I don't envision a need to change. I live in IL on the second floor, and my place gets pretty darn toasty until I turn the air on. The temp of 81 itself isn't necessarily disconcerning, but if you anticipate it will continue to climb as external temps climb it may be useful. I knew when I bought my 250 that I faced this issue, and I bought the chiller right out of the gates. It has been a very good investment for me. Various members deal with this situation differently, but in my experience the one time investement offset a lot of sleepless nights. My family is away from the home very frequently, and the consistency of the chiller is a big advantage.
