Message Actually, I wasn't planning on coating the exchanger portion itself, but I HAVE considered coating the copper exchanger portion with silver (yet higher thermal conductivity) to protect it from oxidation. My plans were to coat the endtanks with silver or chrome (or nickel) for aesthetics, not for their thermal properties. I have paid particular attention to the soldering/brazing composition between the tube/fin design to make sure we are utilizing the high conductivity of the copper to the best of it's means; avoiding tin/lead material in favor of high silver (>60%) material.

Hope this clarifies my response and answers your question.

Thanks,
SS
