Active Aqua Water Chiller with Boost, 1 HP, 90-172 Gal, Cold Plunge | Rapid digital temperature control with Boost mode chills large reservoirs, cold plunge tubs, and aquariums quickly

Purchased the 1HP chiller for my Ice Barrel 300 and it's worked perfectly! In reality, I probably could've purchased the 3/4HP which would have sufficed, but don't regret getting the 1HP. I was worried about the noise because it's right outside our dining room window but it hasn't been an issue at all. I needed to buy a couple adapters for the tub so that the diameter of the connecting tubes matched the ports on the chiller but was ultimately very easy. I have the chiller and circulation pump (purchased separately) on a timer so they turn on before I wake up. I use it every single morning and my only regret was not buying the whole setup earlier.!

I’ve been thru 3 of these now. I first bought a 1/2 hp and then needed to upgrade to a 1 hp because the summer(in my garage in Utah) heat proved to be too much for the 1/2 hp to keep the water lower than 50°. My first 1hp worked like a champ for 11 months and then it completely stopped cooling down the water. They warrantied that one and sent me a new one and exactly 11 months after that one was put into work it also quit working. The company now doesn’t respond to my inquiries or emails. I’ve been emailing them almost 3x a week since July 24th when mine stopped working again. Needless to say I’m furious after spending the amount of money this costs to have it not working !! They need to be held accountable for their products.

This is a real review, not paid. I bought the 1hp chiller along with a variable inline fan to help vent the unit as it's in my garage with the door open. I won't lie. If you spend this much money for a chiller, it better be worth it and in my case it has been. My suggestions. Buy an additional fan and keep air flow around the chiller as high as possible. Also - and you may not realize this when you buy it. It requires a powerful pump. You will buy said pump because the chiller requires it, just don't try and use the outflow to increase the overall flow of your hydro system! Even with thirty gallon containers connected via 3" pvc without any root obstructions in the lines, this pump will still overflow whatever container you put the outflow line in! 4" PVC *might* be large enough but I wouldn't risk it. Anyway, hands down this is the best chiller I've ever owned. Full stop.

Well, it worked fine for about a month. Then JUST after the time expired to return it, it kept and still keeps shutting off and blowing fuses in my house. Over $1300 and Amazon customer service leaves me no option but to troubleshoot myself with no real support and I can’t return it because it started acting up about three days after the 30 day return window. I’m infuriated to say the least!!!!!

Use this 1Hp chiller for my cold plunge and very impressed with the capacity of cooling larger amounts of water. My tank is 110 gallon and it handled it with ease. It has no pump so be sure to add a pump to your set up. I added a 2500 gph pump and this chiller handles it with no issue.

Works great. Hooked right up to my plunge and gave its life back.

It lasted ONE YEAR- then quit:/ I used it in the garage for my ICE PLUNGE barrel. It was good for exactly one year then suddenly stopped cooling. Extremely loud and always seem to run a bit hot. Way to expensive. Not worth it. PENGUIN has a good one with a built in pump and a hose conversion solution that I am impressed by.

Just got this unit setup to replace my old chiller and to my horror, it runs at about 65 decibels. Now I don't know what they intended as quiet, but that is not quiet. Granted, it seems efficient and really wouldn't run all the time but when it does, you are very aware of it. I'm really bummed because it has so many good reviews. Maybe I got a loud one?? It was really easy to setup and easy to program but holy cow...needless to say it's getting returned.
