Chillers

[DonW]

Just a few questions.

Are they big power consumers?
Are they problematic, wondering about shopping for used no warranty to fall back on??


Thanks

the power usage will depend on temp and needed drop. but considering what we have invested in our tanks,,i dont mind the usage. with pumps and lights and room temp,,i need my chiller.

as for used...see it in action,,,caveat emptor

I can easily keep mine at 78 winter or summer with all seven 4" fans running. A chiller just sound like a cleaner installation the prices seem to be going way down. What would you compare the consumption to, a fridge or air conditioner?
