Large buildings use water to remove the heat from theur ac condensers.

What about a recirculating fountain to spay the coils in my ac
condenser for 90+ temp days.

How much 'gain' in efficiency would result?

There have been a number of commercial kits to do this. The problem is,
even with soft water, they scale up the evaporators fast and that reduces
the efficiency. Don't bother.

A real hack would be to cut the condenser apart, and place the coils
in a 'bathtub' in the ground, etc



How about running an AC duct from the AC to the condenser? :-)
