Instead of water flowing thru a chiller, a compressor makes use of external coiling unit to directly in contact with water for better efficiency of chilling down the temperature. In short, A compressor would possibly give you faster chilling down in term of minutes.

You can contact Derek at 97979910. He did my 1HP Daikin at a reasonable price

You must see your house if have space for the compressor or not. Some have a small Aircon balcony. Must consider the piping / probe that is running from the compressor to the tank if require drilling or going through walls and such.. So it depends on the feasibility of having a compressor.
