Y'all probably will not recall, but some weeks ago, I posted a thread pertaining to my escalating water temp-our difficulty to keep the temp under 83F.

Based upon the input from the forum, I purchased two ultra-quiet audio component cooling fans (designed to mount in audio/video cabinets to cool components.)

Using a DremelTM tool, I cut two ports on the left rear side and right rear side of my canopy. used some screen as a safeguard and mounted the fans.

Results thus far are very positive. Water temp hovering around 80.5F.

Summer in Alabama will be the true test...more to follow.

Thanks for the assistance thusfar.

Fans definitely work. You'll get more evaporation, but sometimes it can be a good thing. Otherwise if it gets too bad a chiller might be the only option. ;)
