There is a motor, there is a heat dissipation grid, everything from a refrigerator is there.... There is no clear certainty how all this will perform the assigned functions..... I ask for advice and criticism: Run about 10-15 coils of hose into the freezer compartment (the idea is not new, it's taken from aquarium stories). The hose, via an additional valve, will come from the external filter. Place the compartment in a polystyrene thermal box. And try to arrange it decently near the aquarium (a stand). Thermorelay = 26-27 C - activation of the fridge-like system. The grid, and accordingly the heat output, is right here in the room, behind the improvised refrigerator stand. The highest recorded temperature in the room was 29 C. If cooling the water with one computer fan achieves a 1-2C drop, then in this case with the refrigerator, we can also gain an advantage in such an important aspect as evaporation. Has anyone tried tinkering with such devices? What were the results? Or please advise on how to supplement this setup.

This unit can be complemented with a room air conditioner, achieving 100% effectiveness.

Yes, I don't mind. And most of all, I will be drinking chilled beer this summer. I just want to make such a device. (and then rent it out to those fishing for crucians)
