Chillers

[ChadTheSpike]

So I have been looking to replace my VASTLY overpowered, outdated and noisy 3/4 HP chiller with somehting smaller and more manageable.

I imagine most of you all run one, so what do you recommend and why?

Thanks!!

Chad

what size tank? how far are looking to pull it down from ambient?

i've seen your other thread, but how much water are we talking total?

There is around 100g give or take a little (60g main, 30g fuge not completely full and 30g sump also not full), and I only need 4 degrees (without the chiller the tank runs 78-79 at worst in the summer). The 3/4 HP beast I am using only runs about a minute an hour or so, but its a minute I dread!! That thing is crazy loud, but I didnt mind when it was in the basement in the house I lived in before this one.
