Chiller question

Is it normal for a chiller to have frozen condensation on some plumbing around where the exhaust is? Just noticed this tonight and haven't seen it before. Also, at 9 pm my temp was at 81 and is always at 80. Wondering if I may have an issue or it just could be the house was hot today with the warmer weather.

Thanks
 
Freezing isn't ever a good sign unless you're pumping anitfreeze through it and the freezing is on the outside of the hose..:D

Warmer weather should only keep it from freezing even more.

Among other reasons, freezing could be a sign of poor flow through it or an indicator of a possible low charge.
 
Figured...I unplugged it last night to defrost and didn't turn the halides on until this eveningChiller ran for a bit but there was no freezing...I'll call trade wind to see how to check the refrigerant. Thanks for the help.
