I bought this used from a fellow boardmember spring 2011.
(not sure how long it was used for by him)

anyhow, i just got around to try setting it up. bought a bunch of pvc and fittings to hard plumb it. sure enough, i dont have enough power to run this thing. i was even going to run a new breaker for it, but after checking the panel i used the last slot already adding a breaker for the lights a few years back.

so i'll let this go for $300 obo. will throw in the plumbing that i just bought, mostly 3/4". (roughly $60-80 worth)

Local pick up only!

Their site doesn't list it, but my 1/2hp chiller pulls 9 amps.

not too sure. but i'd guess it'd be very similar to what Brad was seeing.

Why dont you just take out a smaller breaker and double up on one that is used only for a small amount of lughts in your place. Very easy to do

Doubling up wires on a breaker in your panel is against Canadian Electrical Code. Has to be done in a junction box outside the panel box.

Do you have any way to get it to the island by any chance?

Thanks Brad. I actually have an Eshine 60w unit too that I won't really need once I transfer my tank contents. That date is still TBD though. I wonder if half a horse is big enough for my setup too. I'd like to have it just in case though.

I have a 1/2HP that I bought from Franko. He thought it was just slightly too small for his tank. Yours is only a 1/4 of his, so I think you should be good with a 1/2HP
