Do you think the heat from the garage would affect the chiller?

It depends on how hot the garage gets. The hotter the ambient air, the less well the chiller works. Any way to install it outside? That where I have mine located. Keeps the heat exchanger by the chiller out of the house.
 
Went ahead and ordered one. Can not get the temp down during the day with multiple fans,etc. Went ahead with the JBJ 1/3hp chiller. Hope it makes a difference.
 
Less than 2.5 hrs and it went from 81.7 to 78. Wow this is going to be a great addition. Should I keep it at 78 or 79 degrees? If I am reading this correctly then if it is set at 78 then it will turn on at 79 and off at 77 correct?
