Default Aquarium Chiller Repairs

Does anyone out there have any idea on where one could get a chiller repaired? or where to find spare parts? I have a Current USA Prime 1/10hp and 1/15hp Chillers that refuse to cool after 1-Year of use. They both seem to stop working after approximately 1-year of use. The thermostat works fine, the compressor is running but both chillers refuse to cool. I have already sent back one 1/15hp chiller that was under warranty to the place that it was purchased for the same problem. I don't believe that these chillers are made to last because they run well for approximately 1-year and then without any sign of trouble they simply stop cooling even with the compressor still running. Thank god the digital thermostat shows the water temperature or you'd never realize that the unit has stopped cooling.

I suggest you try an Air Conditioning or Fridge repair shop, the insides of the chillers are not very different than these. Good luck.
