Your canister flow rate is slow hence water pushed into the chiller is slow hence taking a long time to chill 1 degree. Should seriously consider to upgrade your canister

Put it at the back of the chiller so s to draw the hot air out from the cabinet..

The fan pointing at the rear?won't that blow back the hot air?

As much as possible,best is nt to change canister..however which ehiem canister would b good for the hailea 150 chiller?

try get a flowrate of 950 to 1000LPH for ehiem canister.

Now the chiller takes about 30 to 40mins to go dwn frm 25 to 24,then hover around 90mins to 100mins back to 25..is this ok? But I'm thinking because these two days raining might play a part

Looks ok. Mine takes 30min to cool from 25.5 to 24.5 then rest about 90min. These few days weather cooler so likely my chiller can rest for 2hrs before starting again.
Just monitor when the weather gets back to normal.

Ok..need to monitor,only scared hot weather will get worst
