    Yes they do, the whole unit works. But i think the fans may be too powerful to use to circulate air. Im assuming they will put off a lot of heat and I think it will mess with the temperatures too much.

    the fans run the whole time, so hows that gonna mess with temps? turn it on, and adjust stat acordinaly. i have built a false wall in the back of the cooler that the fan is intergrated into. i have slits, or ducts if you will, that blows air out at every level of racks. perfect air circulation.

    My fans are mounted to the top on the inside. I figured two things:
    1. The fans would put off excess heat
    2. The fans blowing downward on the tubs could affect the temp

    Im still new to all of this but if you have ideas I love to hear them. Spooky if you could send me some pics of your set up I would love to see them.

    Im also not that great with wiring and stuff (have to have a friend wire my heat tape) so I dont know how to make the fans run but cut out the motor and everything.

    If that doesnt make sense please let me know and Ill try to explain further, its late and I just got done working 12 hours.
