Here are some answers to your concerns:
Q: Does the chiller need maintenance?
A: Yes. Regular maintenance is required. Turn off and unplug the power before maintenance.
Q: Chillers generate a lot of heat around them when they are in use?
A: The compressor will release some heat during the cooling process, so we need to leave enough space between the chiller and the wall to dissipate the heat, at least 24''. Heat generation indicates that the compressor is working properly and will not cause damage.
