Hello Ralf
Please think a little about my problem and give me an opinion.
I'm in Rio de Janeiro, a tropical warm city in Brazil. My 130g in-wall is inside a small room with dimensions 67"(L), 35 "(W) and 90 "(H). I'm actually using an old drop-in chiller but it' heating the room. I have to keep the room's door open to let this heat go out but the noise increase and my wife becomes angry. I decide to look for another solution.
1- An in-line 1/3 HP chiller outside the house. Not an expensive solution. I will need some plumbing as the chiller would not be so close the reef. Need a pump. Uses a lot of energy. Perhaps not so efficient because the chiller will be four meters far from de reef.
2- A 7000 BTU split wall ar conditioner from LG. Not expensive but perhaps uses a little more energy than the chiller. Will do well as the reef room is very small.
3- A Deltec ECO-cooler. Very expensive but can save me money as it uses very less energy, but increases evaporation.
4- An Ocean Geotronic cooler model Ocean 600. It's based on Peltier cells. Very expensive too, uses less energy than the chiller, could be placed inside the reef room,very small and low noise.
with your knowledges, what's the best solution ???
Best regards,
Luiz Seadorf
