chiller issue

[christan1959]

Hi my 10mth old 1/12hp chiller is taking much longer to pull down temperature (25 degrees in 160 litre tank lit by 6 T5 tunes). Do u think it's the hot weather lately or something wrong with my chiller. Used to take slightly over an hour to pull down from 26 to 25. Now taking same time to pull down 0.1 degree.

Thanks. I clean filter regularly. I can't get at the Fins unless I open thing up.

no worries to open it up, just fix it back.

Ok tks. I was told chiller must serviced once a yr. Where do we send Teco chillers for servicing? Also - how often to flush with vinegar solution to dissolve calcium build-up? Sorry for so many questions.
