1/2HP for 385$?

Any thoughts?

I read the reviews and everyone seems to be really happy with them...

Looks like they use an aluminum alloy for the heat exhange coils. Most of the other manufactures claim theirs are titanium. Not sure how much of a difference this would make.

I sent him a question, asking about the saltwater/aluminum problem, his response was"

"It is based under titanium, that why it is marine grade"

Can someone translate that for me?

Translation= BS!

The coils need to be titanium. This unit looks like a window a/c unit, painted black, with an aluminum coil welded in. Not worth it IMO.

I went through all the feedback and thats almost word for word what one of the negative feedbacks was...

It what I thought also.. A modded AC unit that had a nice coat of spray paint on it..

That's awesome!

That's almost exactly what I'm going to do for a chiller... with one exception... I will be using a titanium coil...
