6:05 thermoelectric.. no, that's phase-change compressor, its a small heatpump/refrigeration unit.
Thermoelectric is using those plates that are power hogs if your desired temperature is quite different.
if it can heat up the water, its by running the compression cycle in reverse. cooling the room while dumping heat into the water. on small scale, its easier to just use a tank heater.
most shops i see dont pump aquarium water directly into the chiller, they use stainless steel pipes bent into multiples s-bends, they hang the pipes in the aquarium sumps or aqaurium backs. they use an inline pump to move the chilled distilled water around.
Thanks! I wasn’t sure what I was looking at there.
Great video! Very important those teams of research for conservation. And wallxolotls lmao
Good Job! Nice to see you're still making aquarium videos 🙂
Those are such beautiful fish, looking forward to seeing the next video.
I just bought the exact same chiller it works amazing for its size the 1/10hp chiller I am cooling 45 gallons on a loop system meaning, I have a res bucket with the pump and enough water to cover the pump and around 20 feet of smaller hose looped at the bottom of both of my grow res's creating a closed loop system chilling RO water so that I do not have to clean the chiller from sediments or dirty water so no bacteria build up or anything to worry about and it works great however it never turns off but the temps are 67f in one res and 68f in the other res just amazing. Oh just make sure and insulate your grow buckets and reservoir's with some foam wrapping.
Hi! I just setup this chiller in my home and I’ve been trying to see if anyone else that is using it experiences a small odor coming from it? Mine gives off a faint smell of something burning. Does yours do that too?
@iamthehighway7687 Yes, mine also smelt like plastic burning it is the new smell breaking in, no worries.
@@user-pwfus thank you for relieving some stress. 😅
I think some salt water set ups need very constant temperatures so that's what comes to mind that would need both a heater and a chiller for year round constant temperatures. Freshwater is so much more forgiving!
Hi! Thanks for making this video!! I just setup this chiller in my home and I’ve been trying to see if anyone else that is using it experiences a faint smell of burning coming from it. Do you notice a smell at all? I know it generates a ton of heat, so my guess is it’s normal.
Great video.
Sold under Resun brand in some parts of the world
This is the 1/10hp model?
Not sure but the link should have the specs.
@@pecktec the link takes you to the chiller's website and has 4 choices (1/10hp, 1/4hp, 1/3hp and 1.5hp) but I do think it highlights the 1/10hp. Thanks.
