Well, many tanks don't need a chiller at all, so maybe you'll be lucky. The problem with enclosing the chiller is that it vents a lot of hot air. Some fans in the stand might help.

Yea it seems fine. My chiller is right next to my stand and I have no problems with it. Just make sure the vents aren't blocked and you're good to go. Mine ran when the sun came up until the sun went down this past summer and never encountered a problem.
