1 HP Water Chiller - The Recovery Outlet

Quiet, Efficient Cooling for Indoor Water Systems

This high-efficiency chiller combines robust performance with quiet operation (~59 dBA), making it suitable for indoor environments where noise and stability matter. The titanium heat exchanger helps protect water quality by minimizing contact with copper and resisting corrosion, which is especially important for applications like aquariums, reef systems, and other clean-water loops. Designed to integrate with circulation pumps and standard plumbing, this unit brings dependable temperature control to demanding water-cooling scenarios so you can focus on your system’s performance, not the equipment behind it.

Cold Therapy Chiller - The Recovery Outlet

Designed for Stable Water Cooling Without Extra Power

The 1 HP High Efficiency (HE) Water Chiller is engineered to deliver stronger cooling without drawing more electricity. Its larger titanium heat exchanger increases heat transfer surface area, providing 11,500 BTU/hr of cooling while running on a standard household outlet. This means you get better performance than a standard 1 HP chiller with the same power consumption, making it ideal for larger water systems that need reliable temperature control without constant tinkering. The integrated digital controller monitors water temperature and adjusts output to maintain your set temperature, so your system stays consistent day after day.

FAQs

What is the 1 HP High Efficiency (HE) Water Chiller and how does it work?

The 1 HP High Efficiency (HE) Water Chiller is a Penguin Chillers refrigeration unit that pulls heat out of circulating water and holds it at your chosen temperature.

What are the power requirements for this chiller?

This unit runs on standard 110 to 120V power and draws 7.2A, so it fits a typical household outlet in most homes. Its compact footprint makes placement simple, and the high efficiency design helps it cool effectively. Confirm your local electrical setup before installation, and reach a Wellness Expert at 1 (800) 398-3770 if you would like guidance.

Is this chiller suitable for home or commercial use?

The 1 HP HE Water Chiller works well in home recovery spaces and serves light commercial settings where a single plunge or tank needs steady cooling. Its 11,500 BTU/hr output gives you dependable performance, and results vary with water volume, ambient temperature, and how often the water is used. Browse more options in our hot and cold therapy collection.

What makes the titanium heat exchanger important?

The titanium heat exchanger is the part of the chiller that transfers heat away from your water, and titanium resists corrosion exceptionally well. That durability means the chiller keeps performing in demanding, continuous applications, including reef tanks, hydroponics, and cold plunge water. It is a key reason this Penguin Chillers unit holds up over the long term.
