Chiller Died - What to do now?

have you cleaned out the fins on the condenser? Also, the fan I have is almost inside the unit. I also put a fan across the back to evacuate the hot air coming out

Has yours always made a loud clunk when it shuts off Brad?

So I put one fan in front of it and one fan behind it and it's still kicking off at 82. I think the water has got a bit hotter since I plugged the chiller back in too.

mine took a while to drop down, but it does now stay at 79

When I left the house this morning, it was starting to drop slowly. I placed a cold air fan right in the front and another fan behind it to dispose of the hot air like you said. It seemed to be working. What is it that I'll need to replace?

The motor for the fan needs to be replaced, $45 +s/h.
