  1. Hi ok i guess i wasnt clear... (pump used and location for chiller is exactly same)

    previously (1/2 HP chiller):

    takes 1.5hrs at least to chill 1 dc

    kicks in about 1.5hrs later -.-

    now (1/3 artica)

    takes 40mins max to chill down 1dc

    kicks in not at least 2 hrs later

    :)

  2. Tank estimated volume: 380l (max) 3ft x2.5x2.8 tank with 3 ft sump that is 1/3 lvl (same pump, same chiller location)

    I set my new artica 1/4 chiller to kick in 28DC and cut off at 27DC

    Hmm interestingly... was initially using a 1/2hp chiller (will not state brand cos might offend ppl).. set it to the same as above.. and it took 1.5-2hrs to chill down 1 DC and would kick in again 1.5hrs or earlier after a while (had it serviced regularly)...

    After switching to artica... it take 30-40min to chill (somewat longer at nite) and wont kick in 2-2.5hrs (2hrs during lights on) later...

    this is wat i gathered from observing it closely as its a new setup Not sure about the wattage either uses... but was really impressed after switching..
