How affiliate links work
When ChillSizer is approved by a merchant or affiliate network, a normal product link may be replaced with a tracked affiliate URL. If you purchase through that link, ChillSizer may receive a commission from the merchant. The purchase price is generally set by the merchant and can change independently of ChillSizer.
Affiliate-enabled links are marked in the HTML with rel="sponsored" when the tracking link is active.
Commission does not affect the recommendation engine
The System Designer receives equipment specifications and user inputs such as BTU, flow requirement, pump curve, filter restriction, tub conditions and budget. It does not receive commission percentage, merchant payout, EPC, campaign status or other affiliate metrics.
This separation is intentional. A product should not become “recommended” because it pays more. If a lower-cost option clears the same engineering gates, the monetization layer does not have permission to reorder it.
Editorial comparisons
Buyer guides may include products for which ChillSizer has, may later obtain, or does not have an affiliate relationship. Inclusion is based on relevance and the availability of useful product information. Where evidence is incomplete, the page should say so rather than creating a false precision advantage for a monetized product.
Prices and availability
Product prices, discounts, bundles and stock can change quickly. ChillSizer therefore prefers “view current product details” links over hard-coding a price into engineering results. Any price mentioned in an article should be treated as a point-in-time reference and verified with the merchant before purchase.
Advertising
ChillSizer may also display third-party advertising on informational pages. Ads are kept separate from the recommendation engine. The core calculator results are designed to remain readable and useful without requiring a user to click an advertisement.
