Review On Reef Relief Chiller

[untouchables]

anyone notice lck110 running a 0.5hp reef relief chiller for their clams? not sure of the water volume cos the entire tank setup there are cascaded but under bright sunlight and water temp at 25... chiller still running strong but dunno how many hours.

[islander]

i m not promoting 0.5hp reef relief but i do have in my room to cool my 90gal tank.so far i ve no complains.i'm werking on shift.sometimes i sleep during the day or during the night.so i need uninterrupted sleep.my room is a normal small hdb room.so about the sauna question,i dun think so.

my current conditions.

1 degree celsius takes about 1hr to cool down.

i set low set point-26C

high set point-28C

lighting-250W 20000k blv metal halide

LS-mostly LPS

decibels-about 15 Db(from my pillow):

-22 Db(bside the chiller):like a cd writer burning a cd

*tolerable Db for humans is max 80Db for 2hrs-similiar

to mrt passing by.

*beyond tis u will go NID-noise induced deficiency aka

deaf.

good luck...

The chiller is a simple black box.

Reef Relief uses an epoxy coated copper coil whereas Ti Relief uses titanium coil. The Ti R will naturally be more efficient.

You can get the latest and best price from dr chill himself.

I use the 1.2 HP RR and impress the performance too. My Tank size is only 2.5x1.5x1.5FT and in the VERY HOT weather, it took 1 hr and 10 mins to drop the temp from 27C to 25C and only start again after 2 hr when temp raised back to 27C. is wonderful

Save energy for us who using such a small tank as well hee...

my .5 rr chiller went too noisy last month and called dr. chill, told me it needs greasing and he would do servicing. next day his guy came knocking at my door with a stand by .5chiller to temporarily replace mine while they service it. guess aside from the 1.25 rr chiller issue the .5 model has no issue, and if it does go wrong, he can still be reached......

same over here..Dr Chill still respond to phone call and he came down with his technician down to my side previously also
