JBJ Artica Chiller DBA-075

[Tom14]

So I recently hooked up my jbj chiller and my 300 watt heater to an inkbird controller. Im wondering if anyone has any negative experiences where the chiller is turned off by the controller, and what happened? I have a 600 GPH pump constantly on pushing water through the chiller. Just wondering if it's bad for the chiller to be completely turned on and off every now and then by the controller? THANKS!

Chillers are designed to turn on and off (and not necessarily run 24/7) so you should be fine. You're running both a heater and chiller off the Inkbird, so as long as you have a bit of "wiggle room" with the tenperature parameters the chiller should only really kick-in when it's needed (such as an unusually hot day, etc.)
