I'm wondering the same thing, I'm at 78 deg now and wonder what summer will be like.

Murray, do you have an air conditioner for the room or do you point fans at the tank in the heat of the day.

I think the question needs one more element answered, too.... Is your tank on the main floor, or is it in the basement?

I don't have a chiller on any of my tanks. My 175g does have a basement sump which helps a lot but my 50g has 2 175w MHs, has no sump and is upstairs. I use clip on fans in the summer to keep the heat down

I'm not running a chiller, but there was a time in the summer when my tank got too warm. This was mainly due to the house being closed up and the house itself getting too warm. Tank is in the basement.
