A thermoelectric device (75) may be thermally coupled to the tank to cool precursor liquid in the tank, and a heat pipe (76) may transfer heat from the thermoelectric device to a heat sink (77). The heat sink may be located remotely from the 77 thermoelectric device, e.g., in an air duct 76 that helps prevent contact of moisture, dirt, etc. in the duct with the thermoelectric device.
