I’m not doing this project myself, sorry. I just think we need better ways to use all that heat.
400 watts for 5 m2 is what I could use permanently. If the water gets too hot, it’ll restrict flow to protect the tiles. The cost was relatively low at about 400 euros but only works with a downvolted C1 or S5.
Thanks for the encouragement! I’ll gather more info from the store today. I need some seasoned minds to help me out. I’m really a newbie in water cooling and floor heating.
Planning to hit the hardware store tomorrow for some expert advice on heating options. Key is keeping my miners cool while using waste heat for the bathroom floor. I want to find cheap S5s for this project.
Currently using coolant, but once my bong cooling tower is done, I might switch to water for evaporation... If the floor gets too hot, I want a system to redirect fluid to the radiators or bong cooling.
Let’s not talk ROI here. It’s not relevant for this project. Plus, it should connect to bathroom radiators.
I’ve got my S5s overclocked to about 50-60, but the C1 can only handle 30 before it starts acting up.
The radiators are meant for my 4 S5s and C1, and I’m planning to add more S5s since winter’s coming. I might end up with too much cooling, and I’ll have to overclock my miners.
Honestly, this started as a random idea when I saw my unused C1 in the bathroom. I could use some expert advice on whether this is even feasible. Just finished a cool radiator cabinet and am building a bong tower for…
I'm remodeling my bathroom and have four water-cooled S5s and a C1. Trying to figure out if I can use the heat from these miners to warm the floor. Thinking of using the C1 as a constant heat source with its 360 rad. If…
