Drop in chillers are usually not as efficient as in-line chillers.
fwiw

Why do you think that?

I have a 1/4 drop-in-chiller that worked flawlessly last summer and will use again. The tubing from the chiller to the coil is rather wider and less flexable than I thought it would be, but was manageable. The cooling coil is awkward also and takes up space. It is not a beauty to see in the tank, but it did its job. The main compressor usually has to be elevated off the floor on a wall bracket or table to be able to position the tubing and and coil. But, alas it did perform well. I live in the East village if you want to see it prior to purchase. Good Luck. David
