J-Dog Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Does anyone know how to troubleshoot a chiller? I got home today and my chiller didn't seem to be working correctly. It was running, but it wasn't cooling the water. It usually gives off a lot of heat when it's running, but when I got near it, the unit was still cool. Everything looks fine, the feed pump is pumping water through the unit, it's just not cooling the water. Please help if u can (sad) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reefnjunkie Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Check the fins make sure they are not plugged up with dust etc. if all else fails you can buy my 1/10 hp or my 1/4 hp or my 1hp (whistle) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bicyclebill Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 The compressor sounds like it's not coming on. Not sure that there's anything you can do about it, except check internal for blown fuses. Not sure who you could take it to for repair. Reefnjunkie might be the answer. Actually, my chiller has finally stopped coming on because of our cooler weather thank goodness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
