when I get it filled it appears the fittings on the two tanks are different. To be 100% sure I would have to see a normal CO2 tank.

Yes you can. If you use an external regulator I also recommend placing an accumulator tank between the regulator and compressor. I use a 70 cu in Bimba tank purchased from a surplus shop for my accumulator. It also keeps the compressor from cycling on as frequently.

It has a internal (submerged) pump with a air hose that hangs outside the tank. I don't know how to hook the CO2 tank. If your CO2 has a small out-take you could possibly hook the bubblers intake to your co2 tank. It diffuses wonderfully, tiny micro bubbles.

Yes, you just have to remove a piece in the back for it to fit, as it is a lot longer. The only issue that I had with it is that the carbonation seem to run out or stop working even though the machine shows that it has a lot left.

I used it when the keg was one third full just to try it out before I took the keg away from the main CO2 bottle and regulator . I would say it might take two or three of the CO2 bombs to do a whole 5 galon keg. This is to push the beer out not to carbonate the brew. I will still use the regulator for that as it would give you more control.

no,the co2 slides in and is capped in place by a threaded screw cap. i2 gram co2 powerlet only.

I haven't moved my RV since buying the tank, but since it is not something I would want to bring inside, I would probably store it in the underneath storage area if I had room. As a last resort, could tie it to the rack on top of my 5th wheel.

You could, but then you would need to consume or serve the entire container. Growlers are meant for short-term storage and will not hold the carbonation or freshness. You could keg your beer and keep it pressurized with a co2 system. But that is a bit much for a one gallon batch. The yield was ten 12oz bottles or five bombers.

I don't believe so because the tank acts as a back-pressure buffer as well as storage. The whole system is designed to work together, so if space is an issue it comes with really long plastic piping so you can place the tank further away if that helps. I have it connected to my ice maker and the tap it comes with as well, in case you were wondering.

No, the tank hangs on a bracket inside the cabinet; the unit is self contained and moves quite easily. The bracket is a spring loaded scale and gives you a relatively accurate measurement of how much propane is left in the tank. It is however a bit difficult for smaller/weaker/lighter in stature people to hang the bottle on the bracket, FYI. If you choose not to use it, the tank can just sit in the cabinet. Either way, a nicely self contained, moveable unit.

Let it LEAK! it needs to vent off CO2 and if you prevent that it could pressurize and rupture the keg. So no gasket and ensure the two small slits in the keg lid collar are clear. When sanitizing the keg, hold it upside down and if water leaks out you are good to go.

It comes with a CO2 tank but it will need to be filled with CO2. Also another good thing to get but not necessary is a kegerator cleaning kit. Other than that your good to go!

Yes, it is. You can get a tap system like the Edgestar mini kegerator that comes with a conversion kit for non-heinekin mini kegs. Research it on the internet for more info, there are videos that show how to do it.
