Default Pelt Powered Chiller

I got an idea to make a chiller that cools water with an array of low powered pelts. It would be a cube-like design, with the pelts being mounted on the outside of the 4 walls of the cube. Then have big heatsincs attached to that.
Please refer to the picture.

I am currently considdering useing 4 smaller 36W pelts (1 on each wall of the cube). Is this a good amount of cooling power? (too much? too little?)

Also, any issues with condensation? This will be mounted to the top of the case with 9 bolts. I will sandwitch a layer of neoprene in between for insulation, and noise dambening.

Also, anyone have an idea for a cover to this? I cant think of anything in terms of mountng or clasping it shut.


Thanks in advance for any help.
