Ahhhh........

Yup.
I use to keep my tank at 78-79 with no chiller either with the house at 75 but man did I go through water.
It took fans blowing at the top and fans on the wet dry to stop the moisture from wrecking the wood.
I would go through one gallon of water a day v. about 2 a week with the chiller.
Good thing you don't have a canopy as it would warp from the moisture.
