I’ve searched around and mostly seen people create custom radiator builds attached to their water supply, but that’s beyond my skill level and I’m not sure if linking it directly to the water supply via piping would violate the lease or not. Are there any solutions a bit more DIY that I could take advantage of?
Youre not necessarily wasting any water. Any water that goes down the drain just gets filtered and recirculated. Even if it wasn’t filtered and made it directly to the river, evaporation would still ensure it returns to the cycle.
Not as far as the efficiency of filtering water vs an AC… well. You’ll need someone significantly smarter than I to tell you that
The wasting of water refers to water that is available for use by people. Water that’s been treated and is ready to go.
By your definition “wasting water” is impossible, since it all stays on Earth and will get filtered eventually.
That was what I was going for :p. Had hoped an engineer might come in and tell us the efficiency of either or both.
