Chiller has stopped Chilling

[xabo]

My Pacific Coast CL-1000 chiller has stopped cooling the tank. I have it set for 79 degrees but it will only cool to 81-82. It's putting out heat as the room heats up but the water does not cool down. Low on Freon?

When was the last time you cleaned the car-radiator type grill the coolant circulates through and the air is drawn over. I was using a brush & air duster over the years to clean mine, or so I thought, but that only really got one side. About a month ago I took it outside & borrowed neighbor's air compressor, took the cover off and really blew some air on the radiator. Lots of dust & other stuff blew off it. Unit is working like it was new again.

You were right........Thanks:

That's always the culprit when one of mine otherwise seems to be working fine.

That's 10-15 years of build up.

LOL. Mine is usually a combination of dust and dog hair, and has to be cleaned every month or so.
