The item in my kit
I bought Express Water PC2000 Water Chiller as part of my camper van equipment.

Where it fits my build
My Day 87 plan put the body openings ahead of the aluminum framing, flooring and wall panels. I specifically included the shower drain and the openings for three water tanks in that order of work.
I removed cargo tie-down hardware to leave mounting points for the extrusion framing, and removed door trim for the later insulation and paneling. SketchUp helped me plan how those separate jobs would fit together.

My build notes
The useful part of this diary entry is the sequence. I wanted to finish the drilling while the interior metal was bare, so later work would not mean opening finished surfaces again.
The photographs show my preceding floor-preparation session. Sweeping, washing and removing residue created the starting point for the interior work I described next.
I planned the openings and mounting access before enclosing the interior.
Alternative products
Two alternatives to compare
Chiller Daddy uses another under-sink cabinet format. Elkay ECH8 is a larger remote chiller, making cabinet space and the connection layout important differences between the alternatives.
Chiller Daddy Under-Sink Water Chiller
This compact chiller places water-cooling equipment in an under-sink cabinet. Tubing connections link the cabinet to a separate dispensing faucet.
This remote chiller places the cooling equipment in a separate metal cabinet. Water connections link it to a dispensing arrangement outside the cabinet.
