I am cofused on what you want people to tell you different then what has been repeated numerous times. I will tell you what you want to hear and you can say that Jlem told you so because I know more than the 99% of people who have advised you already.
I think you should build an airtight box and put the box in a tub of ice. Then you will hve no heat issues what so ever :thinking: :yes: :hilarious

i have a 135 2x400w MH. yes canopy. 4.5" fans on each end. I could probably do it through the window, but then how will i close the window and it will look ghetto. BUt its a good though. I will tell my parents.

just run two lines out throught the window, close the window and seal it with weather stripping. I did it at m yold house, it looked alright. You could raise the chiller so its stitting at window hight.

. I hope he lets me do it soooooo bad.

Is your tank on the ground floor? Do you have a crawl space under your house. I installed my chiller in the crawl space and drilled two holes under my tank next to the sump (one for a feed hose the other a return), I have a pump that sends water to the chiller and back. This way the holes are not visible and I kept the size to 3/4" so it would be easy to repair if needed.

i dont have a crawl space but found the best way for me to use it. Iam just waiting till my dad is in a good mood to ask him
Wish me luck!
