Abstract: A method of operating a water chiller (10) having a water tank (12), a cold water tap, and a condenser and fan (18). The chiller avoids freezing of the water in the tank (l2) by switching between `normal' and `protection' operating modes. The switching is initially triggered by checking the length of time since the cold water tap was last operated.
