Thanks! Shelves are resting against the wall :) I am just waiting for the water jugs to heat up and the temps to stabilize before I mess with it anymore.

Thanks a lot Greg. I'm well on my way :) I should have eggs dropping within a month and from there it should be constant for several months. LOL.

Now I see, you took the fans out. I just left ours in along with the condenser and copper pipe. I wasn't sure if it was still filled with freon :(.

It's a big EPA no-no to mess with the lines if they are still pressurized. We double checked mine at the schrader valve before we uninstalled. The refrigerant had either already leaked out or been recovered. My brother does HVAC so he was my trusty assistant during the entire project. We made a few weeks out of it working piece by piece. We're both sticklers for detail so I think it turned out nice :)
