The main reason for my chiller is my husband hates the sound of any fan. So, I have a chiller in the basement with the rest of the life support and the tank is upstairs in the main room. He is happy, tank is happy. Sometimes it it worth the extra money.
If the chiller were in the same room with the tank it would never go over for noise issues.
