I need to drill a 1" hole in the side of the refrigerator to run my beer lines through to a tap, but I'm afraid of hitting a coolant line. Are my worries valid? thanx, shane

The location on the right side really doesn't matter to me as long as I don't hit a line. I was thinking about 18" from the back, and about 14" high. Think that will be ok? Thanks for the help. -shane

Are there any lines on the left side about 50 inches above the floor and 16 inches from the back? I looked at the parts diagram but am still cautious. It is a bottom mount freezer. Thanks
