Cooling water temps (DWC)

[LochGee]

Ive done alot of searching through older posts, just wondering what the lastest and best/easiest way to chill the water temps of your res? Tell me how you chill your res

Would this be ideal for a 5 gallon bucket setup?

I've started to freeze blocks of R/O water, instead of adding water to top off my reservoir, ice through out the day is working surprising well for me. Also have a CoolWorks Ice probe helping but in the summer thats not quite enough to keep temps down as far as I would like them in a two tank system. The CoolWorks Ice probe works fine in a one tank DWC I'm running right now.

What are your current temps and so how much do you need to bring them down?

 

[LochGee]

My current temps only sit at max around 24c, want to bring them down to 20c

I run a 1/4hp chiller.. works great and thats for a 150 gallon res. Prolly get away with a 1/10hp chiller. If you got the $$

Where would i find a 1/10 hp chiller?
