What is the room temp? If you are in a warm climate that is likely to be the problem. With my aquapod I had to raise the top up about 8 inches and add a couple of fans, but I live in Florida and haven't taken the plunge with a chiller yet.
Let's see what the others say, but 81-82 is a bit high, but not critical IMHO. Depends largely on what is going in the tank. Some things like the water a bit colder (like my seahorses) and some like it a bit on the warm side. I'm pretty new though so lets see what the real experts have to say. I do know that consistancy is more important that the degree marker. So keep it consistant as much as you can.

Peace
