Hi buddy
You always give good content and info thanks for you with proper explanations and Guidance
A chiller that also heats when required, sounds perfect! Excellent video once again Cam! 👍🏻
Hi Cam, another great video :-). As you know I love watching them.... The TK 2000 chiller looks great and the heat outlet is a fantastic feature! It would be interesting to see how you clean the inside of a chiller ;-)
I’ve watched just about all your videos and I’m learning everything I can from you guys, I’m gonna set up my tank soon! Cheers!
That’s awesome Bryan, let us know how it goes. Cam
Nice install. That chiller looks like a good one.
Awesome as always - looks like a great bit of kit.
congrats on 1M views. well deserved.
Great video yet again Cam! 😀👍
Thanks for watching Paul😊
Круто Вы замутили отвод горячего воздуха 👍
Merci pour ta vidéo mon ami !!! 👍👍👍
How can anyone thumbs down on this channel.
That's a pretty neat chiller. Need something like that here in the USA that isn't going to break the bank.
Great channel, keep up the great work. Happy New Year
It is important to have lots of hose doing this job, lol enjoyed that one even if it wasn't intentional.
G’ day Cam, long time no speak dude, great install as always and Teco are the best out there on the market for chillers, I’m about to upgrade my current DD chiller to a Teco 500 and seeing your Vid I can’t wait to get it. Currently heading into early summer here in the UK and the thermometer is on the rise mate. Cheers Cam 😀👍👍
Keep the great video's coming. I'm also about to hook a Teco chiller unit onto my tank (different way, but same thing). Why not add a few quick disconnects to make future maintenance easier?
That’s a brilliant idea. I think I’ll do exactly that. Cam
Great video. One thing though, the new R290 does not include a heater. At least not mine. It came with a note from Teco saying they cannot have a heater in the new R290. So everyone check that before buying!
Great video. That smile at 18:23 says there was a glory hole joke that didn’t make the final cut... 🤣👍🏾
You’re quite astute I believe.
Great job ! In Mexico few use chiller. Japi rifin
I’m surprised to hear in some countries they are rarely used. Almost every tank we maintain has a chiller in Australia. Cam
Hi I am interested in the teco chiller , may I ask where you can purchase the cupboard side venting fitting , which connects to the teco chiller , ! Is there a part number etc to look for as I can not find one
Oh you're a tease! There was another video before christmas! :D
There wasn’t supposed to be I promise! We just figured this might help move a few chillers on the last trading weekend before Christmas😂
@@GalleryAquaticaTV They are impressive pieces of equipment for sure. I'm gonna look into their cost and wattage to see if they are viable here in Denmark :D Merry Christmas
Cheers on the mutton chops grow them in thick m8 !
Nice work, I’ve got a Cade 2100 with teco 2000 in the side cabinet, it’s connected to my return manifold should the outlet water return back into the sump on the other end?
You might find you get slightly better temperature control if the chiller return goes back into the sump down the end with the drainage pipes and filter socks, but it doesn’t make a huge difference. I usually just return the chiller hose where it looks neatest and is most secure. Cam
@@GalleryAquaticaTV thanks champ
That exhaust is sure nice... problem solved
Amazing video as usual Cam! I do own the older model and this chiller is a beast! I do wonder however, when should the gas be replaced/refilled?
Good question. I’ve had some chillers for a long time and never refilled the gas...
It have a tube reductions in the package my friend. The R symbol on the instruction
Being a mechanic for a living seeing those spring hose clamps makes me cringe. Those are the WORST thing a mechanic can have to deal with. But aside from that your videos and work are amazing! I might have to get one of these chillers!
What site do you buy the candy cane pipe?
what temperature do yall keep y'alls house? why is there a need for a chiller when using leds and suck?
In Australia almost every reef tank needs a chiller. Most houses have aircon, but even this rarely prevents the need for chillers. Cam
What hysteresis do you recommend on the Teco?
I like his video where he does maintenance in a hotel but I can't find him
What is your water turn over? How many gallon per hour? Thanks!
It’s normally quite low with these chillers, around 200 GPH. Cam
@@GalleryAquaticaTV so you changed your pump as well to go that low? How does it fit the rule: at least 4 times turn over per hour when they allow up to 2000L aquarium?
211 gph is about 800L/h. That would mean we can only use for aquarium 800/4=200L ?
@@soulnight1606 I’ve never heard the rule 4 times turnover. There are so many other factors (mainly ambient temp and heat load) that I don’t normally worry about calculations as much as trial and error. I have had problems with chillers in the past when I try to push too much water through them so I’m probably a little conservative with my flow rates. Cam
@@GalleryAquaticaTV thanks again! What problems did you encounter?
So why don't you use the old chiller and just move it outside where can breathe
That was our first plan, but it was easier to replace it. Also the Hailea was very noisy. Cam
Lousy chiller..keep leaking
