Not to hijack the thread; but school me on dryers. I see many compressors with driers, most are not refrigerated. How effective is a non refrigerated drier? Seems if it were big enough, it would bring the temp back down close to ambient. I thought about using an old A/C condensing unit (with a bad compressor.... just bypass the compressor). Run your air into the condensing coil and back out into the compressor tank. Wire it up so the fan kicks on any time the compressor is running.

Stupid idea? Not worth the trouble? I guess back to my original question, what I really want to know is if a non refrigerated aftercooler/dryer is even worth the effort. Or does it have to be refrigerated to be effective?

Thanks.
